He's partially right, it's not like lifting metal caused you to lose all your fights but the fact that you're losing all your fights shows you need to change your priorities and put lifting on the back burner.

Don't listen to this idiot
First off it's amateur so don't get too stressed about it
Second lifting won't hurt you, but the moron I quoted had a bit of a point in priorities, if you're losing all your fights there is likely something wrong with your technique
If you do cardio make jumping rope your staple
>tfw you're too good looking to box
Lifting is a waste of time if you're a fighter.

it's not really an advantage to be strong in fighting though, it's just about technique and endurance

you wouldn't understand this unless you've actually boxed though

You're losing all your fights and you think the universe wants you to keep fighting? Maybe you just fucking suck at boxing and the universe wants you to stop boxing.
