Real deal gym. I've trained at gyms across the US and this place belongs with the best of them. I frequent the Muay Thai classes but have done boxing and BJJ as well. Every coach is incredibly respectful, helpful, and more than willing to answer questions. If they notice you're new they'll come over and help with the basics. Strong technique emphasis across the board; coaches prioritize technical sparring over just blasting each other. Everyone who trains here knows the deal and is communicative and receptive. A true team environment. Everyone takes care of their training partners; people are in there for different reasons, some have fights coming up, others come once a week for fitness. It's up to you to communicate what level of intensity you're comfortable with to your partner. Full of committed people who genuinely live the lifestyle and love the sport, with a solid group actively competing at both the amateur and professional level.

Is this the place comedian Ali Siddiq talks about in his latest comedy special titled Mondays? I'm watching it now, and he just mentioned the address. I assume it's in his hometown of Houston Texas.

Authentic gym, many members of all types to work with, all coaches are experienced, they are ex fighters or current fighters themselves. Most members are also really good even with little to no fights, just shows how good of teachers the coaches truly are. no matter your experience the members will work with you and help you throughout your journey as well. When it comes to sparring (boxing) the coaches do a good job on the match ups, they will find an appropriate teammate to practice your skills with, and even if you practice with someone much more experienced they really do work with you appropriately. Best thing about the gym is the large group of members, so many people to practice and work with.

I’ve been training at Main Street Boxing and Muay Thai for over 8 years, focusing on striking and MMA under Kru Bob Perez, and it has been an absolute game-changer for my skills and my life. Kru Bob leveled up my technique incredibly, pushing me to heights I never thought possible. Thanks to this gym and Kru Bob, I’ve had the honor of training alongside UFC fighters and veterans like Derrick Lewis, Kevin Holland, Rafael Alves, Mana Martinez, and many others—it’s inspiring to share the mats with such elite talent. Beyond the training, Kru Bob has shaped the direction of my life in profound ways. He gave me my first opportunities to not only compete but to coach as well. I dove into the amateur fighting scene for a while, and I’ve been coaching ever since, with even more focus on it recently. I owe my entire coaching journey to him—I’m forever grateful for his guidance and for this incredible gym. I also have to shout out Coach Aaron Navarro and Bobby Benton, who are some of the highest-level boxing coaches around. Their expertise is unmatched. This place is a gold mine for anyone serious about combat sports—whether you’re a beginner, hobbyist, or pro. Highly recommend! 5/5 stars.

Moved to the Houston area this past summer, been coming to Main Street ever since. Have thoroughly enjoyed my experience. I have been training muay thai, boxing and mma elsewhere across the country for some time, and can definitely say Main Street is one of my favorite places I have been, and came highly recommended. I drive a good bit to get to the gym (~50 minutes) its worth the drive. I mainly attend the afternoon muay thai due to my work schedule. Jacob Berry and Paul Garza run a great program. They push their students and are very knowledgeable. Training partners are very good. The facility is robust, I love that it doesnt have that corporate sterile feel that some other gyms have. The facility is great overall, makes me feel like im training in Mickeys gym from Rocky lol. Great place to train!!
