Do you *really* need to declare "Boxers" twice ? Once is enough.
Multiple declaration on one line is syntactitally correct (oops... more than
my English I presume), but unfair for comments :

typedef union
{
  short left; /* smart functional comment for 'left' */
  short right; /* smart functional comment for 'right' */
} Boxers;

>typedef union Foo
