Hey, ive been a boxer for 3 years and have always had trouble with cardio. I have a good build and have worked a solid technique but cant last. this is do to the fact that i have had a knee problem which prevents me from doing exercises which have have high impact on the legs. ie: running, biking, etc.... does anyone know of anyworkouts that will build cardio but focus on the upper body?

You can do Pushup Cardio, You can get a Baby Trampoline. You can do the Butterfly stroke while swimming laps. You can use an Arm Bike etc etc.
