Despite never having had prior fitness training. B105 Breakfast Funny Guy Stav Davidson has just spent the last 10 weeks preparing for a boxing match in Bowen Hills, to raise money for cancer research.
The match is the first-ever for Stav Davidson and he is all set to take on Will “The Frost” Cruise on Saturday, 2 April 2022, at 12:30 p.m. inside the Royal International Convention Centre at the RNA Showgrounds.
The fundraiser is for the benefit of the Small Steps for Hannah Foundation, which was started by the family of Hannah Clarke following her and her daughter’s tragic death. Ms Coleman is close to the Clarke family and she nominated Mr Davidson for this charity boxing match. This was 10 weeks before the actual event and Mr Davidson has been training since then.
The funny guy, who has adopted the nickname “Radioactive” for this boxing match, wanted to help his friend, breakfast co-host Abby Coleman, who asked Mr Davidson to literally fight for this cause.
Mr Davidson and Mr Cruice, who is 26 and works in finance, he’s been training and sparring together in the past weeks. They didn’t know until recently that they were going to be matched up.
Mr Cruice, however, quipped that he’s confident that he will knock out Mr Davidson by the second round.
“I don’t know if I can win or not,” Mr Davidson replied. “But the goal is to go for three rounds.”
The charity boxing match, after all, is about raising money and promoting fitness as well.
The evening will be billed as classic, Las Vegas Fight Night – men will don tuxedos and women will wear formal dresses, and there will be all in between.
In a nod to Stav’s Scottish heritage, the Scotland-born radio host will be walked out by the Queensland Police Pipes & Drums mini-band (2 bagpipers and 2 drummers) – accompanied by four Scottish Dancers!
The fight will be on Sportsbet, where the odds are stacked against the Funny Guy.
Fight for a Cause is hosting the event. Check for tickets on the official site.
