8 rounds, 2 days before fight time? Sureeeee ya did. I sparred my friend earlier today, I'm a welterweight, he's a heavyweight, 12oz gloves, no head gear, he knocked me off my feet twice. That, is a true story.
Meh, I know what you mean but it was more of a once off. I normally just do three two minute rounds with someone or 6 1 minute rounds when its three way. I did three rounds, then just did another couple cause my coach asked me if I wanted to do some more sparring. It was three way sparring and would only of been in for a round or two but one of the guys got hurt so the other guy who was the heavyweight hadn't gotten his rounds yet so I had to stay in for a while with him. It was a really good night of sparring though. I felt great afterwards. I love the sparring. I had sparring last Tuesday and it was really light and easy and I felt depressed leaving the gym feeling like I hadn't even sparred yet. So tonight I wanted to get proper hard sparring.
:rofl I was gona say that before. But i was in a nice mood, and didn't wana take the chance that it was his wife, i mean husband, no wife !!
I would love to spar tough rounds the day before the fight if I could because my confidence is always sky high after it. Although I do pick up small little injuries most of the time so it would be a risk and obviously my coach would never have me do that.
yea after i spar n do good my confidence is so high i usually dont wanna stop or i cant wait to get back in there. sucks wen its the other way around tho lol .
