How hard is it to catch a fighter in their gym?

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

I mean, can like anyone swing by and check him out or say what's up? Do they let the public in? If so, how can you go about it? And I'm not talking about a big time gym or fighter either (ie Mayweather).

I suppose it depends on how often they frequent that gym and if it's the only gym they go to. You might be able to find someone like B-Hop if they're hanging around a Philly public gym though.

EDIT: (that was kinda obvious thing though..)

are you speaking of going in or is outside good enough?....lol

Lol no fool. I'm talking about going inside. To see them do some work and say what's up.

But like, would they let me in? Dont they sometimes when a fighter is in the gym close it to the public?

Good question TS, I too have wondered about this.

People catch me at my gym all the time.

It depends how famous they are. I'm sure you could see world champs who dont have big names working out at their gym like a regular dude. Some work out privately though in gyms that are really only used by pro fighters a certain trainer really focuses on. I'm sure some guys hit up their gym in between fights and just train light/maintain and thats probably the most common way to see them I'd think.

Almost impossible if its James toney. More likely to find him in the golden coral.

well in that regard it was a serious question because obviously you cant see them work but there are places where you can see a ton of top fighters going in & out and they will speak to you on the outside.

I did get to see Pascal spar in Vegas but that place was like Fort Knox. You werent getting in there without a hookup but they had cameras there too since it was so close to the fight so maybe it would be different on a normal day. Roy was there too. Pascal looked ready so I know he was upset that the fight got postponed
