I was really serious as an amateur and seriously considered pursuing it as a pro. Circumstances can have a big impact on which path you take. I have no regrets though even though I still have that boxing passion. Still spar occasionally and keep myself sharp out of habit.
I competed from bantamweight all the way to welterweight. Not very tall myself so I had a different build as I was very hefty compared to most.
My style was meant to go against bigger dudes that I had the speed advantage over as I moved up.
I struggled more in the lower weights where our speed was comparable. At those weight classes though I had more of a high volume bullying style.
As a pro I would have liked to start out somewhere around 130 and move up to no more than 140.

I consider becoming an opponent from time to time. If you go into it you got one right here just hit me up.
