    umm depends on how you feel.
    i would have to disagree it would matter if he went boxing training with sore muscles and dead legs.
    The most important aspect if your a fighter is BOXING TRAINING conditioning is an important second

    Agreed. My answer is yes, take the weekend off. You do conditioning for boxing. It is important that you feel rested going into your first day back. Good luck

    You do coniditoning/strength training to complement your boxing. They should never be undertaken if they will affect your priority which is your boxing.

    The words of the wisdomous MR Small so take notice.

    You're outa your mind. This is about the time I'd be planning a night of alcoholic debauchery complete with a lot of vomiting, near-death experiences. :dead

    That way when you get to the gym you feel like you deserve the pain you're putting yourself through :deal
