    I've been boxing for about 3.5 years seriously. I was a fitness person before that.

    Zero fights, my first fight will be in a few months.

    My sparring partners are all decent amateur fighters, doing well with them in the ring convinced me to compete after all.

    My training has been pretty consistent except for a few short periods of inactivity. At this moment I'm back to 5 times a week boxing training, the other two days I do whatever I feel like, running, cycling, or whatever.

    What is the average comeptition you face? I've sparred with some good pro's and some guys who were getting in the ring for the first time. Usually it's guys with a few amateur fights.
    How consistent is your training? 5-6 days a week now. Had to take a long period of time off due to injury so I'm just getting back into it now.

    I did a little in the summer but I've been doing it consistently since November which makes it about 7 and 1/2 months.

    None yet hope to have some this summer.

    None

    Nope

    I mostly spar with a bunch of begginers and occasionally someone who is way better than me. But recently i found someone who can bang for a few rounds whos about as good as me.

    I train about every other day, Usually do calisthenics or cardio on my off days or sometimes nothing. I have no set schedule since if I don't feel good I wont go to the gym cause i cant get the best workout but I never dont train more than 3 days unless i purposly take a week off.
