Can i a persons start boxing at the age of..?

Question

not just successful i mean to become a champion as in LENNOX LEWIS* and has anyone every achieved such success from starting at that age?

Answer 1

mike tyson I believe started when he was 13 but 17 is certainly a good age to start learning to box. I wish I had started at age 17. you should encourage your cousin and help him train if you can. tell him about the website crossfit.com for fitness and nutrition.

Answer 2

The current olympic heavyweight for the US didnt start till he was like 20 I believe and only has like 3 years training, so yeah 17yo can do it.

Answer 3

no way there are professional fighters that started fighting at 25 its never too late he wont be able to get 100 amature fights like the guys who started at 5 but he could definitly be a sucesful pro starting at 17
