    Rite, last season i boxed at 64kgs and had a pretty **** start (it was my first season), won 1 and lost 2. All season i was sitting at around 62kgs but never thot of moving down a weight.I was always fighting people around 4-6 inches taller than me and i really struggle against people with a much longer reach than mine.
    I've been running for a while and the lowest i've been is 60.7kgs after a run.
    If i eat very little the day before and on the day of the fight will I still have the energy to fight?
    Cheers.

    If you eat the right foods i.e complex carbs, sports drinks then you should have enough energy for the fight unless you are very drained from the weigh in which i would doubt.

    won 1 and lost 2 isnt a bad start for your first season, your only learning. :good
