Boxing champ Danny Green has donated a pair of signed boxing gloves to the Bid4jase.com auction site.
The three-time world champ, a huge motor racing fan, was saddened by the news of Richards’ cancer plight and has donated a prized pair of his famous green gloves.
“Absolutely, no dramas at all,” Green said.
“I was terribly sad to hear the news about Jason and I am glad I can help out. It is an awesome idea.”
The gloves were organised by Riana Crehan, V8 Supercars big screen host and partner of Will Davison.
“Danny is a good friend of mine as I have worked with him for a number of years with his Green Machine Promotions,” Crehan told Speedcafe.com.
“I gave him a call and asked if he could help us out with donating something for the auction website. He was absolutely delighted to help. He is a huge motorsport fan and obviously very saddened by the news of Jason Richards.”
As a pre-event publicity stunt, Green got the privilege of driving Paul Morris’ Fujitsu V8 Supercar at Barbagallo Raceway – and he spun off the track. CLICK HERE to see Speedcafe.com’s news story and video after the drive.
