    Has anyone on here ever been to any of the gyms in the UK to watch the boxers spar / meet any of them?

    I was thinking that with me living near Leeds it would be good to visit the Ingles Gym in Sheffield but i wasnt sure which gyms in the UK allow visitors etc

    If anyone has any info or help on this it would be appreciated.

    Thanks for that, i have noticed that none of the UK gyms really have web sites with this sort of info on!

    Thats great thanks. I just think it would be interesting to see some of my favourite UK boxers spar, people like Kell Brook, Matthew Hall etc and i didnt know how welcome you would be to visit the various gyms. Thanks for all the help!

    Certainly is, thats why I'm not sure if thats what your man's looking for. As far as Pro's go Anthony Small trains down there sometimes and there's a resident up and coming pro Jack Morris. Short of that you get the odd lad pop in, but yeah, mostly white collar.
