Floyd Mayweather's jump rope training secrets revealed

Floyd Mayweather wasn't great just because of his reflexes or his defense. So was it for the thousands of details repeated in training until they came back natural. And one of those secrets was something as simple as jumping rope. There worked rhythm, coordination, balance, leg speed and body control. All that afterwards was seen from the top of the ring. His way of getting in and out of the distance changing pace, always standing well and failing the opponent did not appear by chance. It was built every day. That's why when you see Floyd jump rope, you're not just watching a warm-up. You're watching one of the best boxers in history perfecting the foundation of his style. Short, precise and clean moves. Nothing much. Nothing is too much. Mayweather understood the defense don't start when you get hit. Starts way earlier, in discipline, in repetition and in mastering your own body. That was part of what made him an almost untouchable fighter. All rights belong to their respective authors. DM for credit or request removal.
