Depends who I'm sparring. Some about 3-6 with a skilled partner. Or 6-8 at a slower pace working more on defense.

Sometimes 10 minutes straight with 1 partner, sometimes half an hour switching partners no rest, sometimes 8-10 three min rounds.

The last time I put gloves on I was gased after 2 rounds..........I beat the shit out of the dude for 2 rounds and then the 3rd round I could barely keep the gloves high enough to cover my face........I lasted though and think I took it 2-1........that was 10 years ago.........

I did a lot of interval running and plyometrics before I went to the gym my first spar went 4 rnds, the next 2 went 6 my trainer was impressed with my endurance compared to my size. at 5' 11" 260 back then.

When I started? None. My first round sparring I had to stop because I got punched in the nose and promptly puked from fear.

Not one of my prouder moments.

I think every one had to be nervous when they first did sparring even if your not fighting good boxers you still have no idea what it is going to be like

When you're just getting into this, heart is all you've got.
