    your nose will change quite a bit so if you have good looks dont expect to have the same ones in ten years, my nose never flattened that much it usually bends in different places depending on how im hit, your starting at a good age keep it up and even if you have a few loses do not give up, thats the main thing, take it from me you learn ten times more in a loss than you ever do when you win, keep at it and you will find success, by the age of 22 you could have 30 to 40 fights on your record if you play your cards right

    Well I'm pretty good looking ;), haha. Gotta go to weigh ins tomorrow at 6:30 am. This is when they will make the bracket. I'm not too worried about my record in the amateurs, but I would like to start off on a good note.

    My nose used to be ok. It went from straight, to bent to the left side, then bent to the right side, to its current state. Which is a typical boxers nose, flat and wide. The nostrils are clear though, and I actually like the way a boxers nose looks so I don't really care.

    :good
    one of my nostrils is kidney shaped and the other looks like its not been punched at all.the posh name for my nasal state is a deviated septum.breathing is difficult sometimes:roll:
     
  6. It doesn't take long for nose to change shape. Mine used to be a shmick nose, now it bends to the left and has an angle near the top like an english person.

    Anyone else nose tingle where it's been broken?

    5:39 am right now. In an hour I'll be heading over to Austin to weigh in and get bracketed. Hopefully I don't have to cut anymore weight

    Thanks to all of you :) just got back from weigh ins, turns out our gym scale was 1 pound over the one at weigh-ins so I came up light woot!

    They are putting me up against a guy with 6 fights already.... I only have 0... so let's see how this turns out.
