Hey guys,
As I have yet to box and this question hasn't really come up, let me lay out my situation, and someone can hopefully set me straight. I'm 22, never boxed, and I weigh 135 lbs. If I read the USA Boxing Rule Book correctly, I can box open class, 8oz. gloves, at Lightweight 132 (assuming I can drop 3 pounds). Is this correct, or do I have my weight classes confused?
