to fight again as an amatuer or turn pro

[Youngblood]

Don't turn professional.
It's the most disgusting industry imaginable.
Fight amateur as much as you can.

While I agree with that Donny, gotta consider perspective. If ya already did it you can at the end of the day say to the grandkids, "I fought in the pros". This fella sounds like he just wants that too. Plus maybe see how he fares. I'd imagine it be much worse to go the full 9 yards in life, and wondering why ya never took a shot if it were close to your heart.
