Is that enough time to get some good fighting/training experience before turning pro?

i'd say yes but i'd say you need to have around 30 fights and be good because theres not point turning pro if you aint got the skills as it's hard to make money.

Yeah, i recon you could have about 50 fights in 3 years, then depending on the record you have you could turn pro.

Whats your record now? got any training or fight videos?

s'not about how long, its about what you do with the time. a kid whos been an amatuer for a year, enters the ny golden gloves and wins it is in a much better position to turn pro than a 3 year amatuer whos done nothing important/ has lost a lot of fights. its a strange question

If you aren't fighting 25 times a year, don't bother turning pro.

im 14 and ive just started to fight reguarly (0-1 and one exhibition fight) and i would like to turn pro around 20-22 years old ive been told i have talent but for my two fights (one real one exhibition) ive been matched with heavier older and more experienced guys so i know once i get an opponent my size experience or age ill start winning alot of fights but i was just wondering, down here in canberra ACT, you get guys who've been fighting amateur for say 3 or 4 years and they've only had 8 or nine fights?! i dont get this cos from ive seen in other cities and countries people whove been fighting for 4 years have racked up like 50 fights! is that normal to be fighting so sparingly in the ams?
