welcome back

what happened to you taking up football/basketball/volleyball?

Never too late. Good luck finding a contact gym though, they all but disappeared from my city.

>>150874482 (OP)
No. Find a good gym that treats noobs well. Have an interclub bout and see how you go.

>>150874482 (OP)
No, you can become a pro and be champions.
Just train your jab and gravitational balance.
Cover your weak sports and do faints.

Dempesy roll is a good finish technique to roll over oponents but you need to go all out.

See everything as a videogame, You gonna start from low ranks.

33yo anon here, just started this year. I'm doing savate though. Just look for a beginner/casual course and you'll be fine.

>>150874482 (OP)
it's never too late to start something as a hobby, just don't go in with the expectation of excelling.

It's never too late to get early onset dementia. Go for it, anon!

>>150874482 (OP)
You'll do as well as you are willing to work and learn, like every other activity.

Yes, it’s too late. Anyway, the social contract for men is broken. No point in doing anything/doing anything that can be considered “self-improvement.”

I started at 31, but it was more a way to stay in shape in the winter and because i like boxing

i like to work the heavybag at home and just kind of hone my various punches technique and footwork, it's a lot of fun, but i'm not really trying to fight others or get punched in the face

i started at 50
never too old

>I'm 35 years old, is it too late
yes

no, of course not

Couldn't you try some other form of exercise? Like masturbation, or running after women at night?

If he's 35 it won't be early onset dementia, just the regular kind when he gets it. Its a pro move.

>>150874482 (OP)
No but you'll be awkward as fuck and no matter how hard you try you won't look like the guys on TV. The guys who boxed before puberty have that muscle memory built into them and are naturally fluid

That Nigerian boxer that went crazy is coming back at 51 after getting out of jail . Hopkins and first arslen fought till they were 50.
Just try. Maybe op can do amateur maybe pro. Which is still better than most people. Remember there is only 1 champ.

>>150874482 (OP)
As a hobby yeah but proper boxing no, unless you want to be a can for younger boxers to heem
