17 years old

Nice avatar, Lil Dice is the man and thats my favorite movie. 17 is not to late. Its deffinately not the perfect age like someone people said. You will start out against much tougher opposition because once you are 17 you fight people of any age. It could be you vs a 35 year old. If you were under 17 you fight in your age group. Most people over 17 are better then the younger cats too. It will be a lot tougher but its not too late.

It the perfect age.

I hope not I plan to start soon. I turn 17 in June.

ok thats good to know because i heard some peoples started at 8 years old

17 is a good age to start boxing. Why would you think thats too old? If you have a dream, I say go for it.

not even close. even if you in your 20s its not to late. You can become good enought to turn pro in a few years if you work hard enough at it. But before you turn pro, you gotta go amatuer to get the experience. and stuff. so that u could actually compete in the pros. Ive heard of people that started in their mid 30's, and only a few years later they were on ESPN. Like one story, was a guy shoppin in a mall in Europe. He was about 33 years old. ANd he sees winky wright in the mall. So he goes up to him, and after a while Wright invites the guy back to his gym to train, two years later they tell this story on ESPN as the guy fights on the undercard.

start ametur boxing before u even think of going pro.... but mhe it is a bit old but not impossible
