Extra on jabbing
Types of jabs:
Normall jab
Tapper
 A jab to let the opponent put up his guard
 is more of a light punch, a stamina punch
Speed jab
 Fast jab but without a lot of force
 Can be used as the same reason as the tapper jab
Space maker
 To put space between yourself and the opponent
Power jab
 Just a very hard jab
The double jab
 A double jab
Tapping
 Light jabs after each other while the arm is almost extended
 Normally to measure distance
 or to make an opponening or create an oppening for a cross power punch
Body jab
 Jab to the body
The counter jab
 A counter jab


The bolo punch
the bolo punch's range of motion is like that of a hook combined with an uppercut.
As such, the punch should be thrown at 4–5 o'clock from an orthodox boxer's perspective.


Turtle style explained
The most part of the turtle style is mostly like the peek a boo but can also
be peeking through the arms or hands
If one gets punches it's easy to ''shell'' up
-If you can take body punches with around no problem
 this can be very useful, though he will score some points

Another guard style
The low normal guard
 Mostly with a lot of bobbing and weaving


Trapping against the ropes
You can also trap an opponenent against the ropes
although the corners are better for trapping
An opponent might be easier to get in to a corner after he's up against the ropes


Rope-a-dope
The rope-a-dope is performed by a boxer assuming a protected stance
(lying against the ropes, which allows much of the punch's energy to be absorbed by the ropes' elasticity rather than the boxer's body)
while allowing his opponent to hit him
The plan is to cause the opponent to "punch himself out" and make mistakes which the boxer can then exploit in a counter-attack.
Other:
rope-a-dope is used to describe strategies in which one party purposely puts itself in what appears to be a losing position,
attempting thereby to become the eventual victor


If you control the pace victory is closer

Power is speed times force


Differences between amateur, olympic and professional boxing
 Professional boxing:
 No headgear
 Can earn some to a lot of money
 In professional matches, the rounds are three minutes long and the bouts can last anywhere
 between four and twelve rounds
 6, 8, and 10 oz. gloves,depending on jurisdiction
 Some tactics considered fouls in amateur boxing are permitted in professional boxing
Amateur boxing:
 Headgear
 Earns almost no to no money
 In the amateurs, the bouts are either three or four rounds long
 in the four-round fights, the rounds are two minutes long
 In amateur boxing, the objective is to score points. You still can knock your opponent out,
 but you don’t receive a point for a knockdown
 10 oz. for competitions, specially designed to cushion the impact white area denotes striking surface
 No vaseline
 Standing Eight-Count Given to a boxer in difficulty
 After 3 eight-counts in a round or 4 in total, the bout is stopped
 The bout is stopped when there is much bleeding, or cuts, swelling around the eye
 There are no set rules for the size of a boxing ring in the pro ranks. However,
 amateur rings have a minimum size of 16 x 16 feet and a maximum of 20 x 20 feet.
Olympic boxing:
 Win by scoring points or a knock out
 The boxers are paired off at random for the Olympic Games,
 without regard to ranking they fight in a single-elimination tournament,
 with the winner advancing to the next round and the loser dropping out of the competition
 I don't know since when headgear had to be worn
 from ? to 2013-2014 headgear had to be worn
 Now there wil be a 10 point scoring system and fights without headgear
 Starting 2016
