thanx guys. i saw alot of things i can improve on like more straight stiff jabs instead of pawing just to get inside,cutting off the ring,leaving more space for my shots,and i purposely didnt go alot of handspeed but it will be there next spar. and more weight behind my punches. and more foot movement.and cutting the ring off better,I started doing it with the first guy at the end. i think im hard on myself myself to much sometimes.ahaha but i think thats the only way you will make it,if u judge yourself low and never satisfied because it will be u better if u keep workin on it.

actually the only hard hits i did were to the body and a few rights.. on the hooks i didnt have my leverage like usual or speed.i think its the punchs that they didnt see coming is what really hurt them.but yeah maybe i should tone it down ever more then i have now. but my fear is if i do that i wont have enough stamina to actually hit ppl hard in am.fights cause i went light on the sparring partners.i sorta wanna mirror what i wanna do in am. fights but i know i cant and my coach wont really let me.Originally posted by Larry Merchant View PostComment

I think you have more of a pro style then a AM style get the AM fights under your belt learn from them have fun get the so called "wind" in these fights. but Win and LOSS should not mean much to you at this stage but dont but be a spent force be easy on your self and spar as much as possible but please dont spar that hard again. **** around and play like your Chris Byrd and **** but still be able to crack like Tyson.Comment

Need to jab more, you seem to go in a lot with hooks, smart boxers would jab the hell out of you and uppercut you whenever you try to go in with your hooks.
When the first guy was heading to the ropes he managed to hit you with a couple of right hooks to your head, you need to keep your left arm up to protect yourself.
When you had the first guy at the ropes, you were winding up a few of your hooks to the body, you could get countered with a big right.
You were head-hunting too much, the second guy kept his arms up so high you could have easily killed him to the body.
Looking at your arms, looks to me like you're lifting too much weights. I say lay off the weights, you should want arms like PBF, not Mike Tyson. Those big muscles only slow you down and kill your stamina.Comment

You need more skilled sparring partners. The first guy wasn't TOO bad, but the second guy? Honestly looked like he was in there for the first, maybe second time ever.
When you bob and weave, you sometimes lean to your right in a way where you get your weight on your right heel. At the same time, you drop your left a little. The guys you were in there with fail to capitalize properly from this, but if you're ever in there with someone a little more talented, a little less gunshy, you might end up paying for it, because the only place to go from there, is forward, right into a right hand.
You also become way too right handed when you get in close. You want to use your left in there if you want to hurt him to the body.
But seriously, get some sparring partners with a little experience, and a little talent (first guy wasn't as bad as the second guy, but that ain't saying much). Those guys in n that video are just there to stroke your ego...
