Nope I started when I was like 19..I am currently 8-0 in the amateur ranks with another fight coming up in 2 weeks....It is never to late to start as long as you are successfully prepared. -
Don't ever let anyone tell you it's too late, of course you may have to work extra hearder than someone who started at say 11 years old, but it doesn't matter. Boxing is a mental game, my friend.Comment

Correct it is 10% physical and 90% mental....But sometimes being mentally prepared is harder than physical...Anybody can get up and run.Comment

I started a couple months ago (I'm 16) and I'm already sparring really good amateurs. If you can pick things up easily and are a good athlete you will do very well!Comment

I started when I was 16 and have had 4 fights. You have to try your best to get as many fights as you can though. I know for me it has been sparse trying to get fights, but if you are in the gym and sparring whenever you can it's not that bad...you can get experience that way.Comment

I actually started when I was 10 through 11 then quit because I felt weird shadow boxing. Then got back into it harder about 10 years ago when I was 18 then started studying Kempo Karate to heighten my parrying techniques.Comment

I started kickboxing when I was 13, got my hip broken in sparring, so I turned to boxing, I played around with it for a few years, but got serious about it about 4 years ago when I got divorced. Hating women sure is fun
