    I've wanted to do boxing for a while now, im really fit as i do muay thai .

    I've got experience , have had 4 muay thai fights and 4 MMA fights.

    I want to do boxing though, and my question is what are the best clubs around the finglas area? (dublin11)

    Also, would i be put in with the beginners like everyone else or would they let me train with fighters etc.

    I'm 17 and interested in fighting

    Most Boxing clubs don't work in levels but you will be put in sparring with similar ability lad's, go onto the stickies on here and check out the Finglas club's and go up and try them out.

    really ? thought it'd work like a thai class (beginner/fighter sessions),

    just don't want to start at the bottom again

    grand, i'll have a look now, thanks !

    No, It's very different from Thai-I run a club and the best lads train with 1st timers, sometimes even spar together but more move around with the new lads..
