[!! Mr. Soprano]

i mean im a natural 147 welterweight im 6 feet tall. and alot of ppl tell me Its better if i fight at 147 because im a big welterweight and I have good punching power and will have a big advantage over alot of welters. but i dunno right now Im walkin around at like 150-152lb's. should I just make my debut at 154lb's. or even 160???? any advice????

I'll be honest... I haven't even read your post or any of the responses.. yet just want to comment...

I logged in to your thread and wanted to welcome you to the BoxingScene with a beautiful RED Karma.. just for a ****ed up name like that! However I wasnt surprised that you're already Red and you have a Star rating as one.

Boxing does not need any white hopes and neither does this site.

I recommend you start over and with a different name this time

stay at your natural weight

I walked around at 160+ naturally but with running and dieting. I fought at 139 and never got bigger than 145. I am only 5'5 but with huge legs and a muscular body. 170 is my best weight with the size of my legs. At 139 I was sickeningly skinny and I had my bodyfat dangerously low. It was an advantage though. Go for 147 or lower even.

You are gonna have your pro debut but you don't know what weight you are fighting at?

Yeah ok.

of course I know what weight Im fighting at. I told u 147, but my question was after my pro debut should I stay at 147 or move up. that was my question

If you are a natural welter and you walk around at that weight, fight at 140 or 135. You can cut that weight trust me. You will have such a reach and power advantage it will be sick. Thats if you can box and take a shot. I am 5'11"(6 when I wake up because the spine relaxes while you sleep), and I used to fight at 130 when I was 21. I could make that with some weightcutting no prob. Problem was I had almost zero leg muscle and got knocked down alot
