anyone trained at rooney's gym london?

Post by sugargayleonard »

I've heard some good things about Rooney's gym. Can anyone who has trained there report on the gym? What do you think of the training/ sparring?

Can you tell me if they have amatuer fighters or is it mainly white collar?

thanks

Not an affiliated amateur gym. Terry Edwards coaches there so you will get some good am advice!

I've been in there for sparring a couple of times - think it's mainly white collar with the odd pro training there as well. They have open sparring sessions on during the week - you pay £10 or something then jump in.
