Is It TOO Late For Me To Do Boxing? Never Had Prior Experience

I'm 21 years old and I never did Boxing before. However, I do have a little experience in Taekwondo. Anyway, is it too late for me to start? Also, would it just be better if I did shootboxing or MMA?

 

Seeing you are from Virginia, I suspect you may well have a glass jaw so I would not advise it.

How regularly do you take PEDs?

 

Hows your chin, son?

 

I don't take any drugs. Anyway, I plan to get back in shape because I'm a little flabby. I wanna drop to 180 pds I'm 238 now. So, yeah when I do that I wanna do a combat sport.

 

Unless you're already a great athlete at other sports, kinda like Sergio Martinez was at 21, then it's too late for you. Unless you're satisfied with being a club fighter

 

So basically you want to become a Cruiserweight who gives up 20lbs to his opponent? That's a recipe for another hilarious episode of shattered glass.

 

Never too late. They are always looking for willing combatants to go some rounds versus budding prospects, pad records, so even if you aren't very good you can always be a career bum. Good luck.

 

Too late for what?

 

In today's market, it's never too late.

Just get active and fight the winos on your block until you get a 12-0 record, and you can get in line to be Little g's next opponent. Or, if you in England you can be a star.

 

what makes you think you have what it takes to seriously compete in pro boxing? other than "a little taekwondo", what makes you think you can fight?

 

Do you now what the score is in 2015 between Ethe UK and the USA in world title fights?

 

Is that how Curtis Stevens and Willie Monroe got their shot? What did it feel like to watch them guys get so completely thrashed? Is that where the hate comes from?

 

A friend of mine didn't start until his mid-forties. He trained every night and won some fights as a "Masters level" golden gloves competitor. If you're looking to turn pro it would be harder, but not I'mpossible. Boxing is the one sport that welcomes less than top talent, if you're comfortable being the "opponent."

 

No. The first time he saw a picture of Gennady he decided he didn't like him due to the color of his skin.

 

If you go to the gym you don't have to fight the next day. It's an amazing workout. Try it and go from there
