=== Boxing and offense strategies ===
=== Boxing and offense strategies ===
Right-handed boxers usually fight from an orthodox stance. This means putting the left foot slightly ahead of the right with both feet spread apart and the weight of the body evenly distributed on both. This position enables the boxer to move quickly in any direction. The left arm is partly extended to the front. The right arm is held close to the body to guard the [[stomach]] and [[jaw]]. Left-handed boxers stand with the right foot and right arm forward.

The chief points of attack are the tip of the jaw, the spot just below the [[ear]], and the midsection of the body. A solid punch delivered to one of these points often results in a knockout.
