I wouldnt mind but the boxing "techniques", to be generous in description, are bad at best.

So here is a clip of a website showing actual boxing techniques, footwork and so on

http://www.myboxingcoach.com/... its very good

So, before putting up your anti-boxing move, have a look here and see if you are REALLY training against a boxer.......... not some guy pretending to be

Oh, and how do you make this a sticky???

Since this thread is active again. I posted WC vids against Karate. The way the WC guys used their guard would be the best way I can see, provided you knew you were in a fight. If he is close enough to hook you your getting hooked more than likely. But, that WC guard barehanded, would give me great difficulties using what I used in the ring. With gloves, I could deal with it much better. Well, maybe not if it was UFC gloves.

That's a good guard barehanded. Other arts may be able to exploit it better than I could have. If I used other things I could do, I have different options. But strictly boxing, I'm not good enough to get around it. Id make a hit for every 10+ I get. And walking into walls would take me out soon enough. Other boxers may do much better.
