Congratulations to Andre & Anthony Dirrell
winning their recent fights and BOTH remaining UNDEFEATED!


Andre Dirrell had a sensational amateur career boasting honors that include the
2001 U.S. National Amateur Champion at 125 pounds, the 2003 U.S. National Amateur Champion at 165 pounds and the 2004 Olympic Bronze Medalist at 165 pounds.  Ever since turning pro in 2005, Dirrell has boasted an undefeated record and continues to work his way up the ranks to prove he is a top contender.  In 2008 Dirrell impressed the boxing world with a fourth round TKO over Michael Paschall.  A few months later he completely overpowered Victor Oganov in his most exciting performance to date where he won by TKO in the sixth round.

The Gym
Long before it was popular to cross train in martial arts in the U.S. there existed a unique training facility known only to those in the loop who were dedicated to advancing their
practical knowledge of no-rules fight training.  Known only as, "The Gym", this seemingly low-key facility was the brainchild of Michael Bussey, and has been in constant re-invention since its inception in the 1970's.

Bussey is a veteran expert of the fighting arts and has a long an impressive resume spanning over three decades.  After first earning black belts in his youth, Michael soon went on to compete in some of the countries earliest full contact tournaments.  He ran his own martial arts academy while still in his teens before going on to a successful career in law enforcement.  Later, after becoming one of America's earliest instructors of authentic Ninjutsu, he was instrumental in the development of RBWI, a modern combat organization founded by his brother Robert.  RBWI became one of the largest, most respected combat organizations in the world with branches located from Los Angeles to Nassau.  Since the 1980's Michael has conducted numerous seminars and been coaching individuals in no-rules sparring.

  Today, along with two of his sons, Thomas and Chris Bussey, he continues his dedication toward the development of well rounded athletes at" The Gym".  This year-round, 20,000 square foot facility is located in Arlington, Texas, and the home to numerous specialized experts.  "The Gym" has venues and equipment for boxing, professional championship wrestling, women's self protection sessions, kick boxing, weight training - body building, and practical hand to hand combat.  Best of all, it is open to the public and membership is very reasonably priced.

The Gym rests on a 1-acre complex adjacent to Six Flags Mall and in close proximity to the new Dallas Cowboy's Stadium currently under construction.  The auditorium has been designed with four overhead viewing screens and houses 600 plus spectators for special events such as "XKO Xtreme Knock Out" mixed martial arts fights" and "Genocide" wrestling.  In 2006, an estimated 40,000 spectators found their way to the arena and that number is expected to increase this year.  The facility also houses a full television production facility used to film events for broadcast in the Dallas-Fort Worth market as well as worldwide on Smartvideo TV.   Also the host of the filming of the reality show "The Bussey Bunch" for TLC and Discovery Channel.
