Originally posted by CurlyAt age 34, and I know cause I fight and I'm in my mid 30s, you should have an EKG, MRI, CAT, complete physical, etc done before you fight. Unfortunately, most amateur promoters don't even check your ID much less ask for a physical. It's up to the fighter to make sure you're in good health. Even with all of that, some things you don't know about until it's too late.Comment
