Tag Line & Synopsis
"When it comes to amateur boxing, you learn about life first and boxing second."
Amateur boxing coach and trainer, Lyle Booker, has a good understanding that young men (and women) need to be taught respect & discipline early on in life before peer pressure steers them in the opposite direction. Living by the golden rule - "One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself" - Lyle preaches to the kids that come to the gym that they need to learn to respect themselves before they step foot inside the ring. Out of the hundreds of kids he's trained over his lifetime he's had about four kids that just never bought in to his philosophies. One of his positive examples is Chris Cromartie, a 21 year old amateur boxer and manager at Wilmington Coastal Boxing. Chris has many motivations to make a successful career out of boxing, most importantly his son. However, if he never makes "big" he will still be a success to himself and Lyle because he obtained the attributes to be a good person through learning how to box.
