Huh? You must have some idea of what you want to look like. Why don't you start there.

Who cares how much you weigh. Its more more about the muscle to fat ratio and if you're happy with what you see in the mirror. Not the number on the scale.

Also, if you get serious about this sport you're never going to be content with the results you have. You're always going to strive to be better. So asking us how much you need to work on is kind of irrelevant. Only you can decide that

Some guy at the gym told me this quote and I kind of like it

"As long as you're disappointed, no one else will be"

Weight loss is not weight maintenance, many dieters fail to maintain their weight loss and oftentime regain what they lost. Many of these same dieters falsely believe that exercise alone contributes to weight loss. Although a well-planned exercise can burn calories, without a sensible diet plan, millions of fat, overweight and obese people are doomed to failure.

I'll go with 180 because of the hieght i'd guess between 18 to 20 % bf

Hard to juge since we can't see your legs. Some people have large legs compared to their upper body.

If your legs are proportional to your upper body, I'd guess you're about 170 with 15-20% body fat.
