Kell Brook sparring(vid)

is it true that at the ingle gym they prefer to do body sparring and light sparring?

 

According to the book's i read and what people have mentioned, yes. This was a while ago, not sure if it's still the case. I'm sure another well known gym also train in this way,cant think of it .

 

there was a rumour calzaghes gym only did light sparring and body sparring but that was a BS rumour

 

heres a interview on why they spar like that just about the gym and how they work interesting insight into the ingles.

my friend gareth couch trains with them now,he has become extremely sharp after a few months with them..

 

Cheers, was there not a rule that you didnt get to punch anything till you learned your "lines" ? Maybe was more for the kid's, not Pro's coming in etc

 

Kell Brook will be the next big star in British boxing. :deal

 

I think that kind of sparring loses some of the benefits.

I don't think it does much for your toughness in taking a few solid blows. Also how can you know if you are timing shots correctly if you are tippy tapping guys on the gloves? It just lacks any kind of intensity.

I prefer the James Toney old school sparring. Call your sparring partner a *****, cuss out his mom and give each other a good going over without trying to knock each other out.

 

:rofl

thats how we spar in my gym:deal

 

I remember in Oz at the time, the local paper was reporting back on his sparring with Toney. Got to wonder though, why Green dosent use his range more, im pretty sure when i saw him fight he kept his punches short and stood in front of them.

Just likes a fight i guess

 

I'm sure it helps his strength and inside know how to stand there with Toney. Toney is the master there. Green did a good job, even though Toney was clowning around and clearly had the upper hand when he wanted to.

 

I'd like to invite James Toney to a dinner party.
