Support Young Las Vegas MMA Fan In His Fight With Leukemia

July 31, 2008

“Brandon Rayner is a fighter. No, he’s not a newcomer to the UFC, scheduled to compete on one of the organization’s upcoming cards, but the 10-year old Las Vegas native’s courage and determination will serve him even better than a Chuck Liddell right hand in his battle against leukemia.

…..he is looking for a hand from the mixed martial arts community, not only by having people register as bone marrow donors, but by having the fans of the sport get the word out as he looks to set a new world record for most business cards collected.

Business cards can be sent to Brandon Rayner at Sunrise Children’s Hospital, Attention: Pediatric Oncology, 3186 S. Maryland Parkway, Las Vegas NV 89109. The deadline to send in cards is August 15, 2008.”
