    Hi, hows it goin.

    Im an amateur boxer, 6ft tall and 175 pounds, yet im skinny as ****. I'm just wondering is this normal to be that weight yet be so skinny. I look at loads of guys who are much taller than me and absolutly ripped with muscle yet still weigh the same as me. I don't understand where i'm carrying the weight?

    You often see 6ft guys even fighting at lightweight, who are slim, im more around the light heavy mark.

    Different people have different builds mate, I'd have to see you to judge. If you're not carrying excess fat it could be perfectly normal. I'm a little under 5'9" and fight at 140, Mike Tyson is 1.5" taller and fought at heavy. Everyone's different.
