should i stay novice in golden gloves or go open class???

[Evil_Meat]

yeah slow is good. but im also 22. thats the down fall.

depends on ur confidence man, if you really wanna take urself far then you have to think that in the future I KNOW im going to be a good pro fighter, and ur just back to being 22 dealing with weaker competetion on your way to getting recognition. You have to really want it though and believe in yourself.

yep. but another year in amateurs is not what i wanted ahaha. i need to take advantage and being 23 next year in the amateurs wont cut it. im currently wokin on gettin my sr-22 insurance takin care of so i can go to the gym downtown without me being worried about getting pulled over.

you have to know it

I'm about 98% sure that you need to have atleast 5 fights on your passbook

And wasn't that last fight you had your first one?

I think you have to go novice for now until you reach 5

Depends man, have you done golden gloves at all yet? Also, as far as a shot at the Olympics, while I don't really know how it all goes, as far as the 2008 Olympics go, it may be a little too late. But being canadian, I don't really know how it's done with you guys, I just know that up here, it takes a little more time. 22 isn't that old man, and from what I understand, you're quite good. I'm 19 (20 in august), and if I can be "quite good" by 22, I'll be satisfied. So honestly, if it were me, I'd hone my skills in the novice competition first, than do open next year. But, like with everything else in this sport, go with your instincts man.

Good Luck with it either way,
