A boxing program in the Bronx is changing the lives of teenagers and young adults in the borough in an unexpected location in Fordham.
"The corner of your eyes, it blinks out. Everything is focused," said Xavier Torres.
It's taken years for Torres, 24, to find a vision this clear.
"Everything went full circle," he said.
His safe haven is a boxing gym inside St. Barnabas Hospital. The unassuming location is giving him a reset on life.
