That's what I thought. Zero ability to articulate actual boxing talk. You are an NPC regurgitating mindless old school boxing talking points.

The ability to jump rope does not translate to boxing footwork in anywhere close to a 1:1 ratio. It isn't even 10:1. There's no correlation between the two. What is the far more likely case is that the best boxers also make good/great rope jumpers. Not the other way around.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3-q...nel=SecondsOut this guy here has out of this world jump rope skills, more impressive than Mayweather. Yet, he was nothing more than an above average fighter, and his movement/footwork didn't come even close to reflecting his ability to jump rope.

You don't know chit about boxing. It's OK. Chang is here to educate.

they jump rope for the reason they fkn chop wood or flip tires.

Does chopping wood and flipping tire translate to one's boxing skills? I thought so.

They're all just exercises to help you get into fighting condition, that's it.

Sorry if I repeat other posters, didn’t read all responses, but jump rope is probably just a tradition, heavily ingrained into coaches minds. There is nothing that would translate into actual dance in the ring. No footwork, no stamina or speed, nothing. Same thing about speed bag, another one o those stupid things that does nothing.

Why MMA for 600k when you can box for 50 million?

everyday im reminded how lost some of you are. how many boxers are actually getting 50m? hint: it's a tiny minority. mma is far superior than boxing in terms of entertainment and skill

Combat sports people have the best motivation to get fit.

If you dont, you get killed.

They are there to reinforce rhythm, being light on your feet, and building cardio/shoulder stamina.

Ultimately it is just a warmup/workout that is really ideal for the sport, you are developing cardio, lightness on the feet, endurance in the shoulders. You can say oh, it's a waste of time but to get light on your feet you have to spend a lot of time being light on your feet, doing plyos etc. and yeah mixing in shadowboxing is probably more ideal.
Y'all are just splitting hairs though.

It doesn't require a trainer or partner working with you which is why it is favored by so many combat sports as a way to get in extra work outside of the gym. And how folks get so good at it, a lot of time I spend 15 min first thing in morning jumping rope, someone in fight camp is getting a lot of hours in on it.

It's really not hard at all. I boxed for years in my youth and I could comfortably skip for 30 minutes and keep my HR around 120BPM.

It's only really difficult initially because you're inefficient and waste loads of energy.

Lol you're right it's probably more related to old school mentality as opposed to it's specific carryover to boxing specific movements etc. The same way some coaches feel you need to run in order to "condition the legs" lol.

It's obviously for footwork and cardio. Good footwork equates to maneuverability.

for footwork you train foot work, specific steps and combos. Get the bag swinging and move around, those kind of things. Jumping over the string does not translate into boxing. It is a tradition, more than anything.
