# Rock 'N Rumble X: Christian Doskocil

## Friday, July 23 2021

---

**During the coming months, we’ll be highlighting our fighters in training for the upcoming Rock ‘N Rumble X in Boston on October 13th. They’ve committed to four months of fundraising and training in preparation to get in the ring and literally fight for a cure. Whether their mom is battling, their father has passed or their friend has put up a victory against the disease – they’ve all got a story to tell and they’ve all got a reason to fight. Below you’ll hear from Christian Doskocil fighting out of Camp Get Right.**

*Where are you from?*  
Worcester, Massachusetts

*Where did you go to college?*  
WPI

*Did you play any sports growing up?*  
Baseball and Football

*What do you do for work?*  
Construction Project Manager

*Why boxing? Did you ever picture yourself fighting?*  
For the cause- if someone can fight cancer I can step into the ring to help KOCancer. I absolutely did not picture myself fighting...

*Why on earth did you sign up to fight??*  
I'm grateful that a coworker of mine is a Haymakers for Hope alumni and encouraged me to apply.

*You’re stepping in the ring to literally fight for a cure - where are you drawing your inspiration from? How has cancer affected you?*  
I never had the opportunity to meet my grandmother who was taken by cancer before I was born. Now I have the opportunity to step into the ring and fight for her and all others impacted by cancer.

*What is going to be the most difficult thing to give up during your training? (beer, cheeseburgers, time spent watching TV?)*  
Nighttime dessert Netflix and Chill. Weekend wings and beers. TGIF's Frozen Buffalo Chicken Tenders.

*When you’re not throwing punches and training -- what other hobbies/interests do you have?*  
Spending quality time with my wife and 7 month old daughter. Weekend adventures in New Hampshire- hiking, grilling and boating.

*Who do you think is the most excited to watch you get punched in the face come fight night?*  
My former college baseball teammates ... definitely not my wife ...

**Check out his [fundraising page](https://haymakersforhope.org/event/boston/2021/rock-n-rumble-x/christian-doskocil) and be sure to wish him luck! Best of luck, Christian!**
