    Cut out the weights you dont need them they will if anything make you stiff so you wont be able to move as effectively as you should.
    Go to a gym those days you lift, you will be in better shape boxing than you will lifting and you will look better.
    Having someone hit you in the stomach does work but do your crunches as well make sure when they are hitting you that they use a glove and that you flex the stomach.

    Different purpose, jump rope is part of the warming up routine.

    You have access to a gym right?

    Skip rope any ways, and IMO weights are not good for you, you actualy risk getting injured lifting, in addition after a while of lifting your arms get stiff once they are like that when you start to even shadow box you will feel them get that way, and you will notice you are having a hard time keeping your hands up as a result.
    shadow box for four rounds and see if this doesnt happen, if your biceps stiffen up just shadow boxing imagine what they will do in sparring I just dont recomend weight lifting at all.

    Oh
    WTF are you talking about? Your arms get stiff after weight training? This will only happen if you don't stretch regularly and follow a strict bodybuilding routine. True, you run the risk of getting injured but guess what? You run the same risk walking to the grocery store. Weight-lifting is perfectly fine. 30-45min 3 times a week really isn't that much. Just don't reject the rest of your conditioning and you'll be perfectly fine.

    I agree. I have tried weights multiple times. For the past 4 months I had been doing power lifts, only compound exercises, no machines, and I stretched. It didn't have any benefits, really, and eventually I was adding mass, which was affecting my stamina.

    I'm not against weights, they just don't really work for me.
