Most Boxing gyms I've been to on the East Coast have MMA traning now. From a business standpoint, it makes sense. Why push away clients because you don't like MMA, especially when those guys are actually wanting to learn Boxing too.

from a business standpoint, that definitely makes sense. all the south florida boxing gyms ive been too have MMA training, a cage, etc.

i'm just not very fond of MMA and would rather have the 2 segregated at all times.

I'll keep an eye on this gym.
