The Rastafarians have no strict rules or dogmatic in their thinking.They are a loving and accepting religion and could not see them objecting to amatuer boxing.

if ur boxing but not fighting u r ok, if ur opponent is not rastafarian and is ok with being hit Jah is ok with it

As long as you are doing it for sport, and not just to hurt the other person, then you should be fine. Just remember to be a good sport after the match, no matter how it goes!

You must always know that boxing is a sport. RASTAFARI starts in your heart. Hence peace starts in your heart. If you get to the point where you want to kill your opponent you need get on your knees and pray for JAH to remove that vibration.(Matthew 26: 51-53)

Boxing is a sport and there is some form of violence in most.

boxing never realy sounded like a good career move to me anyway, because you are putting youself in a position to get hurt or to hurt someone else, the goal is pain and suffering. it sends the watchers into a addrenalin pumped rage aswell and that cant be any good for society, but that is just my opinion, most rastas would agree to accept you however you are as long as u keep the fists of fury in the ring
