[@allenp8165]

the reason boxing has the most deaths and CTE over things like muay thai and MMA due to the fact that boxing chronically does not leave ego at the door in sparring. Hard sparring is a large part of boxing culture, I get it. But, its not necessary for improvement unless youre prepping for a fight, but in week to week sessions, it actually hinders creativity and learning ability. The point of sparring is to practice hitting and not getting hit, no one ever said you need to hit hard.

[@Nexus-1068]

Well said bro. When I was boxing I ventured into another gym to pick up some sparring sessions. The trainer said to me "We don't take prisoners in this gym" Rd 1, the guy I was sparring, was practically grunting whilst trying to knock me down or out. He landed a hard right and bloodied my nose. The trainer said "Are you good, or are you a pu$$y?" I did another two rounds, but I had to open up on this clown for my own preservation. Afterwards, the trainer asked if I would be coming back? I said, "If I ever feel a desire to get busted up and punch drunk, I'll definitely be back!"

[@theslavicharuspex]

some fighters improve and develop skills through hard sparring, but not all of them, and certainly not amateurs, so I see your point brah

[@multechpro7151]

You are partially right there. As someone who is practicing boxing doing light sparring will make you improve, however once you get good and you want to get even better you need to do hard sparring at some point. The reason for it is that at some point you want to test your reactions to faster punches how to avoid or parry them, unfortunately more speed = harder punches it's physics.

[@bEtHeSdA_LAME_sTuDi0s]

I agree. This is a pitiful display of ego that will only ensure these young boxers leave their careers over early in the gym. Pointless chest puffing nonsense. A hard spar is ok but this is a fight.

[@johanneskarlsson6535]

There are times for harder sparring but it'll cost you. Lot's of improvement can be made and technique honed in lighter sparring. And the more explorative, playful sparring that is so useful and fun is difficult to do if you spar hard all of the time. I'm not gonna play around as a southpaw if it might cost me a concussion, yet it might be very useful, no?

[@HaischkaEST]

Blue's problem is that he's got to throw back as soon as that guy finishes his shots, otherwise the guy will keep firing. You've got to condition the opponent to expect danger with every combo.

[@tyrantula767]

Obviously big gap in experience...blue gets more respect from me. He went the distance despite lack of experience. Red should show some restraint since he's obviously a lot further ahead in his training.

[@Ignas3runner]

Its a hard sparring day to emulate the fight, red is also training, how do you learn finishing opponents if you don’t push yourself past empathy

[@vasco6395]

I'll tell you the truth, the only way for a shorter person to fight against someone taller is to be aggressive, in light sparring they don't do well because they can't get close and throw a barrage of blows...

Damn blue giving me traumatic flashbacks of starting boxing while still smoking cigarretes xD... its tough to be in that situation..Red was so SHARP & Skilled probably a PRO.. but blue kept fighting and threw in between the shootouts.. great video man keep it coming

[@OfficialParallel8]

Blue can actually fight though, which is an interesting thing to note. If you watch the video I have where I write “a young Canelo” in the title, he does pretty good there. So I’m thinking he just didn’t have an answer for the pressure, & nope, he’s an a amateur boxer lol

This isn't sparring, the guy is going full force

[@ricewookie]

Positive criticism: If you're going to try to fight like floyd mayweather, watch and ask yourself what floyd does so his opponents are able to smother him and get inside like that. Stiff strong jabs and foot movement, Keeping opponent on the tip of the jab. Let the opponent fear getting inside

[@restitutororbis964]

Yeah blue tried it but was being irresponsive. Not very good use of the jab. I think he felt overwhelmed by red’s infighting.

[@perialis2970]

3:24 i felt the blue guy's coach MAN such a missed opportunity to do a left hook or smth hahaha, but hes definetly learning. just hope he contines learning even if hes a little slow in the start like me, it was easy to dissapoint my coaches then

He will keep going as long as he has the support and will to move forward. Thank you for being supportive towards him too

i love this....they are bringing the dog out of blue helment and red is letting him work. great sparring.

That’s how I saw it too. They let him keep going to make him dig deep and bring his heart out. And I think he did just that because those rounds were NOT easy

[@NetGuyMsia]

@@OfficialParallel8 Those rounds were brutal.

[@playboy198900]

this kind of sparring makes me envious, i see a gap in ability or obvious punching power and maybe red should've taken some gas off the pedal since he was going 90-100% and clearly the dominant fighter, but we dont know the context of this sparring match..i look forward to seeing both these guys put in more work and see these spars will toughen anyone up

[@stearnsy4005]

Red isn’t putting the gas on at al he’s letting the other guy work a lot of the time, could of finished it when he wanted

[@xay3527]

Naah red coulda went alot harder fs, he was workin wit em

[@OfficialParallel8]

I agree with the other guys in the comments. Red’s gas tank was probably closer to 60-70% and I doubt he was hitting as hard as he can. I hope I can film a tournament where he’s going 100% though!

[@tientruong2007]

​@OfficialParallel8 even if he wasn't going 100% he is clearly hitting way harder than his opponent. Typical sparring etiquette is matching their power.

[@OfficialParallel8]

@@tientruong2007 ….can’t disagree with that lol. But i also don’t know the backstory of whether they were trying to get Blue to get used to a certain level of aggression…or did he just walk into that without knowing who he was up against. Red is relatively well known in the area and is ranked #1 in Mexico at 132. So it’s like….you had to know before you got in there lol

[@tientruong2007]

Dayammm blue lacks pop in his punches and didn't jab enough, that's why red was so comfortable moving in and popping off shots without worrying about counters.

[@shadon9183]

They did good teaching him how to deal with pressure, The kid with red headgear also did good teaching him and giving him a chance to hit back

[@ehimareaigbokhaevbo9430]

Dayum! Red headgear is like a mini Mike Tyson. Angle Shifts, Subtle switch hitting, dipping low while slipping and rolling, aggressive combinations to the body and head, amazing ability to close the distance and take away the jab! That kids the real deal man! The peekaboo style is one of the hardest and draining styles to master, but he did it all and left blue headgear guessing... Props to blue headgear though, not much he could have done other than use checkhooks while pivoting outt, turn more to get off the centreline, implement more uppercuts, post the jab out there to better manage the distance for outboxing and vary the jab between power and light jabs to make red headgear respect his power... Cant say most of this would have worked though, cos red headgear is just too crisp with that technique. Mad props to both of them.

Truthfully. I don't know much about boxing but Blue's defense looks solid because he wasn't taking crazy shots. He got hit with a couple of shots but nothing major. Respect to both. He just has to fight for the middle and stay off the ropes because that puts him in a defensive position while allowing Red to get off on him.
