I have just returned from New Orleans where I had a great time with Joe Ancona and his fight team. Joe's facility is phenomenal! I really like the dorms, ring, kitchen, whirlpool/sauna, weights and everything. The gym is close to several restaurants, a shopping mall, and grocery store. It is an ideal place to come and train whether you are a local or you want to get away from your local distractions and focus yourself on your training.
I am really looking forward to being a part of a gym that actively promotes and supports the sport. There are fights in the club downstairs from the gym every week plus larger cards in New Orleans every other month. There are also many other promotions throughout the Southeast where the team competes.
I hope to continue what Joe has started in terms of building the gym and the fight team and continue to grow the sport in the Southeast and throughout the country.
