Come on we gotta have some guys doing a real sport here.
Gabriel Ramirez
Don't do sparring?
Nigel Benn, Joe Calzaghe and loads more didn't even spar.
Austin Miller
Just spar lightly lol
Isaac Ross
Doesn't happen - ever. If you spar light, the other guy will ramp it up.
Nathaniel Morgan
Ever had a heavyweight jab you lightly? Lol. I guess it's okay if you're a manlet like the Thais who only spar lightly. A 260 lbs corn-fed farmboy will light you up (more like "lights out actually) even with a light punch.
Noah Bell
Just gotta go with the right club that's mature about sparring.
>I'm going easy today bro lets go 75%.
An experienced martial artist will be able to do this. Even 50% and spar appropriately slowly and lightly. You shouldn't spar 100% every time. Only brainlet clubs do that. Pro's certainly fucking don't.
Broken joints are pretty rare in stand up grappling. Just collar bones and little shit. Most 'joint' injuries from wrestling tend to be leglocks put on too hard or you're own fault.
Evan Butler
No he won't unless you're both complete and utter retards or beginners who have no clue what you're doing
Wyatt Bailey
Switch to a grappling art instead of getting smashed in the head repeatedly.
Leo Baker
lightly and with good training partners. If the dude cracks you accidentally with one punch dont get all pissed of and ramp it up. Fuck it you guys are practicing literally hitting each other, shit happens. Just keep going and if he doesnt stop tell him. This isn't about being a pussy this is about potentially getting seriously injured. Save getting your shit punched in for the fight
Austin Foster
Doesn't work irl.
Is grappling much better when it comes to brain damage? All that choking and throwing.
Wyatt Jenkins
I certainly won't "keep going". I already have enough trouble with the old noggin'.
Austin Smith
fair enough, i dont mean getting dropped or something though, i just mean if he hits you hard where you might get pissed off. I see it way too much where a nice light sparring turns into hard sparring from a few shots. If you get dropped or some shit your done for then day, and at least one or two weeks
Jaxon Harris
I spar my little brother. He's 70kg and I'm 110kg. He goes all out, which is a good challenge and allows me to train keeping calm under a barrage of punches. Pretty funny, there's been two occasions where he's gone too far and I've ended the fight with a single punch. One bust his nose open and the other winded him.
Andrew Johnson
>becoming brain damaged increases liberalism
Elijah Richardson
Yea it works. I've been doing martial arts for over a decade. You're asking fucking beginners questions so I assume you brand new.
You go to a retard boxing club. If you knew how little work it takes to set up a club like that and how little experience your average boxing instructor has you'd have the confidence to say. Lets just do some lighter sparring today.
As an adult martial arts class you hve to say it all the time. I need to spar light today I have an interview tomorrow/my shoulders injured/I'm hving ankle trouble/I had a long fucking day.
Take your no excuses fight club bullshit back to the high school bike sheds and fuck off.
Ayden Harris
What how long have you been training? Man I just try and pick the dudes I know i can neutralise or boys in the gym that I trust not to try and KO me so I can feel free to experiment with new techniques and ad to my game which is what I assumed the point of Sparring is. If you have dudes throwing bombs at you just go kill or be killed mode especially if you wnna be in the game for the long hall you can't be letting cunts take your longevity in the gym. Also put more of an emphasis on footwork and defence to get out of the way of the heat when it comes. I t sounds like you're a march him down and stand right in front all the time kind of guy. As for stand up grappling. What are you refferring to? Wrestling? clinch exchanges during boxing rounds?
Josiah Thompson
You tap out before passing out, no worse than holding your breath for a couple minutes. I've been doing jiu-jitsu and wrestling for years and I've never taken a hard blow to the head.
Adrian Flores
Yes, it does work. Just because you train with boneheads doesn’t mean everyone does.
Elijah Ramirez
Millions of people train boxing/mma other sports involving striking and millions of them also does sparrings, how many times do you hear of someone getting a CTE because of that? Maybe 5 every year? Go do it, its safer than driving a car
What are the dds they can do this remotely with 5g?
Chase Howard
don't ever masturbate or have sex all the way from beginning to end of your entire training career, and then at least for one year after your last fight. also during that one year after retiring, meditate a lot and cycle lion's mane (and cbd occasionally). a meditation retreat would also be good. the nonut is most important though. it takes like 90 days of a clean streak for the channel upwards to be established and then once that's done the jizz will nourish your brain (ojas shakti). srs.
Ian Cooper
Find a sparring partner that isn't a fucking bellend
Mason Hall
Don't get hit.
Isaiah Long
how often and heavy is you sparring session? we do sparring twice a week, every other week we have one heavy sparring session. have been doing this for 7 years now and despite being knocked down countless times and knocked out 3 times, never noticed anything out of the ordinary. but then again I do Muay Thai not boxing.
Man there's a big difference in taking some shots at a local boxing gym once or twice a week and pro fighters putting in hundreds of rounds with the best killers on the planet.
If you get rocked, don't spar for a little while, and don't swang and bang like an idiot. You'll be fine.
Nicholas Brown
Also, this is one time where being a little pudgy can be beneficial. I'm a fluffy permabulk, but I rarely get rocked unless I REALLY get caught clean.
Jaxson Perry
