Any of you guys training considering going pro?

...in other words....my record stinks.

 

lol

well records arent totally irrelevant as it can often show how far you got in tournaments etc. but i know that most womens tournaments involve only 2 or 3 fights.one girl at my gym is having to go over to sweden for a decent competition.

pro boxing at the lower levels is really a nasty thing that i would only get involved in if i had little other options,little money,little support and you get people on the likes of ESB calling you a bum

 

Yes

 

I have, but I'd like to do it smart. Continue as an amateur, do my best there, see if I can't at least make the Olympic Trials in 2011 or the Olympics in 2012; and make sure I'm guaranteed a fair bit of change with a good promotional team before turning pro; turn pro, make the money, and get the **** out before getting my brains beat in.

 

Personally i wouldnt turn pro becasue the sport is corrupt and also one lose and its pretty much all over and unless your the best outh there ur just gonna b a punch bag.i hav spoke to alot of guys who were pro and had record lik 2 and 2 and hav sed its the worst decision they hav ever made stay am and hav fun and get a job with decent money.a pro boxer is a hard life and about 0.0001% make decent enough money to not hav to work again

 

Hi there RZA

 

some of my m8s are pro and the early fights unless u had a good am record are so so one sided
