“When I first walked into EQBC, I knew it was gonna be my home. I never boxed a day in my life, but I felt the atmosphere, a throwback to the days of old. Gritty boxing where boxing is all and everything they do. They have all the equipment — some you may only see at EQBC — all in a roughly 600 square foot space of ‘doing work.’ The thing I truly love most about my club is that it’s in a house where training is exclusive and when you’re welcomed in, the focus is on one thing: making the smartest boxers around. It’s just the best small club in the world.” — Eric Morrissey (New York Daily News Golden Glove Quarter-Finalist)
