Boxing weight class i go for?
hi everyone, just wanted to ask some advice, well here goes, i am 23yrs old, im 5ft 9 tall and i used to box at the 18yrs old at 73.5kg, i always felt really skinny but had good fights and some really good wins, but anyway i had some time off and my weight blew up to over 16. 7 stone, so in june i started training and now i weight 12 stone 7pounds, i had my body fat checked and found out that my lean mass was only just over 10 stone, now the thing is i dont want really want to box again in that low weight. ive bin told that i should build some muscle (around 10pounds) and then try and lose some body fat but im unsure what sort of weight i could make. i would like to gain some mass and fit into my old weight or just a bit lower but this time round be a bigger and stronger boxer at the weight, does anyone think that would be a good plan? any advice on this because i havent got a clue what to do lol thanks

- Well considering your 5'9" and weigh 175 lbs. and you dont wanna fight at a lower weight class, i'd say you should fight in the Super Middleweight class, because your a little short for the Light Heavyweight division and just about right for the Super Middleweight division
