NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y. (WGRZ) -- An underground boxing operation in
the City of Niagara Falls is being promoted, but there's a
problem, it's illegal.  Several weeks ago, we learned that
female boxing was being held at a club.  This led to action by
the state to stop the Amnesia Nightclub, which is located at
1414 Main Street from hosting the events.  The building was the
site for the matches for about a month, until just last week
when the state sent the club a letter saying its operation was
illegal. This forced the club to stop holding fights there. But,
promoters for the events are still advertising online that the
boxing is legitimate.  City Mayor Paul Dyster said, "if they're
trying to drawn a crowd to a future event using the internet,
they'll likely get caught."  The fighting is raw, with untrained
fighters in a ring and dozens of people surrounding it. Club
Amnesia hosted the fighting
