Gleason’s boxing gym opened in the Bronx (currently in DUMBO) back when white people who spoke with accents lived in the neighborhood. Jake LaMotta trained there, and it was the home away from home for the likes of Ali, Duran, Julio Cesar Chavez and Karl J's folks. No spas, no juice bars, no Blackberrys – it’s old school – just spit buckets, stink, respect, and now, me... feeling like San Te after rolling out of a basket of cabbages.
