    If you have decent amateur experience you must have a trainer. I'd talk to your trainer about going pro instead of forum trolls.

    You will probably make nothing starting out and may even be in temporary debt to your promoter.

      If you've fought as an amateur, how would you not have talked with your coach about this? Regarding money, you won't. Becoming a boxer for the money is the most deluded thing you can do unless you just competed at the Olympics.

        I don't want to be a pro boxer for only the money.I have a passion for it.

          Then I'll tell you the same thing I tell my younger clients in the studio; forget about the money right now and find a girlfriend with a good job and a lot of patience. Seriously.

            Sit down with your trainer and discuss it. Not random strangers on the internetz.
