Legend, stars and big names in boxing are all in New York this week and today and tonight for the big Fatal Fury card in Times Square in NYC.
An iconic night and an iconic venue for the entire sport, a culimination of a lot of work between various people, stake holders and organizations across different georgraphies.
All culminating in some great fights tonight in New York.
Per the above, Mike Tyson, Roberto Duran, Bernard Hopkins and fighters from the UK like Derek Chisora, Conor Benn and more are all there.
What a fight and occasion for an otherwise for dark time for a city and place in New York that has been in dramatic decline as a global destination for over a decade now, crippled by bad crime rates, illegal migration and more.
Boxing will shine a light for a place that use to mean something years ago back in its good days.
Boxing and New York will always put on great fights — always have and always will.
Las Vegas will always be the fight capital of the world though.
