    I'll be heading down there Monday.
    Yea, if you aren't hungry to be a real fighter you won't stay. It is a quick way of separating the men from the boys.

    Once that is figured out then it is imparting knowledge.

      Once you are on silk sheets that desire is hard to keep~
      Have you seen what's happened to Detroit since Kronks creation. Detroit was tough in the 70's and 80's, it's a whole 'nother level today.

      I have great expectations of what these guys will put together.

        Man that's hype. I can't wait to see what Kronk 2.0 churns out.

          I hope they can resurrect the Kronk name and create new boxing legends. Good luck to them.

              True. The best boxing gyms are the basic and gritty ones, not the squeaky clean and shiny ones. I would rather go to a gym with worn in equipment and looks like it could use a bit of work rather than one with everything nice and top of the range.
