Kayla Glaser has been diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis, an incurable and rare genetic disease. Patients with her condition have an exceptionally low life expectancy. Kayla needs monthly mediaction, treatment and procedures for the rest of her life.
That’s where comedians Siv Ngesi and Brendan Murray come in. The duo are planning to step into the ring at Cape Town MMA gym. All the proceeds of the fight will be going to charity. Yep, they’re taking punches to the face for baby Kayla.
The pair are fighting it out in a bid to raise R20 000 for Kayla, who is in desperate need of a Klapper vest, which will help move mucus off of her lungs.
The night will feature comedic sets from both fighters, and will end with Ngesi and Murray battling it out in the ring.
When: 30 April 2013
Where: Pride Fighting Academy, Gardens
How much: Tickets cost R150 (all proceeds donated to Kayla’s treatment), and will include welcome drinks and snacks on arrival.
