Haymakers for Hope (H4H) is thrilled to host their 13th annual Belles of the Brawl Boxing Charity event at the MGM Music Hall in Fenway on Wednesday, Oct. 14, 2026. Tickets are on sale now for this legendary all-women’s boxing event in the organization's home base, with doors opening at 6:30 p.m. and fights beginning at 7:30 p.m. 

This fall, twenty-six brave, courageous women living and working in the Greater Boston area will compete in boxing matches throughout the night, against equally skilled opponents to help raise money for cancer research, awareness, survivorship, and care. These local business leaders and community members are stepping outside their comfort zones and into the ring, joining a diverse group of everyday individuals with a shared goal of wanting to fight for a cure for cancer. Each individual trains individually and within small, intimate groups, learning the fundamentals of the sweet science while creating lasting bonds with their trainers and Haymakers for Hope colleagues.

Of those twenty-six women, Ashland resident Lori Flynn will be fighting for a cure. Lori first attended the event in 2021 and immediately fell in love with everything about the organization. Lori is a 5- year breast cancer survivor, and she is honored and beyond excited to be able to step into the ring with a group of amazing women and raise money for a cause so near and dear to her heart. “Not only will I fight for myself, but for 2 of my best friends who have been in my corner since day one. We are stronger together; no one fights alone. Please consider donating to the cause that so many struggle with. No family should have to go through this battle,” Lori stated. 

Since having their first event in 2011, Haymakers for Hope has raised over $42 million for cancer research, awareness, survivorship, and care. The women gearing up for their boxing debut at this year’s event have raised over $175K and counting! Participants have the chance to train at local partner gyms over the course of four months, culminating in a live fight night at the state-of-the-art MGM Music Hall, performing in front of a sold-out crowd and fighting for a cure.
