Flash News: ‘Brawl at the Beach!’-- Hitz Boxers Putting on a Free Boxing Exhibition at Chicago’s North Avenue Crunch Gym Saturday, July 24th!
By Juan C. Ayllon
(Chicago, Illinois): From 11:00 AM until 3:00 PM, a slew of Bobby Hitz’ boxers will spar in an exciting free outdoors boxing exhibition open to the public at the popular North Avenue Beach. Located just north of the North Avenue Beach house along the running path just off the beach, the outdoors ‘Crunch Gym at North Avenue Beach’ facility will feature noted Hitz fighters like Angel Hernandez, Elizabeth Kerin, Chris Riley, Chris Thomas, Carl Davis, and Jermaine Marks. Noting that there would be a lot of bikinis, Angel Hernandez was said to have asked if he could bring along his ‘belts’ to impress the girls.
As there will be a volleyball tournament just to the north of Crunch Gym’s facilities, there will be literally thousands of people moving about North Avenue Beach. Publicist Trayce Zimmerman said that this would be another way to literally reach thousands of fresh faces that never see boxing in person. Zimmerman said that for most of the boxers, it’s basically “…a chance to take off their shirts and show off.”
Needless to say, parking will be a mess. If you’re coming out, ride a bike, take a cab or get dropped off and avoid the snarl up.
Come on out and join the party! Just remember: bring some shorts and sun screen!
