    It's a neck harness, it's used to strengthen the neck muscles which helps when taking punches.

    I haven't heard of many people wearing weighted vests while training. It'll certainly make you work harder so should help with your stamina, depends what you're aiming for. I heard Ali used to wear weights low next to his feet sometimes to get extra spring, but it wasn't anywhere near 60lbs though.
