Starting boxing, overweight, should I eat to maintain or lose weight?

I just started boxing conditioning, and I'm 5'5" 180lbs. I feel like I could do better if I was lighter, but am unsure if it would impact my training. Any ideas?

Hey man!! Hope you're keeping up with the boxing!! At 5'5, I don't think you would want to be in the light heavyweight class. How's it been going? I'm gonna add you
