Just in your regular life have you had your nose broken before? The first time your nose gets broke it will be the worst.

You still have time. Look at a guy like
Rocky Marciano, he didn't start boxing until he was in his 20's. Same with Ron Lyle, Nate Campbell, Larry Holmes, and Sonny Liston. In the amateurs they have divisions for people that are older.

I suggest you get your self a pair of
boxing gloves find a willing buddy and go at it ,that way you'll get a feel for what you're getting your self into, getting up on a ring against a guy you don't know is the last thing you wanna do without any experience, because if the other guy knows more than you than most likely it will be your first and last experiene. good luck.

well what might have happened is that when you extended the right hand for a punch you might have missed and caused the muscles and liagamnets to hyperextend; therefore, you have inflammation around the joint. Best advice is to heat for 15-20 min and then
ice pack 15-20 min two to three times a day until the pain is gone. MAKE SURE YOU REST THAT ARM or it will be a lingering injury for you. ...

It happens man. Try not to fight a guy with such an experience and weight advantage next time.

Not during the fight I don't. Once the bell rings the nervousness usually goes away for me. But
before the bell I try to think past the fight and it usually works. Also try taking deep breaths.

am 6 feet tall with a reach of 75.5 inches. How should I train for the average height/reach of an opponent in my weight class? cheers.

I started boxing only 3-weeks ago. When i first went my coach wanted to know about me, my lifestyle and if i wanted to fight or keep fit. It was really daunting at first but as soon as you start training you forget about everybody else there. Expect alot of confidence building exercises, aswell as hitting the bags and
sparring. Just have fun....................Hope it all goes well for you.
