like height to weight ratio what division would suit me best
THat 's just exactly my case
I am returning to amateur boxing after a pause
I was about 82 kg and fat, now I dropped someweight, got muscles, but because of belly fat I am still about 77 kg. If I prepare for a fight, I think I can make it now at 75 maybe. I plan to drop to 72 or even 69.
I decided not to cut on weight too much, but change the boxing style. Younger I boxed as a classical orthodox with people of my height and reach more or less at 60-64 kg weight category. Now I will be fighting taller guys with longer reach, much lighter on their feet than me. I decided to adopt peak-a-boe style as best as I can.
THis is my best advice I can give you: do not cut on weight too much, so you feel uncomfortable, pay attention to the technique and style.
