    I've been wanting to take up boxing for quite a while now and am finally in the position where I have enough time and some extra cash to do so.

    I've been looking for a boxing gym in Orlando, Florida but everything I find on the internet seems to be much more geared towards fitness rather than training someone to compete.

    Do any of you guys have any recommendations on what I should be looking for?

    Thanks

    look for a gym that has some current amateur or proffesional fighters who are good. Look at there technique, make sure they are not just brawlers.
