    No you would not be too old to compete... I think the limit is 35 or somewhere around there...

        i don't think there's a limit on how old you are.

        there is a limit on how young you are though.

                  Teofilo Stevenson fought in 3 Olympics.You can probably compete until you're 105 if you keep on beating the other participants.
