This marks its seventeenth anniversary. Rudy is having a plaque made to honor the memory and life work of Don Jose. There will also be a giant cake commemorating this anniversary, which Rudy says will recognize, honor, and laud local boxing talent.

Aguilera, Hall of Fame author and famed boxing historian; Champion Greg Puente, number one super bantamweight from the Main St. Gym, who will also be an MC.
Sugar Shane Mosley will attend, and also appearing will be Jimmy Gambina from the movie Rocky, celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Rocky movie.
