Who says boxing is a dying sport?
The Golden Gloves, which already had to add a Friday night fight card to alleviate the logjam of bouts that have made Tuesdays a loooooong night for those in attendance, have added another night of boxing to the docket.
With 31 fights scheduled next week, organizers scheduled a "Thursday Night Boxing" night at Lowell Memorial Auditorium this week. Tournament Director, Bill Hoar, is pleased at the number of young fighters taking up the sport and willing to put themselves out there in such a public and prestigious tournament.
So if you can't make it on the regularly scheduled night Tuesday, perhaps you might want to head down to the box office Thursday and take in yet another night of exciting ring action. Take it from someone who knows...there isn't a more exciting sporting event around!
