It’s not easy to attend a good old-fashioned fistfight anymore. The heyday of boxing seems to have passed, replaced with various Cobra Kai graduates kicking, pulling, and wrestling each other into submission. About the only time you see two guys standing toe-to-toe throwing punches, they’re in a poorly lit bar, drunk on too much whiskey, and the cops are on the scene before the fight gets into full gear.
Trolling bars hoping for a fight isn’t a great idea, and instigating one is even sillier. Thankfully there are still genuine practitioners of the sweet science of boxing. Normandy Gym is the place in South Florida to see the best amateur boxers duke it out for a chance to advance to the Olympic trials. Tickets to the appropriately named Back Alley Turf Wars #2 start at $10.
