Good idea to drop out of High school for a boxing career?

[SUBZER0ED]

All school is overrated. Many of the most successful and intelligent people in the world were not well schooled. School is excellent for people who like to be followers and have difficulty learning through experience. Education does not equate to intelligence. Many people don't see this, especially those that tout education as the be all, end all.

You're right, education does not equate to intelligence, it is a source of knowledge that simply living can't provide nearly as well.

Asking complete strangers this question on a boxing forum is your first mistake

I plan on dropping out of high school during my Sop****re year (10th) so i an focus my time on pure Boxing training for my amateur bouts.. i am currently 16 and i can go professional when i turn 18. So my plan is that i drop out of high school spend 2 years of my life training hard isolating myself from friends, social life etc. Seems kinda weird? but it will pay off later during my professional era that's if i stick to the plan and stay DEDICATED. Thank you for reading this post and please leave me some comments and your thoughts about my plan. Please no trolls. I want honest answers.

Current Amateur record 22-0.

You only see this in West, where guys feel that they need to dropout and dedicate themselves completely to boxing. It worked for Canelo, but I also don't know what all of his options were. In the Ukraine, you have guys that go very far in the amateurs yet still were able to have a college education. If I were you, I would not drop out but have two plans and try to make them as close to each other as possible. You could train for boxing while working on graduating and getting a degree in Sports Science or something to help you become a person trainer. Something like that. Choose fields close to each other, one that needs an education and the other, like boxing, that needs talent and dedication.

If you go the route you're going, you are ******** with yourself. Many times the unforeseeable happens that derails your goals. It could be a serious injury or something else. It's happened to way too many promising athletes in all sports to count the numbers.
