WARNING: Boxing is a dangerous sport. It can cause harm, serious injury and even death to either you or your opponent. I, Justin Salvato, will not be responsible if you, your training partner or anyone else around you get hurt doing any of the exercises, activities, and/or drills displayed on this website. And if you choose to participate in a sparring session, please do so in a gym under the supervision of a professional trainer.
Footwork is essential to every boxer. It is needed whether you're attacking, defending, or counter-attacking. Good footwork gives you balance which in turn gives you power and the ability to retreat when needed.
Keeps these things in mind while moving around the ring.
Do not take big steps. Keep them short.
Do not lunge at your opponent unless you are certain you can land an attack; his hands are down and is a bit dazed.
