Hey, im new to this forum. Love mma, been obsessed with it for about six month.

I started boxing about a month and a half ago, and my contract ends in about 4 and a half months. I want to join some mma classes after my boxing has ended (nothing wrong with it, i just figured it'd be good to know how to throw a punch before jumping into mma).

Since my boxing class is only once a week, for an hour-hour and a half. Ive been running 3 miles every other day...doing jump rope for 5 min before boxing, along with push ups, shadow boxing, sit ups, then box for about 20 min on my punching bag.

My question is, what should i do now to help get me prepare for mma, like weight lifting, change my diet, box less, box more, any respose is appreciated.

thanks
