Terri Moss: Next Chapter
by Bernie McCoy
October 6, 2017 |
(OCT 6) I grew up, in a long gone era, when boxing in New
York City competed for primacy in the hearts of sports fans with
baseball, college basketball and horse racing.. Madison Square
Garden, located on 8th Avenue between 49th and 50th Streets, was,
emphatically, the mecca of boxing, not only in the city, but
throughout the country and, probably, the world. But it was the
strong foundation of neighborhood clubs throughout the five boroughs
that fueled the popularity of the sport. St. Nicks Arena in
Manhattan, Eastern Parkway Arena in Brooklyn and Sunnyside Garden in
Queens made up the "big three". In addition to numerous clubs
throughout the city, active venues extended as far north as White
Plains where the Westchester County Center hosted frequent cards.
That, of course was then, this is now.
