Well, professional boxing mght indicate 'sports boxing' in which stretching things out with brass knuckles and parrying sword attacks seems a lengthy familarity distance distance.

Anyways, I would side with the agressive parry manuever suggested above. Though with some weapons it seems very odd, though its on par with the side step feint, multi-jab combonation attack.
