New England's Finest Super Middleweights Clash in Quincy's 'Rumble at the Rink'

Quincy is gearing up for a thrilling evening of boxing as Granite Chin Promotions unveils the "Granite Chin Box Off" tournament. Scheduled for Saturday, May 11, at the Quincy Youth Arena, this one-of-a-kind event will spotlight a fierce competition among four exceptional super middleweight fighters from New England in the "Rumble at the Rink" professional boxing card.

The tournament format promises an intense showdown, with the fighters participating in three-round bouts in the early evening. Should any match end in a draw, a fourth sudden-death round will be employed to decide the victor. The winners of these initial contests will then progress to a climactic five-round main event, with a potential sixth round for sudden death to crown the tournament champion. This annual event has received official sanction from the Massachusetts Boxing Commission.

Further details on additional matches will be announced shortly, with tickets available for purchase online. The event begins at 6:00 p.m. ET, with the first bout scheduled for 7 p.m. ET. Don't miss this extraordinary display of boxing talent and tenacity at Quincy Youth Arena.
