HUNTINGTON, NY (September 13, 2026) — With just four weeks to go until Rockin’ Fights 55 on October 10, at The Paramount in Huntington, Long Island, Joe DeGuardia’s Star Boxing is preparing for a special night of action and celebration honoring the American Dream and the generations of people who have come to the United States in pursuit of opportunity and built their own stories of success.
New York has long been a gateway to that dream. From generations of Irish and Italian immigrants who helped shape the city and the sport of boxing, to the communities pursuing that same promise today, the fight game has always reflected a uniquely American story, people from different backgrounds united by ambition, hard work and the belief that anything is possible.
At Rockin’ Fights 55, that spirit will be celebrated both inside and outside the ring, with an exciting night of professional boxing accompanied by special festivities throughout the evening.
The celebration will include a live performance by America’s Tenor Christopher Macchio, along with appearances by special guests and additional surprises planned for fight night.
“Boxing has always been a sport for dreamers,” said Star Boxing President and CEO Joe DeGuardia. “My own family’s story is rooted in the Italian-American experience, and generations of people have come to this country believing that if they work hard and keep fighting, they can build something better. That spirit is at the heart of boxing, and it’s what we want to celebrate at Rockin’ Fights 55.”
With fight night now just four weeks away, additional announcements surrounding Rockin’ Fights 55, including special guests and event festivities, will be revealed in the weeks ahead.
