Starting sparring tomorrow

[BrananaRepublic]

Any advice?

[Pez]

Don't forget your mouthpiece.

[ReadyUp]

Hit him. Alot.

[BrananaRepublic]

My trainer told me he was going to put me against one of his best guys and just tell him not to hit me too much so I can learn.

[SUPREME.]

Keep your hands up.

[ChowAce]

Stay busy, circle away from his power hand, keep your hands up, and stick to the basics.

You're overly worried about sparring if you had to make a thread about it.

i think he just wantes attention in another thread some guy made he said he never tightened his abs during sparring now his saying that hes gonna start it tomorrow lolz.

Try to anticipate what your opponent will do.

Keep your hands up at all times. Blocking punches with your face isn't ideal!

ah yes, freshmeat........... this guy that you are supposed to spar will certainly be hitting you, maybe not hard but he will be keeping you honest.

The jab is the greatest tool that you posses. Whether short or tall learning to work a good jab is huge. Remember that there is another target besides your opponents head, that ofcourse is his belly. Make him defend both areas instead of just one area. I'll bet, with you being freshmeat, that he'll mention that he was impressed that you even considered touching the body.....Rockin'
