Taiji Tuishou and Taiji Sanshou are auxiliary forms of movement Taijiquan, and the practice of their transformation into competitive sports has theoretical de-fects. In the long term technical practicing of Taijiquan moves, there is a lack of practical experiences in boxing functions, hence the players are lacking in technical and mental preparations for participating in Taiji Sanshou prac-ticing and other forms of boxing. From the perspective of current situation, the study of the theories and practice of Taijiquan techniques should be strengthened; the practice of various offensive and defensive boxing fights should be organized and participated in cautiously. Blindly and overly promoting and exaggerating the practical boxing func-tions of Taijiquan are reasonless.
