    Sometimes starting late has been good for the body and the mind. Some have trained for over a decade and it can have a strain on the body.
    Then again, starting at such age it would be more difficult to reach the top( if it´s a goal) cos of the lack of experience.

    I'd have a few amateur fights first if I were you, and then ask this question again if the answer hasn't become clear to you.

    I am 25 and im 4-0 as an amatuer its never too late. My last two fights I beat the two time michigan gloden glove champ and the runner up in nationals at heavy weight he had 38 fights. Do not listen to anyone if you want it bad enough only you can stop you.
