Got my second sparring session lined up tommorrow with a pro with a 3-0 record?

[whatevathehell]

should I even go to this? its my second but first with this gym im at so im thinking Im going up against somebody like myself. who been working out for a coupla months. but a pro?

hmmmmm.

I figure hes gonna take it real easy so should I go all out and try to convince him to whooop my ass or just lay back and throw a coupla jabs or what?

**** got me kinda nervous now that I think about it. I dont got the best technique or nothing but when I go to the gym I give it my all and I think people notice. Im gonna be on stage!!!!!

oh yeah this is the $30/yr. gym. Its real small so I just I gotta spar with whoevers available.

should I pop a pill or yellow jacket or something. Its only sparring but I wanna be prepared.

[Rampage*]

Don't take a ****ing yellow jacket pill.
Keep your defense tight, and don't stand toe to toe and trade with him.

video tape it..... just do what you have been training to do, dont go easy on a pro

[American_Ninja]

Your second time sparring ever? Why are they putting you in with a pro?
Did u piss someone off? Maybe I just dont have all the facts.

[SpeedKillz]

i'm sure he's not gonna try and kill u man jus go in there and work if he's a pro hopefully he has some professional courtesy and understands ur level. should be some good work for u.

Ive had pros that tried to kill me in the ring,macho punks.

As a pro, he should know how sparring works...I would almost prefer to be in there with a pro rather than some guy who's never sparred before, trying to prove himself, ready to take your head off to impress everyone.

[DELETED ACCOUNT 06]

Nice one. He'll be good to spar against. He'll have some great experience. This even could be invaluable experience. Oh yeah... and don't you dare chicken out!

Don't be scared, unless he's a complete **** you should come to no harm. Besides I find, the better your opponent, the better you spar yourself. He'll have been a beginner one day remember.

Dont' worry

[mgkirkpatrick]

its probably more for his benefit than yours so he's not going to want to blast you out inside a round. just try to work on things and dont worry too much about if you're going too hard.. a 3-0 has got to be able to handle anything a one month amateur throws at him. if the guy's not a prick you'll learn plenty and itll be great experience.

[Jab89]

usually pros hand back what ever u dish out, when i was sparring the pro in my gym he said im givin back everything u' throw at me, but ive been spaerring 4 a while. Good luck man dont be nervous just go have fun wit it hell you get an oppurtunity to spar someone who may be rising to become a champ... think of it that way.
