Both foam and rubber are easy to install, which simplifies the process of setting up a spare bedroom or an area in the basement for the virtual boxing class and other sparring workouts. EVA foam mats usually have puzzle-style edging, which delivers a quick layout. Thin rubber rolls can cover a lot of space in a short amount of time.
Whether working alone at home or with a remote trainer at a facility, taking a virtual boxing class provides a high-quality workout with benefits for the cardiovascular system and for overall body strength and mobility.
If the class needs to make use of a heavy bag or a virtual boxing simulator machine game, these types of floorings will deliver the support required for various types of equipment. On the other hand, if the virtual boxing class requires setting up an actual ring, these styles are still ideal for the flooring.
What Are the Best Scuff Resistant Foam Floors for Boxing Shoes?
Thatch textured EVA foam is a strong choice for a virtual boxing class, as it can stand up to multiple types of shoes. It also has the padding needed to protect the lower body joints of the athletes, while giving a little cushion in case someone falls or gets knocked down.
Customer David in El Paso, Texas, created a standalone boxing ring at home with these mats, installing them in very little time.
This mat measures roughly 3/4 inches in thickness. An individual mat measures 1-by-1-meter (or about 3.28 feet across), allowing installers to cover a large space quickly. The mats use a thatch texture on both sides, providing scuff resistance for the boots or shoes of athletes.

The puzzle-style edges allow for an installation without glue, so the customer can assemble and disassemble the tiles in a hurry.
Customer Lance in Beaverton, Ore., says the ability to lay out a DIY boxing ring in just a few minutes at home and disassemble it later is a huge advantage of this model of tile.

These feature a no-burn tatami surface texture, which protects the skin when the athlete falls down or slides across the 1.25-inch thick mats. Each mat measures 1-by-1-meter in size.
Customer Lizette in Concord, Calif., uses these mats for boxing, kickboxing, jiu-jitsu, and krav maga workouts.

Each puzzle edge mat has a no-skin-burn tatami texture that measures about 1-by-1 meters for a fast layout.
Customer Rob installed these mats in Kalispell, Mont., for both boxing and martial arts activities, as they work well for stand-up workouts.
Does Rubber Work for Boxing Practice Flooring?
Using a rubber roll as the flooring for a virtual boxing class works extremely well too, as rubber yields an excellent footing for the boxers with maximum durability and a little bit of cushioning. Rolls of rubber are easy to install, creating an area for workouts in a short amount of time.
