Former boxer and five time heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield has joined forces with Prostate Cancer Foundation by featuring in the charity's new public service announcement, which is encouraging African-American men to get regularly checked for prostate cancer.

Holyfield commented 'We want to tell people to spread the word and encourage their fathers, brothers, sons and friends to get checked for prostate cancer. This is an issue that affects all men and is in line with our mission to partner with incredible organizations and invest in their important work. I'm honoured to go the distance for the Prostate Cancer Foundation. Together, we can spread the word and hopefully knock out prostate cancer for good'.
