Dr. John "The Blood Pressure" Boccio is a family practice Physician with Bethpage Primary Medica Care and Winthrop University Hospital. John has been the Ringside Physician for Fight for Charity Main Events in the past, but this year he is entering the ring as one of the volunteer boxers.
“I’ve seen the boxers, during and after the Main Events over the past several years. I can tell you – nothing prepares a man or woman for the amount of sweat and work that goes into the training necessary to be ready for the Main Event. Once the boxers face their opponents in the ring, they show their stamina, confidence and prowess," John said.
John convinced his wife Paula, two children and patients that he wasn't joking around about being a boxer at this year's Main Event. "I'm doing this for me and of course for charity. The only thing I'm worried about if fitting through the ropes".
Jon has a big day celbrating his "minutes in teh ring," boxing for charity, and his son’s 10th birthday.
