At 123, but might go down lower; I'm 5`7. Not sure yet, I need to go down to MEPS for a 5th time (FML) to pick my job and swear in.
Poor *******. I only had to do MEPS twice, thank God. Good luck though. Air Force has some decent boxing; the best service program is the Army's but unless you're open class you're probably not getting into WCAP.
MEPS is like a prison, I seriously think about suicide when I'm there lol. I wouldn't want to tbh, I fought an all-marine; I won surprisingly . But yeah, their life is nothing but boxing. I don't think I'm ready for all that yet
It's the place where in your case the doctors would say you're not fit for service due to personality disorders.
He's serious, if you have multiple speeding tickets or w.e they will make you talk to a psychiotrist and do cat scans
Not exactly, when you go big it is. But I know a few pros who have 2nd jobs, Steve almaraz has a Texas Title
Lot's of pro's have or have had second jobs... Micky Ward was one of the better ones to work full time and box at a high level. Their whole life is still centrered around boxing however - take it as indicative of a very sad situation. A low level pro needs to work to earn enough to live, and fights to try to raise his reputation so he doesn't have to earn, but the two rarely mix well - like I said, Micky Ward is one exception... most are beat up on and used as 'padders'. Working full time and going pro is a one way street, and it's not a street that I would like to visit
Why are you worried about going pro if you're joining the Air Force? The Air Force has its own boxing team. If you have enough talent, you should be able to make it onto the team. If you can't make it onto the team, train harder or reconsider becoming a prizefighter. I know the Marine Corps have their own boxing team, and the guys who make it onto the team do nothing but train for boxing all day. Anyways, good luck. I hope the job you choose has skills that are transferable to civilian life.
