I train up at Fitzroy Lodge when I can, got A Levels at the moment so I’m away for a few months. Was just wondering if there are any guys from London who train up at the Lodge or elsewhere?
yeah im a londoner and i train at hollington abc in camberwell
Whats it Like under the Archers now, got any good boys down there at the moment
Im assuming u meant arches and therfore mean the lodge.
Well Anthony Small turned pro last year who’d been with us for ages. He’s 10-0 now and comes back frequently.
We also had a guy, Martin Welch reach the semis of the ABA’s at welter this year, he could of easily won, very good boxer.
Not sure when your last experience of the Lodge was so Ill throw these out there. Scott Harrison doesnt box with us anymore but won the ABA’s two years ago when he did. David Haye boxed his am career with us. I’m sure I could dig up more if I think.
How do you know the lodge? (assuming you do and I didnt waffle on for ages for no reason)
Im an old Lodge boy, very good memorys I have of the place
I’m going to London in October any good gyms and addresses please
BTW what’s the address of the lodge
Fitzroy Lodge ABC
ARCHWAY
180 LAMBETH ROAD
LONDON, SE1 7JY
Renowned as one of the best, if not the best in the country, definitely the most storied.
Tuesday and Thursday nights are pretty full with the regular keep fitters and boxers but thers always room for more.
Wednesday nights is juniors, during the day any time is quiet.
Saturday is one massive session for the Saturday club - Avoid lol
IS it a rule of thumb that boxing clubs do all the main stuff on a thursday and tuesday? if ever theres a show on up here its a thursday and our club is always packed on a tuesday and a thursday…
Must be an unwritten rule of boxing clubs… 
WEST HAM ABC
how many of you go to a good modern club? my club is behind a pub it has 2 rings 7 heavy bags and 1 floor to ceiling bag, its a pretty old place but its the closest to me
My gyms got loads of good stuff, we only have one small ring but there are like 20 bags… different weights and shapes. Most of them are heavy bags then we have a few double end bags, speed balls and something my coach made which looks like a mushroom…
Theres a video of my gym, a short film was filmed there about a kid getting bullied (or something… ;)) called ‘My Hero’ got a copy on my HDD but I’m not sure if I can post it for copyright reasons 
Where is Lambeth? I want to go to a gym in Edmonton,I heard it is good and I’m only going to enjoy myself.
one of the best? to be honest i never heard of it, i heard of Repton (alot of people i know train or trained there) and the Peacock gymnasium
Reptons head coach Tony Burns boxed for the Lodge in the sixties Good fighter Game try the Haringay ABC Chris Hall is in charge good coach
You wouldn’t have an adress or number for the Haringey one would you mate? CC for the info.
I’ve heard of the peacock gym,what’s the address
Maybe your just closer to Repton.
If you follow amateur boxing in London its impossible not to have heard of the Lodge. Although I’m biased towards the lodge, I’ve heard good things from people who train at Repton so that might be worth a shot if its easier for you to get too.
Game I dont give numbers out, but if you go down Tottanham high st its near White Hart Lane, or ring the ABA up they will give it to you
i dont actually go to repton i said i know people who train there, i train in west ham abc
anyone know much about the peacock gymnasium? like the cost etc
Anyone know of any more centrally? Maybe around Westminster/Chelsea /Earls Court /South Kensington area.
London probably
