More than 500 people attended this past Saturday night’s 8th annual Connecticut Boxing Hall of Fame (CBHOF) Gala Induction Dinner in the Uncas Ballroom at Mohegan Sun.

Freddie Roach was amongst those honored, although he could not attend the event due to his obligations in training camp with Manny Pacquiao.
