Dear Sirs:

There were regular boxing shows at the Sunnyside Gardens (Queens Boulevard and 45th street) from the 1940's(?) until at least 1980. I attended many shows there including the pro debut of Gerry Cooney in 1977 on "Howard Davis Night" with Ronnie Harris fighting the main event against James Parks.

There wa also boxing at the gym at Queens boulevard off of Woodhaven boulevard in Elmhurst. I don't recall the name they used for that sight.
