Chinese Boxing refers to kung fu, internal, external and mixed. Boxing in this sense doesnt mean the same as competetive or western boxing.

Chinese Boxers are chinese martial artists. If we are talking about the traditional term.

Actually, Chinese boxing was ORIGINALLY highly competitive.

It is only now that Chinese boxing has fallen into it's less-useful, unrealistic, hoobie-joobie-magic form.

ha ha ha - you misunderstood what i was trying to say. Chinese boxing is not the western boxing or sport competition boxing that wee see today.

maybe that was a better way of putting it
