Boxing is a sport of speed and skill, as well as good reflexes. However, there is an element that can add strength and muscle mass to a boxers repetoire, and that's got to be done with weights.
With good form, and moderate weight resistance training, you can turn from an underachiever to a champion caliber athelete in no time.
