    Hey guys im going onto 16 in 4 months but im quite a big guy for 15 at 6'4 and 200lb on a empty belly. With about 15% body and relatively strong and fit. But i was wondering how long it would take for me before i start sparring or even competeing (im from ontario) ive always been a solid fighter and have done a excessive amount of research and vixeo watching... what kinda fighter do you think id follow? Any tips or anything extra i shoukd know? I feel like im too tall it may be a disadvantage (i play other sports such as football, basketball, rugby, wrestling

    Train about 3 months than ask the coach to let you do a round than go to 2 rounds than keep progressing from there. Most amateurs usually only spar 3 to 6 rounds

      What weight class are you shooting for? At 15 you will only get bigger, so I assume heavyweight will be your home sooner than later.
