This could give "take one for the team" a new definition. Funds raised during the World Xtreme Boxing Challenge (WXBC) will benefit local charities in Des Moines, Iowa. The WXBC pits eight participants in a day-long tournament of mixed martial arts (MMA), a sport known for its blood and savagery.

Fighting For A Better World, the charity division of DH Global, Boxing Promotions, plans to donate $25,000 to the Des Moines Area Religious Council Food Pantries (DMARC) and the City of Des Moines Community Services Division. The two charities were chosen since the inaugural tournament will be at the Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines on Aug. 29 and the area suffered through major flooding this past spring.

Fighting For A Better World officials said the organization will donate funds from each future World Xtreme Boxing Challenge to a select charity or cause, raising money through the community, sponsors and advertisers.
