The Boxing Thread

Until boxing is regulated the top boxers will continue to do whatever they want

Arreloa has been on the downside ever since he got starched by Vitali years ago.

Tyson fury failed a drug test. He may be stripped of his titles, and Anthony Joshua Vs Wladimir Klitchko may be the next big heavyweight fight.

Not a boxer but I’ve been jump roping for exercise recently. I usually feel foot pain on the balls of my feet after jumping around 100 repitions. I jump on concrete and have shoes with good cushioning. Should I quit jumping rope, try at jumping at a gym, or just take a break to heal my feet and come back?

how do you fail a drug test in 2016…wow

Look at the world of MMA…

Dude got too excited and the opposing trainer wasn’t having it.

He should be glad he didn’t get KO’d by the trainer. He landed some clean shots.

How high do you jump? When you get good at skipping your feet should barely even leave the ground. A lot depends on your technique. If you jump with your feet together you use up more energy than if you were to jump rope as if you are just running in place. It definitely helps the joints if you do it on a softer surface than concrete, but it shouldn’t be hurting you badly enough to the point that’s it’s any more uncomfortable than just doing some regular exercise. 100 reps is probably roughly 3 minutes of jumping for me.

lmfao how you gonna let the trainer put hands on you??

Shiiet, if my trainer doesn’t have hands that would be like a fat person as a personal trainer.

Thanks for the insight, I’ll give it a go next week.

P.S. @LilBarlog The manga is called Rookies, it’s about a baseball team of delinquents.

It was for cocaine and yeah he’s an admitted headcase and fuck up.

Yeah once your technique improves you’ll be doing all kinds of crazy stuff(If you aren’t already) to make the workout tougher. I can do double-unders, triple-unders, crosses, double-under crosses, and I can do breaks. With jump rope the fun thing is that you don’t have to actually have the rope in your hand to practice. How you normally run in place is the exact same as when you are skipping rope, and it’s the same for the other tricks. Run in place faster, the rope should move faster. It’s just timing and knowing when to load up on your jump for some of the more advanced tricks like doubles, and double-under crosses.

you must not watch enough mma.

You sure this nigga don’t hang out with Jon Jones?

??? no pac discussion?

I saw it. Vargez should of just ran the whole fight. I didn’t get why he just tried to wait for an opening. He was throwing the same number of punches (maybe a bit more) than Pac’s last opponent 2 fights ago… he should of just clinched to shift the positioning, hit once and run through out the whole round. Why bother boxing when you don’t need to? Was that tactic only allowed when Pac was there during May 2015?

we all streamed it on discord lol

why are u so chafed man wtf
