Hi guys,
Just an update, no one else to share with :L Dads in Nepal trekking and mum hates the sport and does not want me to be boxing one little bit!! :S for the record i weigh 75kg
But anyway, had my first 'real' sparring sesh today, only 4x 1 min rounds, i know its nothing but i was taking a beating and it was long enough!!!!
round 1, 74kg dude, similiar height, been boxing 5 months, so 2 more than me, Was pretty good, both throwing and landing some good shots,
round 2, (the nightmare) a guy 69kg, had 8 bouts, been boxing years,!!! He destroyed me, didnt come at me, waited for me to throw shots and picked off shots straight to the head, landed a huge clean shot, shook me up majorly, started to panic, kept dropping my guard, 5 seconds to go, lands a big backhand and bust my lip!!
round 3, same guy as round 1, absolutely battered and shattered, sloppy guard and he kept picking up big shots, but again i threw some back, caught a beauty on his nose.
round 4, just body shots against another 75kg, he has had a lot of exp, so he just got me on a rope and unleashed, managed to block a lot, but he landed some strong shots.........!
So basically, got fatiugued really quickly, and learnt a painful lesson, get my stamina up and keep my guard up at all times !!!!!! Sat with an icepack on my lip ! :L
And a quick question for you please.
Someone has mentioned to me that in the medical process when the dentist gives you a check up.... if you have arched teeth, or your front 2 teeth stick out slightly you are not allowed to box!?!?!?!! i am worried because mine do, not hugely but a bit!!!
Cheers guys
