A deception move to trick a boxer's opponent into thinking a certain punch is about to be thrown or a certain course of action is about to occur. It is an essential skill for a boxer as without it, his/her opponent will quickly be able to adapt to their offensive game. Using a feint to get into a position to attack will make it less likely to be hit on the way in. When both boxers do this simultaneously leads to "feinting each other into knots", the situation where two boxers stand across from one another and trick each other into indecision - neither boxer throws as they are reacting to feints.
