HOW TO KNOW WHAT WEIGHT CLASS YOU SHOULD FIGHT AT ‼️ (BOXING MMA WRESTLING)

Im 17 yrs old, 5'5, currently 95 lbs and if I wanna fight I need to be at 106 lbs, Almost there yall 😤😤💪💪

Thanks coach v this was hella helpful

I agree with you brother 👍🏼🥊 People are so quick to go off bmi standards with height / weight ratio. Couldn’t be further from the truth. Its so much more in depth than height. Its bone density and build. Iron mike was short for a heavyweight but he was born thick boned and stocky which bulked his weight right up. Like you were saying in regards to tall fighters in lower weight classes, I remember one boxer in my gym years ago, he was about 6”3 and weight 10stone soaking wet. I was always a short ass for my weight, i fought at light heavy / amateurs, and at 5”9 i was weighing 81kg without hardly any body fat. Luckily i had build across the shoulders which graced me with strength and power with the natural lower centre of gravity. The problem is, if id have gone down to middleweight, id have lost my natural body mass and would’ve had to have severely dehydrated myself. Thats when you have to consider whether or not you want to compete because when you start cutting weight is when serious injuries i.e bleed on the brain etc start happening. Id prefer to have a tiny percentage of body fat and fight bigger guys than fight people my own sort of height but feel skinny and ill any day of the week.

Great Advice🙏Thank You💪😤

I'm 5'11 and I used to be severely overweight at 250lbs. I started to get into shape and shedding the pounds and so far I'm at 155-160lbs and I think that's my ideal weight. I plan on competing at 154lbs.

I stand 6ft naturally weighing around 197lbs with a reach of 76. I train Muay Thai. My coach wants to find me a kickboxing match. This was a great informative video. Thank you!

Just started boxing and I'm excited to eventually get to my first fight. I recently went from 230lb to a much leaner 196, but I think I'm going to drop to my former weightlifing weight (180) and then figure out where I perform best. Nutrition plays a massive role

Thanks for the video.

Solid advice coach, appreciate it.

Thanks for the tips Coach* 👽👌 Stay Safe

Kickboxer and karate martial artists! been training for a 8+ years muay thai, tang soo do thai kwondo, i’ve been trying to get a fight 6’0 190(walk around weight), i want to fight at 170 work my way around to maybe 205

Heck yeah, I was wondering the same thing, but wasn't sure, thanks coach for another awesome, informative video. I'm 5''10" 196lb at this time and can't wait to see what i will be at 6 months from now.

Yo Coach, can you drop a tutorial video on the double bag?

I am 1m72 and 74-75kg with like 13% bf. I am massive for someone of my height and I usually fight taller dudes. It helps a lot when I am in short range and just use hooks and low kicks but it’s hard when I am in long range and the opponent just harass me with kicks and jabs.

I'm thinking 205. I was 246 last year, but now I weigh 210 in the morning. So if I can eat even cleaner and train harder, I can make 205 without even cutting. If it doesn't work, I'll sweat down to 186. Thanks

I’ve never actually boxed but I’ve always been into it. But I’m pretty heavy for my height and I was always thinking that I’d have to fight guys a lot taller than me. I’m just barely 5’4 but my natural weight is 160-165, when I played football I got to 180.

use to fight at 132 when I first started 14. After a 2 year layoff and being 19 I now feel better at 147. Want to fight at 138 but can't seem to make that weight. So 147 has chosen me I'm guessing.

Great advice

Cool video. subscribed!

I needed this video. Being 5’7 I thought I needed to weigh like 147. I’m trying to weigh 168 I’m 10 pounds away (used to train like a bodybuilder, I’m 178 with abs and all)
