I can honestly say that I have never seen any guys 'challenge' each other in my gym. No egos in the gym yo.

It was not in a gym, that is the crazy part.

Ok--I have not been in the gym with gloves on for years. The last time I was there, the trainer Mark Anthony a crusier weight kick boxer who fought in Japan thought I had good hand speed and some pop. So he matched me up with a very skilled welter weight kid for some sparring work.

Being a natural 6'2" 77" reach, and then in shape 220, he was not match for me. But the kid was frustrated. No doubt he had Napoleon's syndrome. I took it easy on him, even though he make noise when he actually landed something, which was rather annoying. Then I we went to the heavy bag for drills. He gave me some tips on techniqe with a hint of a snark, so I started on the bag easy with him holding it, then without warning dug my feet in, and let go with a hard right which jolted the welter back wards several feet and almost floored him.

Actually if you grab a heavy bag hard, and have some power, this is not too hard. Anyway the trainer laughed, and said pay back is a *****. He knew why I did it. Then he wanted to match me vs some pro joruneyman heavyweight. The guy was slow, but built like a brick house.

After three of work in I said no thanks. In the gym, heavies who can hit really do not want to spar hard with each other often, but little guys who can't punch will go at each other all day.
