    good boxing gyms in chicago?

    There's Oakley fight club that's by Western and Grand. There's a couple boxing gyms by the 35th Red line but I can't remember where exactly. I go to Oakley though and it's pretty solid and affordable. www.oakleyfightclub.com

    Road to the Golden Gloves

    Whenever I can find one. I know there's an annual one that goes on in the fall/winter. There's also white collar boxing matches that the owner of my gym host with his promotion company every month. It depends but I'll be trying to get one around early summer if I can.

    Road to the Golden Gloves

    Sorry guys for no update in the last month. Big family issues came up and after those finally got settled I got the flu. But as you can guess I miss the Golden Gloves this year, I'm disappointed but I'm going to fight in them next year with a couple amatuer fights beforehand. Anyways, that's...

    Hopkins wants shot at Adamek's cruiserweight title

    Yes, I mean the Irish were hugged and cuddled by the British in Ireland. And arriving in America they weren't treated like sub standard laboring scum, right? A majority of cultures had their own shit to go through. Except the British, but they don't have souls so they don't really count...

    Road to the Golden Gloves

    I hope so too. I've seen the guy train before and the bag swings way too high and way too wild for something like that not to eventually happen. I like my gym and the people there are good people but they break shit constantly. Someone broke the double end bag a week ago and another one busted a...

    Road to the Golden Gloves

    I'm back! Thursday: I spar with one of my co workers named Vilatis. He's about a little under 6'0, 160 lbs, and good reflexes. He's tough to spar because he makes not getting hit his number one priority in the ring. So he's more of a counter puncher. So I usually have to throw feints, try...
