This is another form of shadow boxing! You move with an opponent and react and "think" about counters. Non contact must be a mma phrase because its NOT a boxing expression. This is shadowing with a partner as opposed to a mirror or moving in a ring alone!! Ray.

Lol @ some of the simple minded people in this thread. I bet you they also think the exercise "juggling" the balls is ****** too.
But let it be Donaire doing them then it would be GENIUS.

Reaction exercise. I did this all the time with my team when I competed. Our coach would have us do this for 3 rounds each and then full contact right after. Has no one ever competed or been to other gyms that did this? It's not rare at all. I'm wondering how man people here have actually ever boxed in their lives.Comment

It's not sparring, it's working on movement and reactions. Fighters don't just work on punching, they work on their movement, angles to set up shots, etc...be it shadow boxing, rope exercises or this, it's all part of training.
You don't create a gameplan from simple training drills, you simply work on certain angles and punch set-up.Comment

Of course he can throw a jab, nobody said he couldn't, what matters is what he does in real fights and he has the habit of only using his right hand as a range finder.Comment
