Brooklyn-born former WBA Welterweight World Champion Luis Collazo is dedicating his crucial Super Bowl Week fight against former World Champion and crossover star "Vicious" Victor Ortiz to The NephCure Foundation, a kidney disease non-profit with which he has a special connection.
The two-time New York City Golden Gloves Champion (34-5-3, 17 KO's), now a 32-year-old veteran hunting another world title opportunity, will wear www.NephCure.org on his robe and
trunks for the main event of the Thursday, Jan. 30 show live on FOX Sports 1 and FOX Deportes in honor of 15-year-old Allie Genatt, who suffers from the incurable kidney disease FSGS. Genatt, who underwent a kidney transplant at age 11, lives in Brookville, Long Island and is a prime mover in advocating for more research to find better treatments and a cure for her affliction.
