What would you say it is and the address? are there any of the amatures that fought in the world championship from Sydney and what gym do they train at? thanks in advance
NSW has been sorta sucking at the ams in the last couple of years...Luke Boyd fights out of Sydney. Dont remember where..I think Penrith, which is in the wild wild west of Sydney.
Thanks, its a mission from where ill be staying.... where do you think i should train when im there... im staying near sydney opera house. but when checking for boxing gyms they all seem more like fitness training than anything else.
Power, I have a gym at Kingsgrove, it's about 150m from the train station or 100m from the M5 turn off if driving? Toe to Toe Boxing Club 23/192a Kingsgrove Rd. Kingsgrove ph: 0403821670 I do classes weekdays Mon-Fri at 4pm Mon/Wed/Fri at 6pm Sat 8.30am All are welcome, I have from begginers throgh to pros like Sakio Bika, Ryan Waters, Kurt Bahram, Ben McCulloch & a few others. Call in some time if you like? Birchy
Power, Birchy is too humble. If it's who I think it is, Dave Birchell, he is a well decorated amateur & was pursuing a successful Pro career until it was medically interrupted . He certainly knows his stuff.
Thanks really appreciate it, ill definitly come in. shall i ask for birchy when i ring & whats the usual gym fees! and as ranser said is there much sparring? thanks
No worries mate it on the corner of Cathedral & Riley Streets. 51 Cathedral Street (Cnr Riley St) Woolloomooloo NSW 2011
Open Mon thru Fri i think they are also opening on a Saturday now until midday or around that time. Usual operating time Mon-Fri is i think 8 or 8:30 in the morning until 8pm. I did train there to the point where i was in every day. Now i go back from time to time, thinking of getting back into it.
open all day then which is good. Thanks alot, i wanna get as much different styles of sparring on my travels as possible. :good
Rodin, Thanks for the rap mate, I'm lucky I've been around good trainers & good fighters most of my life so some knowledge has crept in but still learning all the time. Ranser, there is alwys sparring available, let me know when you want to come down & who you need the sparring for & we can work something out. Power, give me a call, ask for Birchy, David, whatever you like, I've been called worse so I look forward to hearing from you. Birchy
Yeah i will do thanks. i arrive on the 30th of Sept so will be shortly after that when i get a sim card sorted etc. Looking forward to it now cant wait, hopefully youll be able to pass some of that knowledge on :good!
