this is for those that have sparred before and have taken a hit. i was wondering if any of you have experienced this while sparring. i got caught with a decent clean hit just above my forehead and it wasnt that bad of a hit so when i saw it coming i braced myself to take it. after that i was thinking ok not so bad now look up to counter/fight back. for some reason for like 1-2 seconds while my eyes were squinting it felt like that same feeling when you get water in your eyes where there is pressure from the water pushing against your eye lids. at the same time i was telling myself to open them because i needed to see if someting was comming but i felt frozen and tried to force my eyes open but couldnt for those 1-2 seconds. any input? thanks.

Getting rocked?

Only time I've been rocked was from a right hook by one of my coaches who is 30lbs heavier than me. Didn't make my legs limp or anything, just a bright flash in my left eye and then everything looked dark and fuzzy for a couple seconds. No feeling of pressure on my eye lids, but I guess it may be different for each person, or depending on where you get hit.Last edited by ScottDBA; 12-27-2008, 05:29 PM.

Ive been rocked a number of times because of my ****ty defence but ive been able to weather the storm.
The best thing to do is keep away from your opponent and try not to get bullied into the corner. look for the counter until your feeling confident to get back to putting pressure onto the other guy.
When i first got rocked i was getting batterd against the roped like tommy morrison against ray mercer.

i got caught with a good left hook, i didn't lose my footing or anything like that, but my hearing got insanely muffled for about two seconds and all i could hear was this high pitched ring.

ive been hit by really hard shots a few times (probably 6-7 times) , and had the ringing in my ears/slight headache after but my legs never moved at all, and it was only from really good shots that caught me on the temple, all from bigger guys so i think my chin is pretty good
and ive never been hurt in a fight, although in my last one i walked into a looping right hook that snapped my head back and made everyone go "ooh" but i wasnt dazed at all and countered immediately
some people i have seen get wobbled (eyes blank legs wobbly) damn near every time they spar or fight

In the first 20 seconds of the fight I hit him with a right hand that wobbled his legs and made him grab on to me which got him an eight count, and the crowd was totally silent. lol.

The guy was a good 40lb more than me and immediately apologized after he hit me.
I am assuming it must have been a right uppercut.
After that I decided I should learn some better defense. This was when I had been in the gym for like 4 months.

hmm myabe different for everyone then heh. yeah he naturally outweighs me by 20ish lbs. it was a hit just above my forehead. maybe just the impact stunned me and thats why i couldnt force my eyes open for that split second. aside from that it was all fun heh. he's still a beginner even though he trained for a year at an mma school in kickboxing and bjj just because he hasnt trained in a year lol and on top of that i think he never really trained straight up boxing. im probably just above a beginners level so any sparring is fun and a learning exp since there arent any close by gyms around here that teach straight boxing. the only thing that ****** was that fact that he was southpaw+ being a beginnerish at boxing he kept stepping on my foot even though i told me to stop to his right when he steps in to jab but oh well heh. interesting sparring a southpaw though. didnt get to through my hook/45 to his body cuz id be open for his right hook.

i got rocked by a right hook, followed by a left hand and right hand on the jaw
i was'nt hurt or nothin, but i consider it being rocked cuz my hands went down slightly and i could'nt move and i felt weak on my legs
but i did'nt go down course

Took a massive right from a heavyweight pro' coach (i'm a welterweight), he said after he shouldn't have thrown it that hard, that stunned me, only for like half a second but you know when you get hit and you just stop for some reason and go "oo". I take pride from it because it didn't bother me after the initial impact and I surprised my other coach by saying let's finish the round.
I remember another time, it didn't stun me or rock me or anything but it did take my mind off the fight. So i'm sparring, everything's going well, and I take a shot which you to be honest when sparring doesn't really register, but then there's this immense lingering pain and my brain instantly goes "what the **** is that?", and I continue to fight but then it must have been a good 1-2 seconds before I realised he straight righted me in the ****ing neck! Luckily it wasn't clean, that's why we keep our chin down, it must have gone through my jaw pushed my head aside and into my throat because I imagine if i'd have taken a clean right to the neck i'd have been choking so that's my conclusion. But it was a weird experience, 'cus I wasn't sure what happened, just that something was hurting and it wasn't a usual pain, then I realised it was my throat.Last edited by JayCoe; 12-27-2008, 09:47 PM.
