Is it possible to drive and to fight professional boxing? Of course respecting my duty to company and meeting their goals. What are the off times looking like? I really want to get into boxing as well. I can train calesthenics and shadowboxing anywhere.

Depends on what job you're doing. Driving job are extremely varied, plus your discipline level.

It's possible. Just have to coordinate loads with the cities where the boxing event takes place. As a full time trucker though it would be very hard to stay in training shape I would imagine. Some other things to consider is parking and hours of service. Some of the places where the boxing is, may not be able to hold a big truck. and what if you're on the way to the match and your hours run out 50 miles away stuff like that.

If you want to box professional you have to dedicate 8 hours daily to training and that's minimum. I boxed amateur years ago and have friends who turned pro. I'm also carded to train and judge bouts.
There is not a tougher racket to make a dime in. You have no idea how tough the competition is until you turn pro! There are a lot of very talented and hungry pugilists. Consider training 8 hours a day for 3 months and then getting $200 after expenses for a 8 round fight. Its all or nothing.,,,but follow your dream. -
I box for fun and exercise. I don't see how it would be possible to put in the training and have a proper diet out on the road. In addition, you must consider your age if you're just beginning. Many of your pro fighters started boxing as kids/teens. If you had a local driving job, that would be much better. You can still train and hopefully fight people at your age and skill level.

It would be tough otr but running local is possible btw I didn't know they still had boxing lol just messing I'm into mma and when I was running local training wasn't a problem.

There's big money in boxing if you have a big mouth lol. Most recently a big mouthed boxing debut fighter with a record of 0-0 in boxing made a $100 million payday even though he lost the fight lol

Does that make sense? -
If you can find a friend who works in a meat packing plant, that may help.
