Eight-pole boxing is a kind of short boxing, and its movements generally pursue a strong, unpretentious and fast style. In attack and defense technology, it is important to cut an inch and take an inch, and to fight hard and open hard. It really has the characteristics of being beaten, helped, squeezed, leaned, collapsed and shaken.
Eight-pole boxing exerts its power on the heel, walks around the waist and runs through the fingertips, so it is extremely explosive, full of the characteristics of martial arts, and has the trend of "shaking the arm and knocking the foot, shaking Kyushu".
