Hiya, I'm new to boxing and training for a white collar charity event. Has anyone got any advice to reduce some red marks / glove burn on my face from sparing? Cheers.
I never had this problem, likely because of the liberal use of vaseline before a sparring session. If you're not already doing this, get on it! Aside from avoiding these types of burns/scrapes, you could also avoid potential cuts that could ruin your chances of competing. And a LOT of head movement. When I was new, getting hit in the face was a regular thing. When I learned to move my head, it was a different story. Good luck with your training, and make sure to update us on the outcome of your fight!
:rofl:rofl How to stop face marks.... stop getting hit in the face as much? But unfortunately, i dont think you will be able to manage it. My advice? Quit now. Find another sport
