Israeli and Palestinian boxers train at the Maccabi Jerusalem Boxing Club

Transcribed from the clipping
Israeli and Palestinian boxers train at the Maccabi Jerusalem Boxing Club in Jerusalem. Thanks to a loyal cadre of Jewish and Arab fighters who flock regularly to his stuffy gym inside a converted underground bomb shelter, Gershon Luxemburg's boxing club has become a rare melting pot that brings the warring sides closer together, one punch at a time.
