    Super Middle was my ideal fighting weight.

    If your asking what weight I'd choose as a Pro I'd choose Welter

    IF i trained for boxing i would probably get down to 154 or 147. When i was in my late teens i fought at 139 and 147.

    I weigh like 205 right now.

    Light heavy or super middle. But I would be alot more effective at middle being I'm only 6' tall and that division is kinda weak right now

    I would want to fight at CW-HW. But I could very easily fight at SMW-LHW. I'd rather build myself up to those weight-classes, though.

    I'm too barrel chested, couldn't cut down for my reach and height.

    If I took up the sport at a more reasonable age. 135-154 with 140 and 147 being my best weights.
    Right now I walk around in the 160-165 range. If I can comfortably make 154 I'd fight there. I would go no higher than 168.

    I would fight at heavyweight. I am certain that I would be competitive, if not champion, in any heavyweight era but the current, I have the style to dominate the heavyweights, but unfortunatley this is one of the TOUGHEST heavyweight eras of all time.

    If i had started at the right age i probably would be fighting from 168 to CW during a career. I have a lot of muscles in wrong places since i did mostly football in HS.
