For charity, firefighters will battle police in Smoke and Guns MMA, boxing event

Oklahoma firefighters will take on Oklahoma police officers in the fifth annual Smoke and Guns charity MMA and boxing event scheduled Saturday, April 21, at the BOK Center.

Tulsa's best will go toe-to-toe in the ring to benefit the Oklahoma Firefighters Burn Camp and Oklahoma Special Olympics. A news release said more than $30,000 was donated to the two organizations in Smoke and Guns' fourth year.

Tickets are on sale at bokcenter.com, the Arby's box office at the BOK Center or by calling 1-866-7-BOKCTR.

The Oklahoma Firefighters Burn Camp benefits children that suffer major burns and other traumatic injuries that cause disfiguration and disabilities. Several camps in the U.S. help these children cope with their injuries.

Special Olympics provides year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills and friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes and the community.
