Is a boxing career a good kickstarter for an acting career?

[ForgottenArab]

I’m in my last year of high school right now and i’m still confused on what I wanna do for college, the only thing i’m really good at is boxing, but since I started at late 15 my chances of doing really good or becoming a world champion are very slim but can be achieved with dedication. But I was thinking I want to put my self out there try to get known and speak with agencies I guess for a shot to act. But I don’t have a backup plan and I currently work a part time job that can be full time after high school, do I take the risk, focus on boxing and work the job to support my self or do I take the safe route and go to college, or is it manageable to go to college while focusing on boxing. If your in college rn some feedback would be nice

I want boxing fs, it’s really hard to tell my mom that my heart isn’t there for school, I haven’t even told her that i’m not even considering uni, I just need to save up money so I can be ready to be kicked tf out the house

dont bother with acting js dont, its connections above everything and its also heavily location based

train harder for boxing if u really wanna go for it, js know the reality of it,

I was thinking like I would only think about acting if I became somewhat popular so I could gain those connections yk, but rn yes i’ll just train hard

idk i was just thinking about how the rock, jhon cena, connor mcgregor were able to get acting roles because of prior popularity in martial arts I gues, I was just thinking MAYBE if I have a good boxing career then I could try cuz why not yk it was just a thought
