Johnny Tocco's old gym must be the most famous. Its situated, (as I am sure nearly all the LV gym are) in the seedy down town district

Here is the site:

If I was going I would probably look to train at the brand new Xtreme Couture facility, an MMA gym which is truly state of the art. You could do boxing there and get a session in for definite.

Top Rank is very lively, big and 2 sparring rings that are generally busy. It is just behind the strip.

Mayweather has his own gym as well there, but not sure of the location

I was going to suggest Johnny Tocco's i've been there and sent people to train there and they've had a good time.

As far as i know the Top Rank gym is not open to anyone to just go along and train unless you know one of the trainers there you might be out of luck. It seems that it mostly only used when Top Rank fighters have a Vegas fight coming up.

If you're interested in training with Wayne McCullough at his personal gym drop me a pm. Depending on his schedule running up to his December fight he might be up for doing a week's training with you.

By the way boxing gear is surprisingly hard to get hold of in Vegas, everyone i asked seems to order it onlne.

I know someone who trains with McCulloch, I could ask him if you'd be able to go to Wayne's gym.
