    i doubt he does
    mostly push ups
    but you can shadow box with light weights to get ripped
    just do bodyweight exercises like pullups and chinups better for boxers
    i did weights and i got stronger but lost some flexibility
    make sure your stretch regularly if u are gonna do weights

    I'm new here but what is it about the weight training stuff that everyone is "loling" about? Is it because you guys think boxers should not build strength or is it the terrible advice given on here? I'm being completely serious too... I feel like I'm missing something here:think

    It's the theory that boxers shold only use light weights which is a load of ****. And that heavy weights will definately make you slow.

    Really, weights are good, so long as you're not 'bodybuilding' and your weights/strength training does not make you sacrifice technical training.

    He does preacher curls 4 x 10, forearm curls 4 x10, donkey calve raises 3 x 20. If he has time I heard he incorporates tricep extensions also. Boxers sometimes neglect the importance of the third tricep head.:D
