MN Boxing HOF Banquet - 2018

The Minnesota Boxing Hall of Fame had it's annual dinner ceremony earlier this month on Oct. 12th at Mystic Lake Casino.

Below you'll find the link to Minnesota Boxing Hall of Fame website.  Under the News/Info tab you can read about the class of 2018 that was just inducted.  The Events tab has photos from the dinner to enjoy.  Plus you can even buy DVD's of all the past annual dinner induction ceremonies in the Merchandise tab as well.  Now that's pretty awesome!

If you've never visited the Minnesota Boxing Hall of Fame's website please take a few minutes to check it out.  Give them a LIKE on Facebook as well.  Thanks

Welcome to the MNBOXINGFAN blogspot!


My name is Sean.  I'm a Minnesota native and a huge boxing fan.  The purpose of this blog is to share my love of the sport of boxing.  Whenever possible I'll be watching fights, writing articles, and sharing my two cents from a fans point of view.  I'll also be sharing links, photos, and any other cool stuff I run across.  Please don't be shy about messaging me to say hello or to share info about fights for the blog.  I'd love to eventually add interviews of local fighters, trainers, referees, gym owners, and other local Minnesota boxing fans as well.  

Thanks and I hope to see you at the fights!
