Should i do boxing for a living or focus more on getting a degree?

boxing is better,

Get a degree,unless you are good enough to make big bucks you can not support yourself by boxing.

Study, look toward your future, and that means beyond a possible boxing career. Even if you are good at boxing it can not last more than a few years, relative to your life time.

Get your degree now.

Normally, boxing careers don't last long. There are exceptions to the rule, of course.

I would say get your degree. No one can take that away from you. After you get your degree, you could go after your dreams of fighting pro.

I would be concerned that after your boxing years you may not be able to get a degree. Getting hit in the head tends to make it hard to think.

Maybe do school first?

Get your degree while you box. Man up!

No excuses! Only the strong survive.

why not do both? That way if boxing does not work you have something to fall back on.

This has been a constant frustration for me. I started boxing 2 years ago and i love it and thought ill do this to make a living. But now that am in college my grades tanked horrbly my gpa went so low am almost in probation all because i let myself think i was going to box. Now idk what to do i want finish school get my degree and be a top student which i have garanteed if i study hard but for boxing roberto duran told me that many boxers fight over 100 fights and never even in the spot light and boxing is a temp thing unlike a degree where its forever. I know it all cones down to me but i just wanna know whats others would do
