“Twelve years ago Bo said she wanted to have a boxing match to raise money for the foundation,” Dick Marconi said at the 12th Annual Fight Night at the Marconi Automotive Museum in Tustin on Friday night. “But I told her not to do it. She’d lose money,” Marconi cautioned. The naysayer was a former Golden Gloves champ, who had kept his ties to boxing over the years and knows its history of corruptness. The outcome? Because Bo was in charge of the foundation and wanted to raise money for kids, she persisted and netted $70,000 that first Fight Night. “It was worth it,” she said, in talking to her over the weekend and finding out that Friday’s event netted an amazing $500,000, in spite of a fledgling economy.
