Star Boxing founder and president, Joe DeGuardia will be honored by Ring 10
with the Lifetime Dedication Award
at their Third Annual Extravaganza set for Sunday, SEPTEMBER 8 at the Marina Del Rey in Throgs Neck (Bronx, NY.)

Promoting world-class boxing events in the New York City area for over 20 years, DeGuardia has stayed true to his vision of providing first class entertainment for boxing fans and opportunities for fighters as they strive for their dreams of becoming world champions.

 

“This award means a great deal to me. To be honored by the boxing community for my dedication to the sport is humbling,” said DeGuardia. “We’ve always been committed to fostering a healthy environment for the fans and fighters.”

 

“Boxing has played a very important role throughout my entire life, both personally and professionally.”

 

Born and raised in the Bronx, the son of a professional boxer, DeGuardia started boxing in organized tournaments at the age of 9. He won numerous  titles including the highly regarded New York Golden Gloves in 1988 while simultaneously graduating Hofstra Law School at the top of his class.

 

Initially working in the Bronx District Attorney’s Office, DeGuardia went on to found The Law Offices of Joseph M. DeGuardia, a highly
successful law firm based in the Bronx that has been consistently lauded within the legal community.

Remaining active in the boxing community, DeGuardia revitalized theMorris Park Boxing Club, which was founded by his father, to a newer and improved location. Transforming it into one of the busiest boxing gyms in New York, DeGuardia used it to launch Star Boxing, one of the sport’s premier promotional companies.

 

Star Boxing is credited for leading the resurgence of boxing on Long Island with their outstanding “Rockin Fights” series at The Paramount in Huntington, New York. The tenth installment, expected to sell out as have the past nine, takes place on Saturday, SEPTEMBER 14.
