Neighborhood pride takes center stage when undefeated Raymond “The Scientist” Cuadrado (8-0, 3 KOs) faces Efstathios “The Greek God” Antonas (13-3-2, 4 KOs) in one of the featured fights of Joe DeGuardia’s Star Boxing’s Rockin’ Fights 55 on Saturday, October 10, at The Paramount in Huntington.
An old-school New York neighborhood battle, the matchup pits Ridgewood’s Cuadrado against Antonas and his passionate following in Astoria’s Greek community.
Cuadrado, an active FDNY firefighter, balances his service to New York City with his pursuit of success inside the ring. He enters with an unbeaten record and a growing fan base of first responders and neighborhood supporters eager to see him keep that streak intact.
Standing across from him will be Antonas, a national champion in Greece whose European title experience and physical, grinding style present a demanding challenge. With Astoria’s Greek boxing community behind him, “The Greek God” will look to hand Cuadrado his first professional defeat.
The neighborhood rivalry promises to carry into the crowd, with Ridgewood faithful and first responders on one side and Antonas’ Greek supporters on the other. Expect a spirited atmosphere as these two fighters bring Queens pride to Long Island.
