The Church Street Boxing Gym organizes the ever popular Friday Night Fights NYC, a series of amateur traditional and Muay Thai boxing held several times a year in the spacious Hall at St. Paul's Cathedral. Once a year, Friday Nights Fight NYC takes it outside, offering fans a free event - the Rumble On the River - held at Pier 84 on the Hudson River in Manhattan. This year Norman Einstein's sent photojournalist Stephanie Lim to document the Rumble.

(More information about the series, upcoming events, and tickets can be found at the Friday Night Fights NYC site.)
