What do you do when someone turns their back in sparring?

its sparring mate you dont hit someone when their backs turned. take it easy and let them break the bad habit

 

In sparring u simply wait.

Its pretty hard for some people to train themself not to turn away from attacks (Me included)

Back off, go easy on him and he will eventually train his brain to face the adversity head on.

Its a very natural thing to turn away

 

What sort of a question is this? Hit him in the back of his head. Nah seriously you're a wanker, it's sparring so back off tough guy.

 

Ofcourse you don't hit them in the back of the head or anything ffs.

 

maybe hit them softly to tell them the consequences of turning their backs in a sparring/fight... If not they'll do it forever. And of course, dont hit him hard and comment on his bad habit after the sparring session

 

i used to get close and make out i was raping the boy (for a laugh of course) but usually guys would stop turning through embarrassment

 

Back off, they're either hurt or inexperienced

 

our you could let them turn onto a left or right hook,,,then tell them thats why you don't turn your back ,,,lets not forget us boxers have to learn how not to get hit in the face ,,lets hope he learns from his mistakes:deal

 

Exactly

 

I understand, i'm even smaller 140 lbs, so most of my sparring partners are larger than me. Almost every time, I go easy on newbies, just throw jabs, paw at the guy and work my defense. Back off when he's overwhelmed. But some of them start out nervous and throwing bombs from the get go. Eventually your instinct comes out and you begin to actually defend yourself and wham, they eat a hard left hook.
Plus, it's a different story if you were an amazingly talented boxer with years of experience. But me personally, an average-skilled boxer....(and usually smaller) - it takes a little effort not to eat hard shots.
I guess all you can do is try your best not to go too hard and keep reminding yourself that they are new. But sometimes, stuff just happens.
It's not entirely bad, most times they turn away cuz they're gassed. This teaches them not to get too aggressive too early. So they learn from it. I learned exactly the same way.
So that's my advice, just try your best. Keep your ego in check.

Now, on the other hand, when some clown starts to get cocky and they clearly don't have the skills to back it up - them I am all too happy to give them a nice dose of reality.

 

Give 'em one straight to the ****ing kidneys! :twisted:

Seriously though, back off. Its not a fight and its for learning experience. Hitting them in the kidneys will only make you look like a douche.

 

Pretty sure op is a douche.

 

don't forget as a beginner he not only ducks but has nothing to throw
