Yo. I've always had an aspiration to box since I was a little kid, but could never pursue this. Now my parents are down with the idea so I was just wondering about some basic things I should know on boxing. I'm 17 years old, my height is 5'7, and I weigh 136lbs. I'm smaller than a lot of people my age, but I've been known to have a lot of strength and endurance for some one of my size who's never had any boxing experience. I do play football and train for that. So I was just wondering what types of things I would need to get started. I live two short blocks from a gym, and plan to do my work there. So I was wondering what size training gloves I would need and other things like that. I'm really motivated to accomplish some thing once I set my eyes on it, and I feel that boxing would be a good step for me. If any one could help me by filling in any info I may need, that would be greatly appreciated.
