How long was it until you had your first amature fight?

[colly10]

the dude he does let me spar with he tells me to go easy on lol, and the other dude has been boxing for 2 years and has a dozen amature fights under his belt.. He says i hit hard as hell and have great head movement.. I dont think I've ever been hit hard in the head while sparring

Most people will tell ye to go easy because nobody likes to spar someone who's too heavy handed, sparring is about practicing your skills. Just cause a guy is asking you to take it easy doesn't mean he's no capable of dropping you

exactly, u box. hit and not get hit. as far as the hitting goes theres no reason to go of on your sparring partner, if u wanna throw bombs do it on the heavybag and in the fight. u cant go too easy on eachother ofcourse, but still. its really annoying trying to teach a new guy how to box when he thinks hes mike tyson and tries to knock u out in sparring. comes running in leaving himself wide open not doing anything the trainer told him too, i usually put em down with a bodyshot and eighter they start boxing and not brawling or they dont wanna spar me no more. eighter way we arent waisting both of our time anymore.

Just under 4 months. Everyone considered this very early but I didn't care. I was sparring just like 3 weeks after I started training. I was doing well and after a few months my trainer finally asked me if I wanted to fight and I said of course. Won the fight.

This was back when I was 14 years old. Im 19 now and I've only fought once this year back in January!! My gym sucks and hasn't been getting us any fights. I have no fights scheduled either.

that sucks, im looking to fight for the first time in a long time myself after the summer. in addition i moved up in weight, just needed to be done. but anyways, going a long time without fighting sucks. i need to punch ppl with bad intention every once in a while, just built like that.

Just because you're ready for your first fight doesn't mean you're ready to WIN your first fight. Just depends on what you want.

My coach told me I was ready after about two months. But I had horrible defense and only knew how to throw power punches. Basically a brawler. So I waited and kept training hard. After about 4.5 months I thought I was ready to go. We had a couple fights fall apart last minute, so it was 5.5 months before I actually fought. And I slaughtered the guy in minute and he didn't hit me clean once.

So sure I could have gone in there after two months and fought. Maybe I'd win, maybe not. But I'm happy with the way things went.

I started boxing like last week and my trainer said I should fight in september or october. I've been doing really good better then alot of people he said on their first week. What do you guys think wait longer or take the chance and fight for the experience

Make sure you dont sleep with your own family members before the fight, it weakens the legs :wt:
