    If your trainer thinks you will, and you trust him then I guess it's not too soon.

    Do you mean you've only been training in boxing a month?

    Cause if so..You must be some kind of prodigy

    My first fight was in the gloves (subnovice division), and I got my ass kicked but it was a good experience...in a totally non-physical sense.

    One month is too soon if your opponent has 3 months or he sucks/you're awesome. But I say go for it it's a great opportunity to get a win early, not much to lose here. You'll be miles ahead of where you are now just from the experience.

    If you win , it'll be a good booster.

    If you lose, don't take the loss too hard! 1 month is really little.

    ALL the best, kick his ass!
