I'm interested, is there an age limit ? And will there be more weight divisions soon ? I'm currently around 15st and unfit, I need a target, if my diet is good and my training can get back to how it used to be I can get to light heavy, super middle at a push, I'm seriously interested.

If its as successful as im hoping then will do another one the same with different weights before the end of the year , thinking Cruiserweight , Light Middle and Lightweight but long way to go before that point yet , will see how things end up .

Im considering an age limit as its meant to find future pros , bit pointless if theyre too old to go pro , but not made a decision on it as yet .

I have spoken with the area guy (Les Potts), going to see out my bookings ive got on unlicensed circuit (and hold onto any monies made as a pro nest egg) and then take out the license in January , everything is ticking over .

[The Insider]

Les is a top bloke.

It's easy to make a small fortune in the pro game.......just start with a large one :)

Good luck to you mate.

think you have to have a pro licence in the last 3 years consecutive before you can aply for a managers or promoters licence first??
and a bond of £10k!!

[Bennyblanco]

Fair play Damian, sounds a good idea

[kamicazze]

Its only a managers licence you need a licence for 3 years for. Theres a few promoters who have got it stright away.

[fightacademy]

Right!! thats why i put a ???

i know you have to put a 10k bond tho

is that Mr Pegg?

[jonp]

yeh Steffy its me. I think the 10 k bond sorts the messers out lol.

[fightacademy]

i thought it was you... yeah spoilt it for us grafters lol i had to rob a bank for my bond

[damianhucker1]

Yeah cheers steffy , already spoke to Les at the board to state intentions etc earlier in the year , from what i understood all was ok but will have to wait 3 years to get managers , considered taking out a seconds license prior to promoting to speed that up a bit but thought if im involved in fighters corners etc it might be a bit of a conflict of interest long term , so just taking out the promotors license in january after all my unlicensed bookings are completed and will get the managers as well when the time comes .

I think its pretty obvious that people wont put the bond down unless their serious about giving it a good crack , either that or theyre on crack .
