Thread: New here, am I crazy?

Hello everyone:

I'm newly registered here and I just wanted some feedback. I am currently 29 years old and the boxing bug has bit me at a very late stage. I've been weight-training for five years now and I'm 5'10" 164lbs at my most comfortable/lightest weight. I recently joined a boxing club (against the wishes of my wife) and I have a personal trainer who is now training me. I'm starting a non-competitive route; however, my end goal is to fight at least one three round competitive match. My new gym is an olympic training gym. I have posted pictures below, which have been taken this month at 164lbs. I would appreciate any feedback concerning my condition or my expectations. Am I crazy for wanting to do this at 29? I also realize I have a lot to learn since I have no boxing experience.

Thanks everyone.

Lou

And here is another pic from this month. Thanks again for the feedback.

hey bro go for it,if its what you really want,hey you only live once and your only getting older,so just do it....i mean you dont want to be world champ or anything,you only want a couple of amature fights right? so do it you look pretty fit ,your in better shape than me anywayz

Its never to late to start bruv, as long as your enjoying it and dont expect to much to quickly, you look in pretty good shape so thats a starting point, anyway good luck and enjoy
p.s it can take over your life so be warned.
