One of my hobbies here in NYC has been covering boxing matches for a website. I am a big fan of the sport (have 1,000's of fights on tape) and was wondering if anyone knew anything about the boxing scene in D.R. I know of a few of the fighters who hail from D.R. but wanted to know if there were ever big matches held there, where, and if anyone knows of a boxing gym in the Santiago area.

Thanks,
Ian

Of course

Bienvenido Solano is president of the Dominican Boxing Federation and there are gyms is almost any city.
Snatiago is supposed to be a hotbed for boxing and they hold fight nights quite frequently. However, I do not keep up with the sport.

But, yes, there is boxing in Santiago.
