First off, you dont need to bulk up your at a good weight for boxing anyways, why would you want to throw away a reach advantage? but whatever. If you want to bulk cleanly (I assume this means your cardio wont be affected greatly as well as bodyfat) then you dont want to bulk up real fast. When your muscles grow you dont get as many capillaries in them right off the bat, meaning theyll fatigue faster and suck up oxygen tiring you out in the ring. You'll have to keep up with your cardio doing for example at least 2 or 3 days of conditioning or distance work. Anaerobic conditioning is best because it doesnt catabolize muscle your trying to build. Work out just under the "hypertrophy zone" with 7 down to 4 reps so the muscle isnt just big its strong too and eat alot. Full body routines and squat heavy, your legs are very much a large part of your punching power. Dont just focus on mirror muscles work everything equally to prevent a muscle imbalance.
I had the best results with the whey protein when I had 1 shake 1 hour before Id hit the weights, 1 shake right before and 1 shake right after, sometimes first thing in the morning if I couldnt get any oatmeal Id use the powder again as a replacement. I gained 12lbs (about 8-10lbs muscle) in 2 months and my cardio was about the same. That was not when I was boxing though so it will likely take you longer, probably 6-8 months but thats good because you'll build up the # of capillaries in your new muscles so you wont be useless :-P
I didnt take that much time to explain it really good but I gotta run
