LOCALS took on former professional boxer Marvin Greaves at the weekend in a sparring event to raise money for the family of a popular teenager who was stabbed to death last month.
The charity event took place at Team Greaves Gym, Bourne Street, Hathershaw, on Saturday to help pay for the funeral of Tommy Bilton.
The 19-year-old died at the Royal Oldham Hospital after he was found stabbed in Ashton Road, Oldham, on August 15.
People took on the former boxer in two minute sparring bouts at his gym.
