Could I take up boxing?

[ICB]

Over the years I've thought about starting to take boxing lessons and I was wondering do you think I could? please bear in mind;

- I am 33 years old
- My weight is roughly 9 stone 7lbs (or 133 pounds)
- I like walking and can walk long distances
- I'm quite skinny
- Also I don't know if I could get punched in the face without getting knocked out every single time
- I like martial arts but apart from very minor things I've never really tried it

Of course it's hard to make a judgement from that but off hand what do you think?

Have to be honest with you yes anybody can do boxing, but first off if your taking boxing seriously. Then you need to be prepared for a lot of hard work and you will get hurt if your having a proper amateur fight, boxing isn't an easy sport and its hard physically and mentally. But if your just doing it to keep fit and etc then why not go right ahead.
