Grandmaster Wong covers the Boxer's hands and simultaneously strike him with a leopard punch

The tactic of “close and srrike” is very effective in countering a Boxer. When a Boxer attacks you with jabs or crosses, close his hands with your Tiger-Claw and strike himwith your Leopard Punch. It is very important you have closed him thoroughly so that he cannot attack you while you strike him, otherwise you will be exposed to his fast punches. If he bounces away, cover the gap and close and strike him. Our wider stance enables us to easily cover the space of a Boxer’s bouncing.
