What is a "guard"?
In combat sports like boxing and fencing, a guard is the defensive position an athlete uses to protect themselves while staying ready to attack. This stance involves careful placement of the body, hands, or weapon to block or avoid strikes from an opponent. A strong guard not only provides protection but also allows the athlete to stay balanced and prepared to counterattack quickly. It is a fundamental skill that combines defense with the ability to stay active and respond effectively during a match.
Example
The boxer lowered his guard momentarily, leaving an opening for a counterpunch.
