Maleek Jackson Boxing

This gym is a great place for supportive community members to get together. There is a variety of members from those who want a fun and unique workout to those who want to train like fighters and compete. Coach Fiz is a wonderful coach and mentor who customizes his classes to all levels and spends a great deal of time considering each fighters strengths and weaknesses to build up their skills and confidence with sincerity. If you are considering trying out a class at this gym- go for it! You might feel intimidated but will quickly realize how welcoming of a group is waiting for you.

I cannot say enough great things about this boxing gym. When I joined last year, I had zero boxing experience, but Maleek, Coach Fiz, and Coach Dan made the journey both approachable and exciting. They are not only incredibly knowledgeable but also patient and genuinely passionate about the sport. The energy in the gym is contagious—it pushes you to give your best every time you step in. Coach Fiz, in particular, goes above and beyond for every member, showing a level of dedication to boxing that is truly inspiring. I am proud to be part of this community.

I’ve trained combat sports for almost 20 years and Coach Fiz has been the best coach I’ve ever worked with. His knowledge of boxing and true love for the sport really shows in his coaching. If you’re looking for a place to really grow your skills this is the place.

I’ve been training at Maleek Jackson Boxing and Fitness for almost a year now, and I honestly can’t say enough good things about this place. The coaches here are truly knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely invested in your growth, no matter your skill level. Whether you’re brand new to boxing or have years of experience, they make you feel welcomed, comfortable, and supported from day one. Beyond the coaching, the community here is something special. Everyone pushes each other, respects one another, and wants to see each other improve. I’ve learned so much not just about boxing, but about discipline, confidence, and showing up for myself consistently. This gym feels like more than just a place to train, it feels like home. If you’re looking for a boxing gym with elite coaching, a positive environment, and a real sense of community, this is the spot. Highly recommend.

This is a great boxing gym! I stopped by for a drop-in self-training on Saturday (9/27). I was in Philadelphia as a volunteer judge for the Empire State Mock Trial High School National Competition that afternoon and Sunday morning. The facility is amazing and I saw one of the kids classes and a small adult group class. Incredible! The gym is a hybrid hardcore boxer gym AND public-friendly neighborhood training gym. I am a member of the Morris Park Boxing Club in the Bronx (Aaron Davis, Owner). I was able to get a great workout in. The staff is friendly and members are hard workers and great to train with.
