Actually depends on your age and all countries follow the weight classes set by AIBA, not just the UK. Some of the weights are as follows:

For Senior and Junior (U-19) boxers there shall be 11 weight classes:

48 kg, 51 kg, 54 kg, 57 kg, 60 kg, 64 kg, 69 kg, 75 kg, 81 kg, 91 kg, and 91+ kg.

For Female and Cadet (15-16 year olds) boxers there shall be 13 weight classes:
46 kgs, 48 kgs, 50 kgs, 52 kgs, 54 kgs, 57 kgs, 60 kgs, 63 kgs, 66 kgs, 70 kgs, 75 kgs, 80 kgs and 86 kgs.
