Boxing Glossary · Training
Controlled practice boxing between two fighters wearing protective gear. Sparring allows boxers to practice technique, timing, and strategy in a realistic but safer environment. Intensity is controlled and both partners focus on learning rather than winning.
Coaches use this word as practical shorthand. Learn the meaning here, then connect it to the relevant training or class context in the Learn hub.
If the term comes up in class and you are unsure how it applies to you, ask a coach before trying to force it into sparring or pad work.
