My trainer told me one day after I got whacked pretty good in sparring (still did better than the other guy) that "Just because you can take a good shot doesn't mean you have to." that made a ton of sence to me, and I truly do try not to get hit, but it just sort of happens.:!:
thats bad, took me ages to find a gym. definitly as i had been sparring the last month and just hit my stride now ill have to get back into it he speaks sense then
