One Punch Can Change a Life

My name is Raphael Butler, I’ve been in the ring as an amateur boxing champion, a professional boxer, and a professional MMA fighter. Combat sports shaped me. They taught me discipline, gave me purpose, and helped me survive the hardest chapters of my life.

Now, I’m giving back, to the community that made me, and to the sport that saved me.

I’m launching One Punch Boxing Club in Rochester, Minnesota, a place where youth (ages 8–18) and adults (18+), fighters and non-fighters alike, can walk through the door and start fighting for something greater: their confidence, their future, their life.

Some of our members will chase championship belts. Others will just need a safe space to sweat, heal, or escape the pain they carry. And every single one of them will leave stronger.

But I can’t do this without you.

We’re raising money to:
• Secure and equip a gym
• Provide gloves, gear, and training for all levels
• Offer structured youth and adult programs
• Cover food, travel, and keeping the amateur program affordable.

One Punch Boxing Club is more than a gym. It’s a home for underdogs. It’s mentorship in motion. It’s the next generation of champions, inside the ring and out.

This is for Rochester.
This is for the boxing and combat sports community that gave me everything.
Now it’s my turn to give back.

Be a part of something powerful.
