What style do you emulate while sparring?

[Verga]

Each time I try the rip in left/right hook body shots I always get clocked going in....I've started using jabs to the mid section working from the outside my inside game sucks .....

I get tense as **** when I'm about to spar but after eating a few leather shots I star loosing up ..the problem is that I have broad shoulders sorta like broner so sometimes I look stiff as ****.....

Just relax and focus,as with any sport when you are nervous it is hard to keep your legs up under yourself. Experience is something you can not buy,it comes with time..Just learn from your mistakes and better yourself each day. and most importantly HAVE FUN!!!!

I'm surprised that you're sparring so early to be honest. You're better off starting with a conventional stance and learning to throw the basic punches and combinations from them. It's more important that you get your technique right and that you don't fall into bad habits such as leaving your hand low, lunging into your punches and stepping over yourself.

Larry is talking bull****...why is Sugar Ray Leonard the fighter he is today? Because his favorite fighter was Frazier(which why's Leonard hooks are amazing) but after the Ali fight decided it was better to fight like Ali.

I try do everything like the best do it.

I hate 5-6 stages I fight in in 2 stances. From defensive to overly aggressive. My center-my go to style is a Cotto/Canelo style meshed with Gamboa that in my mind focuses on staying in constant balance to strike while being able to transverse the ring effortlessly. One step up in aggression is a Pirog/Morales type style that involves a lot of upper body movement and angle shifting with a height/level game thrown in. Then above that is a complete Tyson type style. I think you can see my drift here. I believe in being able to do everything in the ring.

Also work at punching at different distances. Most can either punch up close, mid range or from outside but very rarely can someone do all of these.

Also be obsessive about technique...record yourself and assess. I also worked hard on teaching my brain to throw punches as soon as the other has come back like Manny and exploding in my combinations like Broner...these two have seen my speed double at least.
