People used to ask me if I ever felt the need to kick, knee or elbow while sparring, but I'm not sure why I never felt the need to. The only thing I can come up with is that I was thinking and practicing specific things while I sparred, so I never felt like I needed to throw anything but punches.
On the other hand, I feel like my physical toughness increased dramatically while boxing. I think this also contributed to me enjoying boxing training more. We used to spar and hit the punching bag in my kung fu class too, but the consistent, more individualized, training in the boxing gym made a huge difference for me.
