    I agree with everything youve said. but he can still make an example of him if he's focused, keeps his hands up and throws sharp 1 2 and 1 2 3 compinations, straight sharp punches keeping him at range and not to mention keep movin his head. it should work!

    when I boxed we used to get kids from the street coming in acting like they're hard as **** all the time. talkin like they could ko everyone in the gym with just 1 punch. I was always one of the first to jump up and take these kids on in sparing. they used to always leave the ring with a red face and fat lip, bust nose, throbing ears! LMFAO 9 times out of 10 we'd never see em again. but every so often they'd come back next time with a totally different attitude!!!

            But they only started dominating after Lennox Lewis retired, Evander Holyfield declined and there were no other good heavyweights to take their place.

                  You want to teach him a lesson? Continue training hard regardless of what happens during sparring, if he slacks off he will begin to notice a gap between the two of you when you spar in the future.

                  He may very well whoop your ass 2 months of training isn't a long time and you've had a 5 month break.

                    training is important, but if your friend has better timing, speed and strength and endurance than you, you're ****ed.

                      Recently I was finally able to convince my friend to try boxing. But then he brags that he doesnt need training to keep up with me. All he needs is his instincts.


                      He finds the idea of training to get better in boxing a funny idea. Tomorrow will be his first time to come to the gym and he said he wants to do a 3 round spar with me and I want to effin teach him a lesson to make him understand the importance of training.

                      the problem is I only have 2 months of boxing experience and its already been 5 months since my last session.

                      Can you give me some advice on what to do to punish my friend? Like what are the most effective combinations to use on a complete newbie or how to dodge newbie punches. I really want him to recognize the importance of training. Thanks


                      Edit: I do have cardio though I do jog for 30 minutes everyday. But i dont know if its enough

                      2nd edit: to the persons who want to see the film of the spar:
                      I really want to do that but even though my friend acts like that he is still one of my closest friends. If I allow one of my friends to film it then thats like Im just showing off(If I dominate him) and im not that kind of person.
                      maybe your friend is a robot that only needs instinct and not physical attributes,.. I advise you not to fight him
