    Boxing not well in Connecticut

    My son is having a hard time finding boxing clubs in Connecticut

    most of the new gyms and Health clubs will not allow a Boxing

    Ring on the premises.



    I called and asked the managers at several different Health Clubs

    and fitness centers why they did not have a Boxing Ring and I got

    many different reason.



    The most common reason was insurance policy.The second was

    most clubs and center felt there was not enough interest in the

    sport.



    I live near a large city in Connecticut and was able to get my son

    into a Youth Boxing Club.Back in the 1960 we had Boxing Clubs in

    every part of town. I hope this is not happening all over the country.



    I wish I could do something to change the minds of these new fancy

    health fitness centers that are popping up all over the place.

    Anyone have any suggestions I will reply

    Thanks Jim

      lol, not only do people think boxing clubs are unacceptable....

      but most restaurant chains and sports bars have policies that do not allow boxing to even be shown on television cause its too violent.

      damons... applebees.. chilis wont allow it amongst others.

                  BPP, I had the same reaction. I was about to give Animal Squabbs a piece of my mind and then I actually clicked on the link.
