Radar reference

What the style axes mean.

These are the eight labels used across the diagnostic, profile, and comparison radar charts. Higher does not mean better. It means that habit shows more strongly in the style shape.

Plain-English radar guide

8-axis boxing style glossary

Use this as the single reference point when a radar chart mentions range, pressure, volume, timing, starting phases, countering, defensive reset, or ring position.

Outboxer

How much the boxer prefers to work at longer range.

Higher usually means
More jabs, distance control, and movement before trading.
Lower usually means
More comfort in mid-range or close-range exchanges.

Example habit: Uses the jab and feet to make the opponent restart.

Pressure

How much the boxer tries to move opponents backward or hold ground.

Higher usually means
Steps in, takes space, and makes the opponent work under stress.
Lower usually means
Lets space open up more often and may prefer to draw attacks first.

Example habit: Walks the opponent toward the ropes behind a simple guard.

Volume

How often the boxer builds attacks with repeated punches.

Higher usually means
More combinations, touches, and second or third scoring phases.
Lower usually means
More single-shot selection and longer pauses between attacks.

Example habit: Throws a jab-cross-hook, then resets quickly enough to go again.

Sniper

How much the boxer relies on selected, high-quality shots.

Higher usually means
Waits for cleaner targets and values timing over constant output.
Lower usually means
Uses activity, pressure, or position more than perfect timing.

Example habit: Makes a small feint, waits for the guard to move, then fires one clean shot.

Starter

How often the boxer initiates exchanges.

Higher usually means
Starts first with jabs, feints, entries, or pressure steps.
Lower usually means
Often waits for the opponent to show a cue before acting.

Example habit: Touches with the jab first so the next punch has a job.

Counter

How much the boxer waits, reads, and answers.

Higher usually means
Invites mistakes, defends first, then returns fire.
Lower usually means
Prefers to lead the exchange or keep the opponent busy first.

Example habit: Catches the jab and immediately answers with a right hand.

Defence

How much the boxer uses guard, head movement, exits, or control to reduce clean shots.

Higher usually means
More reliable protection, resets, and ways to leave danger safely.
Lower usually means
More risk in exchanges or more reliance on offence as protection.

Example habit: Blocks, rolls, or steps off before trying to score again.

Ring control

How well the boxer controls where the fight happens in the ring.

Higher usually means
Uses pivots, exits, cut-offs, and rope position on purpose.
Lower usually means
Lets position drift more and may solve problems mostly with punches.

Example habit: Steps around after scoring so the opponent has to turn before answering.
