    What is weight lifting in boxing about then?

    If you are doing something, you should do it for a reason. Just like if you're doing weights or resistance training it should be geared towards what you want to be doing in the ring - You want to be faster, stronger and more explosive.

    If you're moving up in weight is the only reason you would do weights to bulk up. Otherwise you shouldn't want to be bulky for the sake of it..it should be functional weight.

    Good example - Alex Ariza with Manny Pac..hitting tyres with sledge hammer/medicine balls. Good for explosive power.

    Bad example - Kerry Kayes with Ricky Hatton. Makes Ricky do lateral raises and reverse flyes using a slow tempo. No functionality in what he is doing at all.

    Camp Ricky, if you need a trainer call me
    Kery Kayes helped Hatton alot with his weight.Hatton was alot better at making the weight with Kayes in his corner look at the weighing against Manny Hatton looked shocking.

    He may have helped him with losing body fat through cardio - Or maybe the weights helped him burn the extra calories he might have retained when training with Floyd Sr...

    But fact remains, Kayes knows fuck all about training a boxer functionally with weights.
