Good luck bro, wish I started that young!

I just started training about 6 months ago. My ultimate goal is to get in great shape and have some amatuer fights. I'm probably too old to turn pro, but we'll see what kind of amateur career I can have. Al Jackson just had his first pro fight (and won) last night in Augusta, and he's 32.

Took up boxing Nov 2006. Im 35.

I want to get one Masters Boxing bout under my belt before summer next year and take it from there. Hoping to learn enough to someday help train my son should he have intrest in the ohh so sweet science.

Been training since Feb 2006.

My original goal was to get over a paralyzing fear of getting punched (hence my moniker "Fraidycat.") I would freeze completely, stop breathing, everything. Check.

My next goal was to lose about 40 lbs. Check.

My next goal was to compete in public. Check.

I want to have at least one official amateur bout next year, and compete at Ringside in '08 or perhaps '09, in the Master Division. I turn 37 this year and I want to go to some sort of nationals before I'm 40. I don't think it's unrealistic.

I would like to have a Golden Gloves trophy before I'm 45. USA Boxing is finally allowing the Master Boxers into select GG tourneys as of last year.
