  • MARK LEDUC BOXING SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM 

At West Side Boxing Club, everything we do is rooted in one belief: boxing can change lives. The Mark Leduc Boxing Scholarship Program stands as the clearest expression of that belief—built on the legacy of a man who lived it firsthand. 

From day one, our top priority was to create the Mark Leduc Boxing Scholarship Program. The program is designed to remove barriers for at-risk youth, giving them access to the same opportunity that once changed Mark's own life. Through this initiative, young people can train free of charge, provided they commit to attending at least two sessions per week. That commitment ensures they’re not just participating—but building consistency, discipline, and a stronger sense of self.

This program is more than financial support. It’s mentorship. It’s structure. It’s a second chance.

  • They say that boxing is the loneliest sport in the world -- but what does that mean? Certainly it has to do with the fact that you are in the ring alone when you're competing but it also refers to the amount of solo work required to become a skilled boxer.

Classes are important. Sparring is important. Coaching is important. But eventually every serious boxer learns the same lesson: class alone is not enough.

The fighters who truly improve are the ones who come in when nobody asked them to. They hit the bag after everyone leaves. They skip rope alone. They shadowbox in empty corners of the gym. They do roadwork when the weather is bad and nobody would blame them for staying home.

Those lonely hours matter because boxing is deeply personal. Your conditioning, your confidence, your toughness, and your discipline are built when there’s no coach watching and no teammates pushing you along.

Anybody can work hard when the room is loud and energy is high. Real fighters learn how to work when it’s quiet.

The work you do alone is what shows up when the pressure is on. 🥊

  • WHY IS IT CALLED 'BOXING'?

The word comes from the term “box,” meaning a blow or strike with the hand. Long before gloves, ropes, and championship belts, fighters were said to be “boxing” because they were trading punches — literally giving and receiving “boxes.”
