How do they score boxing?

In amateur boxing a point is scored every time the white part of the glove connects with the scoring area, the scoring area is the front of the head and body.\n\nProfessional boxing is scored round by round. Both boxers get 10 points per round. If they are put down, they lose a point, if they are deemed to have lost the round they lose another point. If the judge thinks the round is a tie then they both keep the 10 points. Most rounds go 10-9 to whoever had the best of that round.

Boxers are trained to exhale when throwing punches and that's the noise you're hearing. They do this to ensure that the moment they throw the punch they are "tension free". This adds speed and snap to the punch.

It's like chess, think three moves ahead.\n\nWhen "shadow boxing", or as you refer to "in the air", you need to train form and your muscles so they react on their own. This will allow you to follow your opponents movements, see where their point of balance is, as well as which sides they favor.\n\nIf your opponent punches with his front(left) arm the majority of the time, you step back, let him punch, block, and then follow with a quick kick to the side.\n\nControl them, make them do what you want them to do.

I´ve heard it in boxing, when the round expires and one of the boxers is really getting pounded, then the bell rings and he can rest for a couple minutes.  In the most dramatic of cases, he is already knocked out and the referee is counting and when its like 8... 9... the bell rings and so he is saved by the bell.

If you are serious about the sport, you should join a boxing gym. There are several there. If not, then might even see if they will let you post a flyer that says you are looking for someone to spar with.

The boxing ring is the space in which a boxing match occurs. A modern ring is square, set on a raised platform and bound around with four parallel rows of rope attached to posts at each corner of the ring. Currently professional contests have to have an international standard ring. However there are a number of different international standards.\n\nThe name ring is an atavism from when contests were fought in a roughly drawn circle on the ground, the name ring continued with the Jack Broughton rules (1743) specifying a small circle in the centre of the fight area where the boxers met at the start of each round. The first square ring was introduced by the Pugilistic Society in 1838, the ring was specified as 24 feet square and bound by two ropes
