Another sparring video, 2 months on. In my last video i said i had been training for 4 months, turns out it was actually 3 So, here it is. I am the one in black. I weigh 58 kg (same as the other boy) and i am 5'11. I mentioned in another thread about showboating, here is the fight i was talking about. Also, in the 2nd round the boy goes absolutely insane :L [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IL4efDldzgc[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLSDLYH-KPI[/ame] thanks for any feedback.
yeah he did go insane you're both flat footed though keep on your toes as ur tall tame him more with jab (with a stiff jab he wont come forward as often!)
You tend to loop your punches as you walk forward, you're just asking to get countered. You have little to no head movement, try to work on that. Your feet get tangled a few times, and it seems like when you retreat you're off balance.. Other than that, good job man.
footwork needs to be better but hey only 4 months training. i trained for a year b4 i sparred. i guess i had longer to get rid of bad habits, before i suffered consequences of them
Start of this post is abit disrespectful. He did get frustrated but anyone who gets in the ring gets my respect.
No disrespect meant. He did well and he busted my nose quite bad so i know he got the better of me at points. Also, putting your hands at your side, dancing and smacking your gloves together at someone is a bit disrespectful :-( All that aside, thanks for the feedback everyone.
It's difficult to assess with that guy, because he appears to be very very green in boxing. Therefore, you can get away with a lot of things that you would not be able to against somebody with more of a skill set. Given that you are very new, I would say at this point work on continuing to develop your jab and basic 1-2. Also work on breathing in the ring.
