When Ray Gonzalez opened a gym in Lathrop to provide CrossFit training and power lifting to people in the South County, he knew he wanted to appeal to serious athletes. But he didn’t at the time expect his gym would become a destination for boxers throughout the area to train underneath Felipe Martinez – a former professional boxer who until two years ago was training fighters in a makeshift gym at his Lathrop home. And business for Savage Elite Fitness has been good since Martinez, beloved by local boxing fans and respected in a sport he has given the majority of his life to, signed on to offer training sessions and classes.
