For 35 years, John's Boxing Gym has been a haven for city youth. Training many Golden Glove Winners, Professional Boxers as well as fitness enthusiasts!
Previously on Westchester Ave, and known as Jerome Boxing Club; it was bought in 2004 by Albanian born former boxer, Gjin Gjini. Renamed to John's Boxing Gym after his son.
The gym is home to both male and female amateur boxers who have some prestigious titles under their belts but has also been a training facility for many fighters who have gone pro such as Joshua "The Hitter" Clottey and Joseph "King Kong" Agbeko.
John's Boxing Gym is also home to many trainers of a vast variety of experience. Training male and female, young and old, our trainers will cater to your every needs, either training for amateur or professional boxing careers or just get you into shape.
This weathered scruffy gym doesn't have shiny new equipment, with three aging rings, heavy bags which show evidence of overuse and continuous steady thumping from the speed bags and whirring of the jump ropes creates a welcoming friendly and family environment for all who enter this second floor gym.

- Law and Order: Organized Crime (Season 2: Episodes 1-8)
- Law and Order: SVU (Season 2: Episode 13)
- Godfather of Harlem (Season 1: Episode 4)
