    After reading the trailer park threads In the lounge and reading American state sites were It sounds like you can get one In a cereal box, I'm curious what do you have to do to get one In Britain? All I know Is the standards much higher and no way would they be licensed here and Stacy would be laughed out of Britain.

    I ain't gettting one either, this threads just for discussion.

    So Kid thunder paid 30$ for his license and Amsterdam tells me all else you need Is to pass a physical which costs $100.

    It costs nearly a grand.... Renewals can cost more... you are interviewd and details from your amateur career are recorded. Its pretty expensive and stringent to be fair.

    £1,000 is a lot of money for some of the youngesters to pay - if you do not get a big signing on bonus with a promoter.

    If your smart - get a sponser local businesses love backing sportsmen. One of my best friends backed me and would do if I was to box again.
