I met Hammer Boxing owner George Garcia through another boxer friend who trained me. George, his wife Lydia, and son George Jr. are great people. I only wish their gym was closer to me! This video served to promote the gym to professional fighters and Olympic hopefuls, in doing so, pro boxers Alyssa DeFazio and Paul “Ziggy” Romero were featured. You can see I ended up working with Ziggy a few times. I didn’t get a chance to work with Alyssa again, but I’ve seen her a couple of times since we filmed this clip. By the way, unless you’re in top fighting form, don’t spar with her. She’s an Olympic hopeful and definitely the real deal. Even if you are in fighting form, you might steer clear of her.

Hammer Boxing Gym is located at 17233 N Holmes Blvd, Phoenix, AZ 85053. Visit the Hammer Boxing Facebook page.
