    Video: Boxers Past and Present Skipping Rope

    Its weird when watching Rocky Marciano skip rope, this dude was a flat foot fighter, yet he skipped rope with light feet, I never would have thought he would skip rope like that.

    Rocky Marciano was a small heavyweight; therefore not as much mass to move around. In combination with his strong legs.

        I love how Tyson does the rope dude is short and stocky but he barely lifts his feet and can throw the rope so fast, dude is a beast with the rope.

            Roy looked funny doing it he had some super skinny legs too those leggings really showed how skinny his legs were.

            Its weird how Henry Armstrong and Manny Pacquiao both skip rope the same exact way, and especially how early days Pacquiao used to get compared to a similar fighting style as Armstrong and Pryor.

            Greb was doing that side dance well, and Jack Dempsey was doing The Jerk dance lol before his time

                  It's called efficiency. When you can stalk and trap opponents you don't need to burning up energy bouncing on the balls of your feet.
