"I chose to be involved with WA Charity Direct as it aims to reach those people that I do, those that don't have marketing budgets to attract larger corporation donation dollars. Many cases slip through the net and WA Charity Direct aims to help those that are forgotten and/or overlooked. As such I am proud to be associated with a cause that cares. Let's make a difference.

Biography
The Green Machine is the likeable larrikin that grew up in The West's beach side suburb of Doubleview. He took up boxing at the late age of 18 when attending a pre season training session with his brother with Pat Develerz, who then went on to train him during his amateur career.
Danny won numerous state titles before moving to the AIS to train for the Commonwealth Games and Olympics. After the 2000 Olympics he was approached by triple world champion Jeff Fenech to turn professional. As they say, the rest is history!
