Great Venues To Practice Boxing In Mexico City

While lucha libre is arguably far more popular in Mexico than boxing is, the country also has a known track record of producing excellent boxers that have performed on the world’s stage, in both amateur and professional events. One of the biggest and best known Mexican boxers would have to be Julio César Chávez, although female boxers are edging more and more into the spotlight. But where exactly can you go to try your hand at boxing in Mexico City? Here are the great locations you should be checking out.
