'Box NYC: Round 2' Delivers Thrills!
NEW YORK CITY - It was a night filled with exciting ring action – Jameson Bostic knocked out Antonio Tiribio in the first, Derric Rossy won over Corey Gregory on a TKO in the second and headliner Joey Rios prevailed in a clash of undefeateds, out-pointing Marty Robbins in a unanimous decision. In between the fisticuffs, a tasteful and tantalizing lingerie show from Huit Lingerie kept the crowd’s attention. And a cigar lounge complete with a free-standing humidor welcomed guests to savor a selection of Nat Sherman’s best.
BOX NYC delivered a second knock-out combination of exciting fights, fine drinking and dining, high stakes poker and lingerie show titillation, in an atmosphere that would make old Las Vegas and Havana proud. And to add substance to high style, BOX NYC raised over $40,000 for the Lance Armstrong Foundation (LAF)
Held in the Hammerstein Ballroom, BOX NYC offered a respite from the cold with hot competition, prizes and entertainment. Companies like Harley Davidson, Remy Martin, Red Bull, Everlast, Canon, Manhattan Automobile Company, Aerospace High Performance Center, Nat Sherman Cigars and Astor & Black Custom Clothier helped make BOX NYC a one-of-a-kind classic sporting and social event.
