The X Sports complex on George Bishop Parkway in Myrtle Beach is offering a free boxing camp from 6:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. for kids 10-18 years of age.

The camp is being hosted by former World Heavyweight Champion James "Bonecrusher" Smith. The kids are learning boxing techniques, fitness and life skills.

Bonecrusher founded his charity, Champion For Kids, in 2004 to mentor kids around the world. He is also planning to build a Boxing Legends Hall of Fame Museum in Myrtle Beach that will be the home for his after-school boxing program for kids and an international boxing club to train young boxers.
