why is it that a boy cant box in a open or skills bout untill he is 11 yo . when in wales they can box at ten. if for example you get a talented 7 or 8 yo and they are good enough to get in the ring and box they then have to wait 3 or 4 years to box . now what a shame when these kids get bored with waiting and leave, as on a number of occasions ive come across. surely the age could come down to 10

I agree, I would like to see it be 10 years old too.
