Is 207 pounds a good goal weight for a 5'10" heavyweight ?

It all depends on your frame.What is your walking around weight ?Are you fit at your natural weight.How old are you can you make cruiser weight.

I'm 18 (still growing into my frame), I walk around at 160 and I am extremely skinny at my weight. (Heck when I used to play high school soccer I was 165 pounds 5'7" and still looked skinny and my frame has only grown since then).

If you're at 160 I recommend forgetting about heavyweight. Its not realistic. Get down to the lowest weight possibly for your best chance at success

1. I'm still growing into my frame.
2. I'm really not at fighting weight at 160, I'm skinny as hell, I look like I'm from Ethiopia, I need to put on more muscle mass.

Aesthetics aren't important in fighting. Reach and height are.

Look at someone like Deontay Wilder or Jamal James, both are very thin, have knockout power.

You'll put on muscle as you train boxing, just focus on that and eating healthy and you'll end up at your fighting weight eventually.

207 pounds is the weight of 5'10" quarterback Kyley Murray in the NFL combine, he looked quite lean and fit and I am very big boned so his build seemed achievable.

newsflash

kyley murray isn't a boxer

No sounds like you could be a fat midget at heavyweight

[Dempsey19]

Very few men who are 5'10" tall can weigh 207lbs without carrying excessive amounts of bodyfat.

Additionally, it would be extremely challenging for a boxer who WAS in perfect physical condition at that height and weight to compete in today's heavyweight division.

Mark Wahlberg is 5'8" and a lean 215 pounds, too bulky for a boxer yes, but I'm 2 inches taller and my goal is about 10 pounds less.

Mark Wahlberg is 5'8" and a lean 215 pounds.

I have no idea where these figures came from; but if you want to see how muscular a man must be to be a lean 215lbs at 5'8", Google "Mike Mentzer".

You should shoot for 175. There's some monsters at HW
