As you know from the previous posts I have made I am 16 and 5'1 and 112lbs. I have made the decision to become fully dedicated with boxing. So far I have had three bouts with three other fighters my size. I have won all three but they have all been by decision. I did score a knockdown, but he beat the count and made it to the final bell.
My trainer wants me to fight a fighter that is 122 lbs and 5'4. He fully believes that I can beat him and says that his record is only 2 wins and 5 losses.
Is this normal for a trainer to put you up against a fighter like this? He would like me to fight him in the next two weeks, but thought I would ask here for advice first. I cannot put on any weight no matter how hard I try, because I'm naturally skinny and my father is naturally skinny as well around my size.
