When those kids do turn pro they will probably have over 100 bouts under their belts. You run into one of them in the pro ring and you are most likely going to get your ass handed to you hard.

      What is it with these people. They think that the pros are anything like the amatuers. They are not. I have people almost daily talking **** about turning pro and they have a handfull of fights. I tell them, once you go pro you can never go back. If you guys were to turn pro at 23, which is in no way to late, you could atleast get some experience in the amatuers. Alot of people think that the amatuers dont groom you for the pros, to them I tell them that they dont know ****. I would much rather turn pro at 23 with 50 or 60 fights behind me than turn pro at 19 with 15.

      If you guys do turn pro that early give me your phone numbers. Im sure that the meat wagon would likely be interested in getting in touch with you.

      Take your time and learn your craft. Like I said, once you go pro you cant go back. The amatuers are about learning the techniques and skills of the sport. The pros are about straight out damage. Think long and hard before you sign your first contract to fight. Its like night and day.

      Rockin'
      I have to agree with you man, I have boxed myself and seen many good amateurs, but being from Gleason's I've also seen a great deal of pro's. ANd let me tell you, professional fighter can do very, very bad things to u, considering a lot of these guys had about 60-80 am bouts at least. just literally a different level of perception, physical condition and philosophy. Not talking about experience which plays a huge role in boxing.

        Jaidon Cardington also trusted his instincts.

          still...if he thinks he's ready and he wants to then all the power to him. We don't need some dude on his high horse telling him what he can and can't do. If he wants to get his brains mashed in then all the power to him.......

              Dude I'm not bagging on you and not trying to start an e-war but something isn't right. You say you started boxing when you were 6 and you're 19 now. With only 14 fights something isnt right Thats like a fight a year. If you started when you were 6 you should have atleast 100-200 fights. And if your dad is a trainer at a gym he should have never let you be that inactive. Maybe you just trained on and off but something isnt right.


              But atleast you dont have Hoskins disease. Its were an ametuer boxer has one fight and thinks they're god. So you're 13 fights past that point so you may turn out all right
