how old is too old to start at the amature level? do u think 17 is too old?
nope not to old
lots of people start to box older than that.
some even turned pro
what age is to old to become pro?
On Friday Fight night a bloke made his pro debut at the age of 32, he isnt going to have a long and distinguished career but he still did it.
He got stopped ;)
age is a number
the day you are good enough is the day you start your career as pro.
the day you aint good enough ANYMORE is the day you retire.
and if you did not start your pro career before that day....well then it's to late mate

The maximum age for amateur boxers in open class is 35 years of age.
iz that to get in or iz it wen ur 35 you have to retire?
Thats when you are to old for open competition, I know its not exactly what you want, but in theory you could start boxing at 25 and have an amateur career of 10 years, in short, you are not, nor will not be too old.
how do you join an amature league?
Join a club, look here.
