Im 15 years old boy 6.1 tall 82 kg. How do i become a pro boxer.there is no boxing club in my city.I know each and every technique of boxing.i havent fought in any amateur boxing and dont wanna waste time on that.there are not even one good boxer in India so im sure that i can defeat them believe me.Pls pls pls pls tell of i beg you what do i do to become a pro boxer and want to be the youngest world heavyweight champ.

Answer
You need to contact whoever is in charge of pro boxing in India and find out what their requirements are, specifically pertaining to age.  Each country is different.  You're probably not going to go very far without at least two or three years in amateur boxing.  That's where you learn the basic skills and techniques.  I doubt seriously that anyone would allow you to fight as a pro without any prior experience.
