I think Chinese Boxing is a somewhat outdated term. Older translations of art names and words in general translate some words into "boxing" that refer more to fighting in general (I think the current accepted translation is "fist"). Example: Xingyiquan = Form Mind Fist/Form Mind "Boxing". If you have a more in-depth question about this, ask Wilhelm, not me, since he's the resident expert on the language (I don't even speak it - I just know a few words).
