The best way to get into fighting is to join a gym. There are some people who have been successful training on their own but that is an exception to the rule. If you are at a gym you should have some quality sparring partners there, coaches to correct problems and set out a conditioning plan for you and the trainer will probably know a few promoters when he thinks you are ready to start fighting.

Most sanctioning bodies have an age requirement of 18 to fight, but 16 is a great age to start training because you'll have two years under your belt by the time you are old enough to fight.
