Real Roman gladiator

An employee from shower manufacturer Roman has helped raise more than £6,000 for charity by participating in a white-collar boxing match.

Retail development manager David Finn challenged an old school friend to the charity fight, which took place this month.

The night saw 10 different fights take place, all consisting of three rounds of two minutes each. All the proceeds were to go towards raising money to send a young boy with Leukaemia to America for treatment. Unfortunately he passed away before this could happen, so his parents will choose a worthwhile charity for the money to go to.

Mr Finn, who lost around three stone thanks to the rigorous training regime, next plans to run up Snowdon for charity.
