These guys have two of the best physiques I've ever seen in a boxing ring, Eubank was perfectly sculptured and so muscular, and Roy Jones had dense muscle tissue.
Yet ****ing neither of them Ever used weights with the exception of Roy Jones preparing for the Ruiz fight to bulk up, that's apparently the first and only time that Jones ever used weights was for the Ruiz fight.
Here were their routines:
Chris Eubank's routine-
(Eubank typed this out himself on his website)
First I started my stretching, then
3 rounds of shadow boxing,
6 rounds of heavy bag work,
3 rounds of speed ball,
Skipping between 20 to 30 minutes non-stop, no break straight through.
50 sit-ups, not crunches proper sit-ups.
Stretching.
Finish with 20 hits in the stomach with a medicine ball.
That was generally the routine.
If I was sparring it was the same routine but without the bag work.
For me, boxing is about learning how to box, it is not about pushing weights. I didn't get into weights, I did push-ups but very rarely.
I ran 6-8 miles every morning, sometimes 8-10 miles and sometimes twice a day on Bodmin Moor.

Roy Jones' routine-
(this is from a guy who watched Jones in the gym and talked with him)
warm up - push ups, twists, stretch, bouncing around etc
shadow boxing 4x4
heavy bag 4x4
speed bag 16 mins
floor to ceiling 16 mins
25mins skipping
1200 situps
roy does not use weights and he has 30 sec not 1 min breaks. he does leg weights after his morning run.

WTF is up with that? Those guys had awesome upper bodies, how could they not use weights??
