More Than Boxing

Be careful who's in your corner, but you can trust God to always be in your corner.

Vargas Boxing

Every practice opens the same way: together, in prayer, with a lesson that reaches past the ring. Coach Vargas trains fighters, but first he's raising good people. Champions in life.

The Heart · In Memory

This gym exists because of a boy who never stopped fighting.

His parents started Vargas Boxing in his memory. Today the Vargas family trains and mentors young boxers to become champions in life, just like Manny.
