TAB backs fight against prostate cancer
The TAB is in the corner of the Prostate Cancer Foundation of New Zealand in its fight against a disease that affects thousands of Kiwi men every year.
PCFNZ has received the TAB’s $10,000 profit from wagering on last weekend’s Fight for Life charity boxing event, which saw rugby and rugby league stars duking it out for the cause.
TAB bookmaker Mark Stafford said punters’ interest had been piqued by Fight for Life, with betting turnover on par with a top-flight Super rugby match.
“That was a reflection of the quality matchups on the night, but, more importantly, a big show of support for the amazing work the Prostate Cancer Foundation does in educating people about men’s health and helping those affected by prostate cancer.”
