The physical characteristics of Boxers are also the ones who determine the way they fight. So their physical "qualifications" must be combined with mental and intellectual gifts that will allow them to make the most of them. Also the coach should apply such training to combine all this in an effective way for the boxer to fight.

Boxer tall in proportion to the weight category in which he competes.

The advantage that its long limbs give it is an important weapon. His hands are very close to his target, while on the contrary his head and body are much farther than his shortest opponent. The big stride helps him to immediately and with a little energy to move away in defense and to attack in the counterattack. It seeks to be located mainly in the distant and middle distance  and uses straights in a larger proportion than hooks and uppercut. The special features that must complement its height are the timing that performs the beats and their good mark as well as the correct and rythmic movement inside the ring so that it is as little as possible in corners and ropes.

 

Boxer short in proportion to the weight category in which he competes.

The great advantage of the "short" boxer is his muscular strength. It is more compact in proportion to its height and has a low center of gravity. So his blows, although shorter than the taller opponent, are stronger. His tight muscular body also helps in enduring the blows. He seeks to be mainly in the short and medium distance where with his main weapon the hooks and the uppercuts he puts in a disadvantaged position the opponent boxer. The short boxer must be characterized by great determination and courage to be constantly close to the opponent. Also perform good defenses with the waist and foot movement so that it does not wear out during the race from the blows.
