    I did all the bags and mitts and drills for months…but when I finally started sparring-it was whole new thing (almost)- controlling pace, space/range, footwork- creating angles, positionally-advantageous angles, breathing, closing range, defending and countering, re-adjusting constantly according to the offense , clinching/grappling/wrangling-untangling, posturing-defensive/offensive, psychological conditioning- yes-conditioning oneself to getting hit, takings feeling like you’re losing and mentally adjusting to it quickly, developing sportsmanship, etc… sparring offered a whole bunch of important lessons… (I’ve documented some of my progress in sparring training with coach-see for yourself)

Fortunately, a close friend of his wanted revenge, so he tried to decapitate me in the next round... but my defense was good. We ended (three of us) as good friends.

    Sparring is superrrrrr fun. Me and the buddies love practicing and talking on what we can work on collectively. We and our coaches always agree on what we should work on in that session whether is work up close or distance and etc. There is absolutely no ill intention because we gotta take care of each other which a lot of egotistical kids dont get that sparring is to better both of us so we both come out as winners. Every boxer should spar or light spar its extremely essential in my opinion.

    Good point for experienced partner. The alternative for me would be choose someone you already know and agree to some light sparring, maybe even agree to slow down your punches. That way you can get used to being hit, and used to dodging actual punches, without getting hurt/being put off.

    All great tips! To me, #3 (sparring partner) is the most relevant. We’ve had some sparring sessions at our gym that have gone sideways because of the first time/novice sparring partners have little control and don’t know how to pull their punches. This is especially troubling when the novice sparring partner is larger and can strike with more force. As the video suggests, it’s best to work with an experienced sparring partner (or even your trainer, if they’re up for it or able) that can help you get comfortable in the ring (breathing, movement, rhythm, etc) and work with you to improve your boxing skills. Thanks for sharing this, Tony!

    when I spar I'm going to do it with my friend who's trained in martial arts for years and is now training in jiu jitsu, he said anytime I could spar with him so he could help also teach me good technique, just like you're doing on this great channel.

    Hey Tony!! I've got a bit of a sparring dilemma but first let me say I've really been enjoying your videos man! Thanks for putting so much good content out there. I'm 48 and I've been training for 6 years. Got into it just to get fit and feel in love with the art of boxing, now the only way to get better at that art is to do sparring, but I'm running into an internal conflict. In my professional life, I'm a trauma therapist - I help people heal from trauma, and I'm finding myself, in the little bit of sparring I've done, not able to fully commit out of fear of causing harm. I'm not too worried about getting hurt myself - I'm a 245 pound heavyweight with pretty good technique at this point - but I can feel how there's an internal switch I'm not letting myself flip because I have a sense that if I do, I could accidentally end up hurting someone pretty badly. Just curious if you have any thoughts on this.

    Hello, good morning sir. I myself am a physician, and I had some problems trying to hurt another person, having helped many before. However, one thing that kept me going was that I am a man, and that I need to be able to protect myself and my family. Either physically, emotionally, or financially. And thus I need to get stronger, which was the reason I went into boxing in the first place. And for the opponent, he's also a guy (I won't fight women), and he also needs to protect himself and his family. And thus, like a lion with his cub, I let go of my fear and I went ahead to spar. Hope that helps.
