Golden Gloves - Top-Central New England Semi-Finals
2025-01-30 19:30 - 22:00 | Lowell Memorial Auditorium, Lowell Memorial Auditorium, 50 E Merrimack St, Lowell, MA, 01852, United States
Lowell Sun Charities is proud to present the 78th Annual Golden Gloves at Lowell Memorial Auditorium, Thursdays from January 9 – March 6. Don’t miss a moment of one of the longest-standing New England sports traditions, as the best amateur boxers from the area battle it out across the weeks to see who will be crowned champion. Thursday Night is Fight Night at the Lowell Memorial Auditorium!
Every year in the Golden Gloves they’re a new flock of boxers trying to work their way up from the bottom in hopes of advancing their way to top of the competition. The Gloves has been a tradition in New England since 1947 and sells out the Lowell Memorial Auditorium every year. “It’s only there to give kids a way out of a lifestyle and to promote the sport of boxing along with good health, good training, exercise and confidence.”
When you win the Golden Gloves, you don’t get paid, you get the respect of your community; that’s very important to a young kid, as it gives them confidence to build their life upon.
Lowell, Massachusetts has a great tradition of boxing dating back 74 years ago. When you go to a Golden Gloves show in Lowell, you know that it is unlike other boxing shows or any other sporting event in general. There is electricity in the air, fans get a certain charge when they watch these fighters give every ounce of themselves for something that can’t be seen or touched.
This yearly event to the combatants is that, it’s not about prizes; it’s about pride. Many of the fighters who range in age from 18-40, are not even on a path to the pros or even the Olympics — they are simply there to say they fought in the Golden Gloves.
