The best boxing gym in Austin, Texas!

The gym is an old school type of gym but it is great, only about 2 weeks in and I have gotten considerably stronger and better.
The gym also has a great atmosphere, there is no competition even though it is a mostly do it yourself type of experience. Richard himself is awesome and has plenty of awesome stories to tell.
Overall the gym is a 11/10

I was in Austin for a couple of weeks for work and Richard gave me a good price to train here while visiting. Great atmosphere, welcoming people, and overall just an awesome experience. I highly recommend this gym to those trying to get in shape and those who take boxing seriously. It was a true boxing gym that exceeded all my expectations and a great two weeks with these guys. I'll miss it.

Good old fashioned boxing gym. I looked around and decided to work out here due to their no nonsense old school feel, and it was definitely the BEST decision I have made for myself in a long time! I’ve lost ten pounds in the first month working out here on a keto diet and never thought I could get into shape this fast! Now I just need a good sparring partner so come sign up and look for me!!!

A great place to get in shape, and hang out with world champions, past, present, and future. A place to learn inner peace and strength. Lord's gym is an ever-present state of mind in the boxers and fitness enthusiasts who've been fortunate enough to be a member. From this humble gym, charter flights to Caesar's Palace have been booked, arenas sold out, and opponents ko'd in title fights. Richard, his son Tiger, provide world class training for some, and a place to do a few situps for an old guy like me.

My son trained at Richard Lord's for a few years, a while back. He turned out to be a
Great southpaw. I'm not bragging because
he's my son, but, honestly, he wouldn't have
the skills that he has today, if Richard Lord's
Gym didn't exist. If Richard happens to read
this, a million thanks. Unfortunately, we moved out of Austin. I really believe that Richard would've had another PRIZE FIGHTER.
Everyone there, were very profession, according to John. Thanks again, Frank Zapata, ( John's dad )
