You do not merely cover a Boxer but you must cover him completely so that he cannot strike you

Two other typical attacks of a Boxer besides jabs and crosses, are hooks and undercuts. You may let the hook pass and then cover it, quite like handling a jab, if the hook is fast or of a small arc. If it is of a huge arc, which gives you more time, you may intercept and strike.

Do not block an undercut, which is usually powerful. Do so is meeting force with force, besides placing you in an unfavorable position. A good counter is to "thread" it along its momentum and dislocate the attackers elbow or fell him onto the ground, using the pattern "White Ape Holds Branch".

A Boxer does not kick, but if be always ready that he may. Just move back a small step and strike his kicking leg. You may then follow up by covering him and striking him, or felling him onto the ground.
