Can you fight and sell tickets
Re: pro trainers and promoters
well in amuture i had 24 bouts 23 wins and 12 stoppages so im ok at fighting. i boxed for the combined services in the army and i have a big family plus alot of friends so i think i could do both but i know pro is completely different. :)

Sheffield He has a couple of Lads from Bradford maybe come down with them. I have a lad comes down from Skipton they think its worth it.
Re: pro trainers and promoters
Make sure your trainer cares about you and making money isn't his top priority
but scrap has a good point..............to be successfull in this sport you've to be able to sell tickets! people have got to like you more than anything
Re: pro trainers and promoters
