You gotta start an amateur career first....which means join a gym and then once you are ready, they will put you on amateur cards.

I really like how this is in the Boxing category.  You should hit him with a right cross as soon as it looks like he's trying to get fresh with ya.

Well the first thing you'd need to do is to ask yourself why are you doing this. If it's for the love of the sport then read on, if it's because your brother called you chikensh!t and you want some revenge then just hit him with a 2x4. First and foremost it would be advisable to ask your doctor to perform a full physical on you and afterwards ask him if you are physically healthy enough to take on the challenge that this sort of sport brings on. If you are cleared then the easy part is over. Next find youself a good agent and start training in the technique of your choosing(gecko-roman wrestling, boxing, etc...) until you are at the peak of physical fitness(that means no more jelly donuts)and well educated in your technique. Before doing anything else goto your doctor again for another complete physical re-evaluation and then buy alot of medical insurance because it's like then say, bones are made to be broken. If your agent comes through then s/he should be able to get you some amatuer fights to test your ability. Follow up from there and if you are serious about this good luck and have a nice few hospital visits.

Wow, you've got some pretty nice equipment there, all that you need to get in shape.  I'd go online and look for boxing dvd's to either have someone else to do it with (on the dvd) or get pointers for it.  Nice equipment, good job!

Ive been running a very successful boxing gym now for 3 years! to get started you need to get in contact with the local council and take it from there.  But having friends only as your members will really restrict wot your club can do also u will lose alot of income which you get from the public!! you need insurance for public liability! Risk assessments .. If you open up to the public you qualify for grants which can pay for all your gym equipment to get you started! You need to be a qualified boxing coach if you are to teach and also be first aid qualified incase of accidents! good luck ! If you need anymore help mate just ask !

I know USA Boxing holds clinics.  Usually my dad teaches the clinics.  I would ask him, but he is out of town right now.  I know you have to take a test after the clinic. Go to www.usaboxing.org   Click on "membership".

Join an amateur boxing club or gym. Just be careful its a tough sport. \n\nAlso instead of paying for expensive lessons or camps, why not buy a heavy bag and install it at home. That way you can learn on your own from textbooks or the internet.

I can give you some pointers on how to box because my brother taught me. He was a boxer, and that is where I learned how to fight. First, your feet must be at least two inches apart, but you have to keep them at an angle. Then, always keep both fists up in front of your face. This to protect you from someone who wants to try and get into your "space." Next, you have to slightly twist your elbow, (not by much), in order to put force behind your punch. Your fists should always be as tight as you can make it, and your thumb should be tucked in close to your palm(this is to prevent breakage that might occur if you hit someone where there is bone). Then, you make sure you direct all of your strength in your arm from the top of your shoulder, to your wrist. These have been the most effective methods that I have used when someone wanted to hurt me and I retaliated. But if you are a minor, then maybe you shouldn't be thinking about how to injure anyone. Well, I hope that this will be able to help you!! Add a comment to let me know how it goes.

My guess would be to search the boxing associations websites (i.e., WBA, WBO, IBF, etc.) or try the boxing commisions at the state level (i.e., Neveda, New Jersey, etc.).

There is no Boxer Degree.The best you can hope for is to make the boxing team ,provided the school you attend has one.The easiest way for you to get involved,learn,train,and compete to get to professional level that "pays to fight" is Golden Gloves amateur boxing.It exists in almost every country on the planet.Just search for the golden gloves in your area on the web.Good Luck.

The first thing you should do is have some amatuer fights. Then after at least 30 amatuer fights(depending on your weight class) you should have an idea of where you stand.

you can be a proffesional at any time, depending on the people your around i suppose, if you wanna turn pro you need to have contacts of promoters to get you in the ring with other proffesionals. if you have contacts you can be a pro in no time.\n\nprofesional boxing is more to do with the entertaining and advertising side of boxing, however amature boxing is more to do with the fun of the sport (and also you wont get hurt as much)\n\ni'd advise you to get to know a lot of contacts, did you talk to any of your trainers about the pro game? i'm sure they'll get some promoters looking for a good boxer, the boxing commision are desparate for a good flyweight boxer\n\ngood question, i wud've asked it myself. good luck anyway hope i see you on tv some time:)
