For Those Of You That Box..

IP:

..I have a few questions.

Where/How did you get started? Cause like, I've done pretty good at wrestling.. I know how to fight.. I have determination and dedication to sports like this.. And so I just want to give it a shot, but I don't know where to begin.

Also, I'm 16 years old and weight about 145. For the weight class that I'd fall in to, would it already be to late for me to start doing this, or do you think I can still successfully win fights? Because.. I'm not going to go out if everybody I'm going to fight has 5 years more experience then I do. I just want to know if you guys know, or are somebody, who started a little late, and the success level that came with it.

I'll respond with more questions if I have any, but for now, that's all I got. Please, if you box, respond to this.. I really want to try this shit out.

werd son

i don't do boxing myself
but my brother does and I have been with him a few times

basically ya just gotta find a place that does it, go down a few times and see if ya enjoy it!!!
obvioulsy everyobdy has nerves about getting knocked out, my brother got KO'ed like 6 times before he actually won a bout......ya just gotta have that grit and determination to not give up and just keep coming back stronger......if ya can do that you will get a lot better and start whoopin that ass. my brother KO's like everyone he fights now.........and he was only 15 when he started.....and a scrawny ass fucka......now he's 22 and a big ass ma'fucka!!!

me myself i do kickboxing
been doing that shit for like 13 years!!!

im a boxer....

16 is fine to start as long as you train hard, you dont have weight categorys in amatuer, just in a close amount to your opponents.

I have been boxing for nearly 5 years and have had 5 fights won 4 and lost one to the british champ.

I tried boxing once. I won but it was 2 long and tiring. I'ma football player, and a basketball player, and on the track team. But all of those combined doesn't prepare you for the gruelin punishment of being a boxer. Wrestleing might tho. I recommend you watch all 5 rocky's and cinderella man. Maybe the Will Smith Ali movie. EZ

I looked in the phone book when I started, for boxing clubs. When I started I just wanted to scrap, but you're right experiance means ALOT. So after I got my ass kicked (I was like 15, 16 - same age as you) I spent the next year just training. Upped my physical, and mental game. I had 3 fights the next year and I won all three, but since then I just train to keep my shit quick - Martin Lawerence style lol.
