We started the Coward Punch Campaign in 2012 to raise awareness of the devastating impact of the coward's punch in society. Since then, I've been overwhelmed at the support we've received from countless athletes, community leaders, politicians and everyday Australians joining the fight to stop the coward's punch. As a professional boxer, I know better than most what can happen when you punch someone - but there is a world of difference between contesting athletes stepping into the ring with rules and referees and punching an unsuspecting victim with no protection. A cowards punch is exactly that, cowardly. It doesn't matter how upset or angry you are in the moment, there is no excuse for such a gutless act. The Stop the Coward Punch Campaign looks to educate people of the risks so they don't make a choice they'll regret for the rest of their lives. If I can make even one person think before striking out, that's a victory.
