bump advice pls and some tips.... to make better

My advice to you is, to quit sparring and go back to shadowboxing, heavybag work and padwork. If you focus more on those three for a good 4-6 months, I can guarantee you, you'll be much better next time you step inside those ropes.

**Oh, and getting a trainer that actually trains you the right way would help too(not just a fighter who used to be a good fighter, you don't need a former bad@ss, you need a good teacher!)**

No one is ever 100% ready for sparring, but, you're clearly not ready for sparring, and where you're at right now, continuing to spar and not work on proper punching mechanics and the proper way of defending, you'll just be stuck at that level.

Here's an analogy, if a teacher started teaching you calculus with hardly any training in basic arithmetic, how hard do you think it will be to pick up calculus ?

i do 3 rounds of bag 1rd all jab 2nd right 3rd combination

shadow also 3rds jab 1.2 upper, hooks bob weave,

i been boxing 7 months now and that is all they tell me to do... and mits basically my mits pattern since i started is still the same till now. I dunno why they dont change it.... if u can share additional drills and wat to do stuff it would be great i will try incorporate those. :)

Repetition is key in boxing. But, d*mn, 7 months of the same ole routine, can be downright boring, and simply take the fun out of it.

Changing routines should not be for the sole purpose of making it fun, but, it has to stick within the framework.


The thing is, it's the trainer's responsibility to gauge your boxing aptitude. Why is the student not showing any progress(Is the student just lazy, is it the trainer's training method(s))

More than likely, it is the trainer!!

this the only gym near me so i dont have any choice i guess... the other gym is only for pros. anyways wheres cuatemoc guys? he gave some goods hints back then and some other experienced guys here too.

This is total BS. You can improve your moves and still get in some sparring to practice and apply what you are learning as you go along. You sparring won't impede your learning process it will just improve it. What better way to fix your flaws than learn new things and apply in a combat situation. My advice to you is this, and also not to take any advice from this LATINONOB guy.

But the guy on the vid is clearly not!! He needs to go back to the drawing board, sharpen things up, and then step in the f**kin' ring!!

Give him between 6-9 months of a heavy dose of legit training, and he'll look way different next time he steps in-between those ropes!!

My general rule is, I don't let novices step in the ring period!! Once a fighter is able to show me that he can be fluid with his combinations, his eyes start to sharpen with the pad-work, then it's time for sparring!!

To Urbano fan,

Here's a great thread I found, the thread starter did a great job of piecing it together step-by-step http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=318739&nojs=1#goto_threadtools

i dont know about the whole dont take any advice from this latin guy thing but the rest of its pretty sound. sparring can allways be helpful weather your just starting or 10 years into it. if your training to fight people why not train by fighting people if you have 2 people that both realize that by sparring with the other person they are improving their skills then their should be no problem, problems only occur when you have a di*khead trainer throwing some newb in with some guy thats only looking to beat people up...and id imagine that would be the fault of the trainer. I see no reason to wait 6 months or more before your willing to let some one spar i mean unless of course your one of those dirty a holes that dont train any one in any thing other then how to do sit ups push ups and jump rope and are only in this to make money you greedy piece's of sh*t

why the fck did he get banned??

he gets banned alot

If this guy agrees with me than I retract everything I just said.

You're missing the boat, id*ot. I have a question for you, if you were teaching someone how to ride a bicycle, how would you know when to take the training wheels off ?

Another question, would you take the training wheels off at the same time you're still teaching them how to ride a bike ?

Sparring helps students work on reaction, timing and distance. Students do not spar until they are familiar with the basic stances, blocks and strikes .

** Urbanofan in his own sparring vid clearly shows that he's not familiar with the basic stances, blocks and strikes. I did not pick up one thing that he actually did correctly!**

What's up with the analogies comparing boxing to other stuff that it has nothing to with? And if you want to go with the that, then at some point you have to take off the training wheels, not knowing if the kid is going to bust his ass or not. You have to throw him out there with no training wheels and find out if he's got it. With boxing you will always be learning. So what are you going to do, wait until you are perfect to spar? You need to spar to better develop your distance and timing. Also there's a way of getting your point across without being a dick to the guy asking for advice.

But, in Urbanofan's case, he has no business sparring based on the evidence that he has provided us!

Oh and you talking about him developing his sense of distance and timing through sparring, well, from the looks of it, he needs to develop proper punching mechanics/blocking/footwork, etc. before he even thinks of developing other things.

A word from the wise "one step at a time"!

was the video working okay,or are you two just slow punchers,it looked like the two of you were just pawing at eachother in a very slow wild like manner,are you newbies,when you spar you have to throw crisp on the mark combos:boxing:

Damn ignorant kids

why'd he get banned anyway? He does talk a lot of **** though maybe that's why

How many novices do you know that step into the ring and apply the fundamentals they've learned their first few times sparring. Most guys can shadowbox, hit the bag and mitts for months, and still get in the ring and flail their arms like they never had a boxing lesson in their life. It takes a while to get used to being in the ring;the timing and pace takes countless sparring sessions to figure out. That is something you can't pick up until you actually get in the ring, then little by little you start applying what you've learned.

My answer, the reason you see guys who have spent a good amount of time hittin' the bag/mitts/shadowbox and still look like crap is because they were not properly trained in hitting the mitts/bag/what have you.

We're not discussing other people here, we're specifically discussing the threadstarter since he was the one asking for constructive criticism and again, with the evidence he provided us, clearly shows he's not ready, not even close.

Sorry, that music annoyed the **** out of me...

Tips: Learn to punch with no mistakes, keep practicing punches so you can actually implement your technique when you get into the ring again.

Stick with the basics.

**** hooks and upper, keep with solid 1, 2's and when you think you're ready, THEN add the hooks and uppers.
