I'm no expert but it seems that in boxing size plays a role. The last time i watched feather weight boxing during the olympics was the LAST time i watched feather weight boxing.i can't remeber the countries but The 2 idiots were cat fighting. They were more like madly tapping each other's bodies, hugging, being broken up by the ref. At least watching middle-weights fight has a kick to it, when they fight you can see when someone really starts getting it handed to him. The Feather weight seemed like he gave up because he got too tired to wildly tap his opponent on the body. He wasn't injured or smacked around by his opponent, he was just exhausted. Trust me, when they punched each other's heads, neither got a hit that swung their heads or anything.
Dunno about MT but even a feather weight could knock someone out with an elbow, reducing the importance of size? Don't get me wrong it still plays a part.
I guess the surest way to find out if your instructor is any good to you is to join tournaments. Decide from there.It could be that either your teacher isn't good or MT Just isn't your thing. Or you might find MT is exactly what you want to do for the next 45 years.
