    How Many Different SPARRING PARTNERS Do you have ?

    On average, how many different sparring partners do you have in a typical week ? I know sparring partners come and go, just looking for a rough average.

    My average is 5-6 different sparring partners. I'd love for it to be more, but too many soft ****s in this world !

      i get about 5-6 also, but usually they are different cuz there are alot of fighters that come and go to my gym and we go to different gyms sometimes too, if theres no one to spar, we jus spar with each other, but we try to get new and fresh guys cuz we learn each others style and movements and reactions and stuff and it becomes a "boring" sparring session if u will no real "work" ya know

        spar with as many guys that you can find that offer some skill. The more styles that you prepare for in training the more styles you will be able to work off of in the fights.

        We would go all over for good sparring. Galaxy always had good sparring available but we would travel to find all of the different styles that we could..........Rockin'

          my gym dwindles every now and then because the guys get hurt.. but us or the Pro...

          Right now we only have

          Lavaugn easly(pro-160) Irvin "Johnson?" (3 time florida state champ-152)

          Will *sumthin* (6'4...175 has 2 belts from somewhere) Then me...Then J.P. (manny pacqioua) 110 pounds.


          Sometimes the trainer gets the UFC/MMA guys, football players, and wrestlers to come in the ring if theres no one in the gym to spar. but they usually are all there.

                  Ive pretty much become a sparring partner for a trainer at my gym. He trains 3 heavyweights, a light heavyweight and a welterweight and Ive sparred all of them but he doesnt train me. I go in the gym and he asks me if I want to spar to day and he has me spar one of his guys whos gettin ready to fight, etc. I dont have a trainer and Im out of shape so they are in better shape than me, but I hang with them and because Im real aggressive and press the action I wear them all out. Each of them have told me that I work them more than anybody else has. My defense isnt that good though cause I like to just rush in and attack so Ive been takin alot of shots.
