  • The first guy you sparred looks like his way over-matched skill wise, but he did have a good jab and was able to land it a few times. Versa what i would say for you is since you cant go all out and do have to hold back, unleash your jab like you would every other punch that you cant throw, the jab is the key to all sucsess however you seem to lack a very good one! Also is it you who wants to or are you told to hold back, becuz for a minute toward the end you looked like you where going to KO the second guy! Overall good work man, work on that jab and also the body was open alot with the second guy and it seemed like you where eye level with it but didnt attack! One more thing the level of comp at your gym does it get any better then that? and whats your am rec? GOOD WORK MAN KEEP IT UP

      I actually have a job jab.I just didnt always use it alot to get in at that gym I was going to.My main weapon is my jab now. I go to another gym now where I spar alot of pros.I see alot of tricks that they do and I adapt to that.

      As for me holding back.Well I have the tendency to think about knocking ppl out.So when I get at that level I have to calm myself down again.Its hard to hold back.I tell ya that. I thought for a split second to knock him out but then I snapped.

      Im 0-1 due to my slippery shoes that had me everywhere around the ring and falling. Its all good though. I knew it was my shoes.

      • Just wanted to drop in and say that was an awesome video Verse, and my respect for you being a fighter went up even further having seen you doing it. Look like Tyson in there dude.

        • The things i can critique on you probobly already know. Like you didnt jab enough there. You just seemed to walk inside though it did seem to work but it would set up your power shots better if you jabbed your way inside.

          Good Body Work

          Also i noticed at the end where the guy was just trying to let his hands go as much as he can to try n get leather on you. You werent really countering his shots, granted u were slipping them but he was bringing his hands back to his chest so you should of slipped to the outside and countered upstairs.

              Reason why Im looking for headgear with better vision. When Im that low all I can see is arms,and I also base my bob and weaves off of instinct. Now if I had better vision when crouched I would be countering all day because its more visible.

                  When I shadow box I bob and weave after I throw shots and when I throw shots. When I hit the bag,my heads going side to side. After I throw a combo I bob and weave and move out. When I do mitt work,even if they dont tell me to slip.I do it anyway.If they say jab 3 times,Im slipping everytime I throw a jab.After Im done with the combo I bob side to side once. When I had a slip bag I used to work on that for like 3 rounds.

                  I also anticipate the shot,well my body does.It moves on its own it seems.I guess I just have good reflexes or something,but the way to do it is do repetitive things. Ive been practicing on my defense for 4 years. I mostly work my defense more then my offense,then it translates to good offense.

                  I can tell you this.Im the only fool bobbing and weaving after every combo on the heavybag.
