| World Champion George Foreman helped Chicago's Broker Boxing Foundation knock out teen delinquency with a $50k donation to the George Foreman Youth Center. Maron Electric's Eric Nixon and David Goldberg presented George with the check Thursday night at the House of Blues, where 11 bouts of Golden Glove boxing between brokers drew a crowd of 1,200. | |
| We snapped Zifkin Realty's Kevin "The Butcher" List getting ready to take a swing at NAI Hiffman's Justin "Supersonic" Smith in bout No. 4. Justin won, as did his colleagues who just closed on a 45k SF single-story office asset in Aurora for Barnett Capital. Zifkin can also hold its head up high: it just repped the landlord in a 16k SF lease to Save-A-Lot at Western and Marquette. | |
| In the crowd, we snapped just-married Jones Lang LaSalle couple Courtney and Jason Trombley. They met at work, where she's doing project management on worldwide rebrandings of Fortune 500 companies and repositioning the Deloitte campus. | |
| In bout No. 2, we snapped Belcaster Commercial Contractors' Paul "The Pummeller" Belcaster taking on Maron Network's David "Old School" Anteliz. This is the ninth annual broker boxing event and organizers said it's drawing the same crow as it did three years ago, despite the recession. |
