all during the day i was expecting to spar a new guy that was pretty tall and 180 lb.
but a guy from another gym, john, came. I thought it was a new guy but his coach came in and said he was looking to spar a heavyweight. I was the only heavyweight in there so he was like okay, stretch and get the headgear. he weighed 220 lbs. 6 ft 6 with a long reach. he told me his record was 3-0, im like, ok.
so, i should have really expected what happened, to have happened. He had like 4 friends there with him so I shouldve expected him to come out hard in the 1st, I was expecting him to feel me out and work on my slipping...he had a quick right hand though and nailed me pretty good early on, which is when I threw my game plan out the door and started swinging for the fences on him, sometimes connecting, sometimes not. holyfield style. go in with a plan, get hit say **** it and start brawling... Not the way i wanna be but its how i did it. Beginning of the 2nd round, I timed a perfect wide looping power right hook, the type of punch my coach always tells me not to practice or throw in the ring......and it connected flush on his chin as soon as he stepped in with all his weight, i gave him a little shove and his legs were gone, his eyes was rollin around in his head and ****. Good sportsman that I am, I didnt even try to finish him like I know he wouldve done to me judging from how he came out at me in the first round, I helped him regain his balance and asked 'u alright?' as he staggered away and I fired off a jab sending him in retreat. he caught me with some good shots though but the majority of them landed when I was moving away with my chin tucked. my jaw hurts like a *****, i dont think it's broken though. No clicks or pops but I can't bite down comfortably, my bite feels off balance due to the swellin but cant tell really on the exterior of my face. i got a black eye too. I wish i got footage of his face. His face, 20-25 mins after we sparred, looked like Foreman's walrus face on his comeback footage. Completely swollen cheekbones, cut up swoll lip, bloody nose, swollen eye. He looked way worse than me.
anyways i have no idea how to put stuff from the camcorder to the computer but i will find out soon and get my sparring session on here for all you guys to critique. call me a bum or tell me what I did right or what I should do more against this particular guy or style modification suggestions etc. its whatever. im tired, just ran..need to get a bite, starving, but not gonna be able to chew comfortably so im going to drink a protein drink.. anyway if someone wants to save me some trouble and can tell me a cheap easy way to get something from a camera to a computer id appreciate it
