    Average age to go pro?

    I hear some amazing stories of how some boxers turned pro when they were too old or too young and were still awesome. So what would you say is the good average age ive heard some people say late teens, mid twenties, 20, 24 etc. so what would you say I mean is there an appropriate age or so, just curious?

      Early 20's. It all depends on the person though and when they feel ready.

      Bernard Hopkins had his first pro fight at 23. He lost and took time off then came back at 25 to become a successful fighter and dominate the Middleweight division and win multiple titles.

      Nate Campbell started at just before he turned 28. At 36 he won three world titles at Lightweight.

      Rocky Marciano started around 24-25 also and he went on to become the only undefeated Heavyweight Champion.
