Everyday a man dies from testicular cancer in the United States while every hour another man is diagnosed. Testicular cancer is the number one cancer killer of men in their 20’s and 30’s.
The mission of Besties with Testies is to be activity promoting public interest and awareness in testicular cancer by informing the public in the field of early detection and self-examination, and providing tools and resources to testicular cancer awareness educators and advocates and testicular cancer patients and survivors via the internet and through organizing, conducting and attending projects and events to raise funds for testicular cancer awareness.

Chris Camozzi, UFC Middlewight said, “I’m very excited to start working with Besties with Testies. I’m honored to be the first spokesperson for the organization. As a young man only 25 myself I can personally relate to those at risk and want to help let young men everywhere know about how to catch testicular cancer before it can spread throughout your body.”
Paul Gibson, Marketing Director of Besties with Testies had this to say, “The war on Testicular Cancer is an uphill battle due to major lack of awareness currently in the United States. This disease is killing more men than any other cancer under the age of 40, but is almost completely curable! We are excited to have Chris come on board and take awareness up a notch and help us save lives, knocking out testicular cancer death and making the disease submit, just like Chris does to opponents in the ring!”.
