    Robinson, Duran, Tyson, and floyd are pretty amazing.

    I love jumping rope.

    So do I. Seeing that video made me go find my old jump rope and skip for a few minutes. Roy Jones was pretty impressive too.

    Great video, really enjoyed it. Thanks a lot for sharing.

    Many of the top fighters are skipping rope very very well. I have started skipping the rope a while ago and now I see I have long way to walk lol

    Jump rope is one of the best Excercisee you can do ..Heard 10 minutes of rope is the equivalent to running 3 miles

    I think the old timers in general look better than the vast majority of clunky non-rhythm guys with our laughable modern training methods.

    I tried to do some of Robinson's kicks today, and maybe because I am getting old I was having a time with it.

    I can't do Duran's crouching thing at all, but otherwise I can emulate a lot of the tricks.

    (last 15 seconds of this is the best, I get one legged double unders. This is obviously from a while ago)

    A thread about Floyd skipping rope. This has to be a new low.
