This program is the work of the Rev. Ray Martin, who has kept east-side youths out of trouble for 40 years by teaching them discipline and morality through boxing.
Martin's Progressive Amateur Boxing Association, run out of a Dowling Street gym, has produced many Golden Gloves champions and, in one fighter's words, has kept some fighters out of trouble. His after-school program at Cuney Homes started last fall.
