WELCOME TO THE NEW USA MASTERS BOXING WEBSITE

We want to welcome you to the newly designed and released USA Masters Boxing website. This website is not attached or a part of USA Boxing but has been created to provide direct information about masters boxing to master boxers and help simplify the process of becoming a master boxer and competing. The website was created in 2003 when the support for masters was limited at best and help was nearly none existing. The growth and support from USA Boxing for masters has been great through out the years but we find that masters and potential master boxers still have trouble finding the proper information. We’ve taken the time to gather the information with step by step instructions to make the process easier for everyone. We support USA Boxing 100% and hope this website is seen for what it is, a helping hand to master boxers in the process to becoming active members and participants of USA Boxing.

THE BREAKDOWN

COMPETING AS A MASTER BOXER

When competing as a master boxer, you will be matched by age, weight, and experience. The goal is to match up every boxer as close as possible with these categories and the maximum difference for each is as follows. Age has to be with in 10 years, up or down. Weight, depending on your weight class, you must be within 8lbs, 10lbs, or 15lbs. There are two catagories for experience. NOVICE is 0 to 10 bouts and OPEN is 11 or more bouts. Once someone has had 5 bouts, they have the option to compete as an OPEN master boxer. Again, the goal is to have matchups as close as possible and we like to keep age with in 5 years especially with the older master boxers. Weight we like to keep with in 5lbs and experience with in 3 bouts. Some bouts might have the max difference as this might be the only match up possible. It is your choice to take or decline the bout.
