The Phoenix gym was at the back of bettabodies gym which was owned by Kerry Kayes , Kerry is good friends with billy graham so he had use of the gym FOC on the condition they helped promote Kerry’s brand CNP. After Billy retired kerry had a similar arrangement with Joe Gallagher but eventually it turned a bit sour and Joe was asked to vacate the gym . Bobby Rimmer transferred his camp to bettabodies and after a while kerry who had already sold cnp professional gave Bobby Rimmer the business of bettabodies . Since then Robert Rimmer (bobbys son ) has took over the business and the gym has recently been refurbished , from all accounts Robs doing really well , recent big win for his fighter Ryan Doyle

Yeah I saw Robert Jnr got a good win with Doyle , probably needs an experienced trainer with him though as Bobby said he isn’t really involved as such I think Bobby is starting up again in Blackpool.
Didn’t no Robert Jnr was using the old pheonix though
