Boxing for a Father's Legacy | Sheffield News

Thirty-one-year-old Sharee Hawrood from Doncaster stepped into the boxing ring not for glory, but to honor her late father Richard, who passed from a heart attack last year — and to raise funds for the British Heart Foundation. Trained for eight weeks, she embraced the challenge, even earning the nickname “Mini Rico” in tribute to her dad.
