    Guys like Julio Cesar Chavez, Roberto Duran, Salvador Sanchez, and MAB all started their professional careers around their teenage years. How did boxers that started their boxing careers at a young age get their education? Were those guys able to go to school while still fighting professionally?

    Duran dropped out in 5th/6th grade for punching a teacher.
