Small for her age, when Haley Roberts started high school she struggled

with self-esteem issues until she found the gym.  

“I was self-conscious about how small I was and everything. I felt different from everyone else because everyone had a sport they were good in but I was never good at sports. Then when I found boxing I realized I had more strength and power than I thought, and I put it to good use,” she says. “I enjoy coming. I just enjoy the sport. It helps my confidence, it helps me feel better about myself all around.”  She likes the communal approach used at the gym. “I enjoy the different people who train me. Certain days we’ll work on certain things, like our footwork or straight punches. We just work on different things as a group. It’s really a team environment.”


“When Terence is in town to train everyone comes in and wants to train with him. It’s really cool seeing the Crawford entourage coming in.

The boys, were trained by their father at home before they tried out some gyms. After meeting Bud they fell in with him and his B&B Boxing Academy and they have not looked anywhere else since. Training there, Alan has learned the value of putting his all into the sport.

“It’s like really hard work – hitting the pads, hitting the bag, doing push-ups, doing jumping jacks, it’s just a lot of hard work. It pays off in fights, you know,” says Alan, who was among the first fighters to compete for B&B.
