Los Angeles, California:- WBC Legends of Boxing in the spirit of the coming Holidays will put together an event at the famed Rudy’s Grill along Pomona Boulevard in this City to honor several boxing personalities.

The event which will serve as this year’s WBC Toy Drive is sponsored by several big names doing business for and with sweet science. They include among others, All Star Boxing, Salazar Y3 Campeones, Standing 8 Management, Alhambra Youth Boxing Club, Burbank Body Shop, Wildcard Gym and the WBC Legends of Boxing.

Boxing fans and friends of boxing are welcomed to the event which starts at 2:00PM on Sunday, December 20th and rub elbows with many boxing personalities expected to attend.

Entrance to the event is $20.00 plus a Toy for distribution to the under privileged children in the greater LA area.

During the event, WBC Legends of Boxing will make a rare presentation to the special guest of honor, Freddie Roach. A commemorative custom made belt to recognize his past and present achievements in boxing will be presented to the two-time Trainer of the Year awardee.

The festive event will have Danny Valdivia and Chicanito Hernandez as co-emcees, two well-known personalities in the Latino community.

Live entertainment will be provided by the Mariachi Juvenil Jugueros de Jalisco and the Dueto Alanniz.
