Its possible but you realistically have to dedicate your life to it. Diet, training, amatuer fights, sparring, everyday.

this. why not settle for boxing as a life style but not as a career. my boyfriend does that with various martial arts. hes pretty good, wins the majority of his fights, but he does it all for fun

Not true. Look at tyson fury.

Op, if you wanna box, then box. But only if you like the whole package and enjoy the tough times. If you try to push yourself through when you dont genuinly enjoy it, you will eventually hit the wall.

And remember: the first 1-2-3 years youre gonna get alot of beating

You dont neccecarily need an athletic body

Not entirely sure if you could get a good career going, but if you aren't athletic now this will definitely help. I've been boxing around 4 years and I've put on a lot of muscle. It also helped me quit smoking. The only downside is that I've become addicted to fighting. The adrenaline rush it gives me is fucking amazing, I would seriously love to fight someone in the middle of the street or some shit.

It's only worth it if you can make money. Otherwise you'll end up not being able to remember your own name AND be broke.

Muhammad Ali. The greatest, and see what boxing did to him.
