Re: HOW EXACTLY DO I GET MY BOXING LICENSE?
Latino, at first I thought your reqeust was a bit silly. But we all forget, I had the same thing happen to me, didnt know how to start and moved 300 miles to get a gym. Hadnt got a clue but knew I wanted to do it, anyway have a cc for staying polite.

Maybe you should try some amateur bouts first....
Where are you located, City and State.
First of all, you need a Federal ID, which means you need to get Blood Work and a Physical completed before you can file for any State licensure.
Blood Work usually runs about $180-350, depending on where you go and how fast you need the results...You need to have HIV and Hepetitus done.
State licenses normally run about $10-50 depending on where you are....And you can get those whenever you goto your first fight. They will do them at the weigh ins...
And the bit about a trainer.....you cant survive this business without one, you just need to trust me on this.....ALSO, management is important also. Some people may not agree, but, there are some things with the business that a fighter just does not need to handle. And guidance is not a bad thing to have...
Lemme know if that helps...
Good Luck,
Coach
Re: HOW EXACTLY DO I GET MY BOXING LICENSE?
well yea thanks Scrap. wow thats a long ways to go for a boxing gym, but i guess if your really that hungry then its worth it. i would gladly move somewhere where i can get to a boxing gym easier and get a trainer but i have a family to take care of too. I have a 5 month old daughter and im engaged. Im only 18. She was born when i was only 17. so yes im tryin to launch me a career in boxing as soon as possible to help support my family. but im located in Lawton, Oklahoma. Its a little city of about 100,000 not counting the military base. its where this years contender champion Grady Brewer is from. but thanks alot boxingcoachbw. that helps alot. i just need to come up with some cash to get the blood work done then. where are u located coach?
