Boxing 101 Footwork - Paperback

by Alberto Robles (Author)

Your hands can only work as well as your feet allow-stop wasting energy, crossing your feet, or retreating without a plan.

Whether you're a beginner building your foundation or an intermediate boxer tired of losing balance under pressure, Boxing 101: Footwork gives you a complete, drill-based system to move with purpose, control distance, and stay dangerous in every exchange. You'll learn to stop bouncing without reason, eliminate common stance mistakes, and turn your footwork into a reliable weapon for both offense and defense.

Inside this practical guide, you'll master the mechanics that separate controlled fighters from reckless ones:

• Build a stable, mobile stance that keeps you balanced while punching, defending, and changing direction.
• Move forward, backward, and laterally without narrowing your base or crossing your feet.
• Create attacking angles with pivots, shifts, and step-around footwork that opens up combinations.
• Enter range and exit safely using structured entry drills and defensive resets.
• Control the ring by cutting off opponents, escaping the ropes, and owning the center.
• Apply footwork in sparring with a complete six-week development program and solo, partner, and bag drills.

Build your footwork from the ground up.
