Boxing From Sunnyside Gardens was a boxing program aired live from Sunnyside Gardens in Queens, New York on the DuMont Television Network beginning in September 1949 as part of DuMont's sports programming. Most of DuMont's boxing programs at this time were hosted by Dennis James. The 60-minute program aired Fridays at 10pm ET. Sunnyside Gardens began hosting boxing in 1945, and was demolished in 1977.

The UCLA Film and Television Archive has several episodes labeled as Boxing With Dennis James but it unclear if this series is among those held by UCLA.[1]
