 COMMEMORATING the 37th Anniversary of the
 International Boxing Hall of Fame in Canastota, New
 York

 WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body to honor those
enduring organizations which faithfully devote their resources and
purposeful energies to supporting those who love the sport of boxing and
contributing to the quality of life for the residents of the communities
they serve; and

 WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to
commemorate the 37th Anniversary of the International Boxing Hall of
Fame in Canastota, New York, to be celebrated with its newest class of
inductees to be honored during the Hall of Fame Induction Weekend to be
held June 11-14, 2026; and

 WHEREAS, The Class of 2026 International Boxing Hall of Fame
honorees, voted in by members of the Boxing Writers Association of
America and a panel of international boxing historians, are: Gennadiy
"GGG" Golovkin, Antonio Tarver and Nigel Benn in the Men's Modern
category; Naoko Fujioka and Jackie Nava in the Women's Modern category;
trainer/cut man Russ Anber, referee Frank Cappuccino (posthumous),
trainer/cut man Jimmy Glenn (posthumous) and physician Dr. Edwin "Flip"
Homansky in the Non-Participant category; journalist Kevin Iole and
broadcaster Alex Wallau (posthumous) in the Observer category; and Jimmy
Clabby (posthumous) in the Old Timer category; and

 WHEREAS, Canastota, New York is known as "Boxing's Hometown," and
for the 2026 Hall of Fame Induction Weekend a myriad of events will take
place at the village and nearby at Turning Stone Resort Casino in
Verona, New York; throughout the four-day celebration, events will
include ringside talks, fist casting, fight night, 5K race/fun run,
boxing autograph card show, banquet, parade, and induction ceremony; and

 WHEREAS, The International Boxing Hall of Fame opened to the public
in 1989 and is dedicated to preserving the legacy of the great sport of
boxing; it serves as a tribute to the world's finest boxers and
contributors to the sport, allowing boxing enthusiasts to appreciate and
celebrate the rich history and traditions of boxing; and

 WHEREAS, The multi-year partnership between Turning Stone Resort
Casino and the International Boxing Hall of Fame spotlights the entire
region, garnering attention and boosting tourism in Central New York;
the partnership includes a series of nationally-televised boxing events
at Turning Stone, culminating every year in June with an elaborate and
bigger-than-ever International Boxing Hall of Fame Weekend with several
exciting events in Madison County and Oneida County throughout the
four-day celebration; and

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body that when
associations of such noble aims and accomplishments are brought to our

attention, they should be celebrated and recognized by all the citizens
of this great Empire State; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
commemorate the 37th Anniversary of the International Boxing Hall of
Fame in Canastota, New York; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That copies of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to the International Boxing Hall of Fame in Canastota, New
