  • Have you ever sparred a guy that outweighs you by like 40+ pounds?

    I'm a lightweight, and today, I sparred some BIG tough heavyhanded southpaw light heavyweight...

    Whoa, I felt that weight on me! Damn...I only sparred for like 15 seconds when the trainer realised his weight is to much for me..

        that tells u something! work on ur footwork and movement so u are able to spar bigga guys.
        My main sparring partner was a heavyweight and fought for various national titles, so i got permanent scars from those spars haha, i was also concussed 1/4 times i sparred him.
        mind games play a big part when sparring bigga guys.

          i do this on a weekly basis, and 40lbs on me is 220lbs, dont think its such a big deal.

            depends on the quality of oponent, if u sparring novice heavyweight, u prolly get a better work goin for a stroll in the park. But if sparring a experienced heavyweight who applies pressure, ya f$%^ed and got big task on ya hands.

              Yeah. I have sparred someone 40 pounds heavier. More even, maybe about 60 pounds heavier. He was new to boxing, he kept rushing throwing some Vitor Belfort shi, I just did some side steps and then threw combos.

                I spar bigger guys there are 3 of them they all weight around 185- 210 I weight about 157 pounds when i fight. But these guys all have less experiance than me so its not a big deal. I would be scared though fighting someone 40 pounds heavier and most experianced.

                    yes, definitely. everybody i spar usually weighs more than me. and i usually use bigger gloves to dampen my punches more. also love to spar bareknuckle using only body punches. we just have to make sure, with the bareknucle sparring, not to fully unload at 100%.
