[quote="The Original Hurricane"]I think the comment about inverted snobbery is correct. If you are serious about learning boxing, I don't see what job you do is important.

I agree.
I box (amateur) and have an office job as do several of my clubmates.
John Killian (an undefeated pro) is training to be an accountant or a lawyer, I forget which.
White collar is how I started in the sport then went amateur. It attracts a different crowd, one that would normally never go to an amateur or pro show. It is good for getting people into boxing who would never have done so before.
