5 year Old Boxing Prodigy UK - Future World Champion

[No Contest]

"The trainer there has said you have a future world champion on your hand and he needs to be nutured correctly." Please tell me you meant to say nurtured? Don't force the issue or he will be burnt out by the time he's ten. Let him take some classes or something, also you don't want your kid working out alot at 5 or his muscles may not develop fully.

I don't know, I think I could take this kid.

Very good for a 5 year old. But just remember, like the others said you don't want to force anything on him. He's got to want it for his self as well, you can't just want it for him.

I reckon I have a future champion on my hand here and i need to ensure his early development is good. [/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]

the fact that you're trying to "ensure" anything is a bad sign already..i can see it now..

"No Daddy i dont wanna box!"

"SON! NOW YOU LISTEN TO ME YOU LITTLE SHIT!..."

*slap slap*

Not trying to draw a comparison here, but not long ago there was a similar one going around with a 6 year old. Same kinda deal. Before long there was a' donate' function direct to paypal there. It made my stomach turn.

Was exploitation, basically.

Not suggesting this is your case adamsuperkid, I think you are likely a boxing fan who is excited about his son and the prospect of him boxing, and he does look good, ya know, for a 5 year old. I do know I got force fed hockey early in my life, and I ended up refusing to go because I ended up hating it, and then felt bad about it. Like I let my family down. (It's a canadian thing)

I am 14 now and got introduced to boxing around 11-12. Love it and am learning as my body develops. My coaches say it is a good age.

Anyway, wish your son luck.
