  • Becoming a sparing partner?

    Professionally. I hear it pays.

    I am ****, but have a little technique. I am however quite a big guy and can stand up to a fair few shots. I reckon I could be an effective talking punch bag for a up and coming pro.

    I need a job, fast, and was wondering how to get into this line.

        No. Don't do it to yourself. Read this, even though its really a glorified version of what being a sparring partner means. (this guy has actually "made it")

          well any sort of pro wouldnt take you on as a sparring partner unless you had at least a few am (preferably pro) fights under your belt

            Yeah good point. If a pro wanted to hit an object that doesn't really hit him back, he'd hit a heavy bag.

                  Being a Sparring parther is no easy job, you would have to be in proper shape and you could take a few beatings along the way.And don't just think you will get in all the big camps either you do have to be pretty decent, have a long hard think about it first before making a decision.
