Kenny 'Fast Buck' Wilson fights for Intact Software

Go back

Forty contestants, representing local businesses in Dundalk, are fighting for their respective companies in Strictly Come Boxing this week. The event, organised by Dundalk Chamber of Commerce and promoters 'White Collar Boxing' is taking place on March the 12th in the Fairways Hotel to raise funds for The Birches Alzheimer's Day Care Centre.

Kenny 'Fast Buck' Wilson is the brave volunteer from Intact Software taking up the challenge. "It's something I've always wanted to have a go at but I didn't realise the work involved when I signed up! The training is very tough but necessary if I'm going to do myself proud on the night."

In preparation for the big fight night, the contestants started training back in January with the coaches at the Dun Dealgan Boxing Club. Although it was hard work, Ken is pleased with his current level of fitness and hopes to maintain it by either continuing to box or by taking up karate or kick boxing.

The night will be attended by the contestant's supporters, work colleagues, family and friends to cheer them on. With the level of interest in the competition, the tickets sold out quickly but a contingent from Intact Software will be there supporting Ken on his big night.
