A little backyard sparring.

[boxingsmash69]

Hello guys/girls,

Just wondering what the pros/amateurs/trainers/boxing-experienced people would say about this ponytail guy named AJ (black shirt) sparring with this guy named Stephen (brown shirt).



I obviously see little to no proper technique with both men.

It looks like the ponytail guy was completely... lost?

How would you guys counter the brown shirt guy?

I see lots of opening for jabs and straights...

the ponytail guy was you........you guys both suck. Really bad, even for non- boxers.

Actually, those are my son's friends, having this spar at my house.

I really wish they would use headgear, and prefer they join a gym and do their boxing in there instead of my backyard. But, my son just wont stop begging me to let them do it. Oh well, at least I told everyone not to blame me or my son if they get hurt.

what the hell does that guy think he is Roy Jones
whatever it is he was doing he needs to stop and get some lessons because he looks goofy and like he dont know what he is doing lol


and LOL @ wanna be pretty boy floyd in the famous shirt with benjamin... too funny

Get some mouthpieces if they didn't have any...oral lacerations hurt like a son of a ***** and are prety common when horseplaying like this. And never, ever, EVER spar on pavement w/o headgear especially when it appears there's a wetspot! That's just begging for non-boxing related injuries to happen, that would ultimately be blamed on boxing =\ If nothing else move it into the lawn.

As far as countering the brown shirt:

Stop walking in striaght without throwing punches or at least keeping your chin down / hands up.

Brown shirt looks like a southpaw, so circle to HIS right (your left) and try to keep your lead foot outside of his. Jab to the head while you turn him and as he turns or backs up to square you or face up drop the striaght right on top or into his chest.

Straight punches all day long. Brown shirt stuck his chin out so much you could picture a target on it like a punch-me-clown. Instinct may have you throwing wide, looping punches but stick with straight shots.

When brown shirt is bending over step in with a straight shot into the forehead. He has a thin enough mid-section that rolling out from punches wasn't a problem when he was straight up, but when he bent over it was a different story.

Brown shirt was constantly crossing his feet behind himself into non solid standing form. You can manipulate this with circling to his jab hand side (his right, your left) or even getting in close and turning over your shoulder to rough him up.

Also, a few other of his friends wanted to try out later that night.

JP = taller guy

The guy in brown would get completely schooled by anyone who can box, hes wide open for a whole variety of punches.

this is sad. I hope these guys aren't serious about boxing because if they are, they would get hurt badly

.

the big guy in the brown shirt, walks around like hes doing some ****ed up robot dance and hes ****ing awfull, he would be beten badly by a very inexrpirienced boxer. he is really poor. pony tail gy is ok, he keeeps his hand up and trys to box, he could train and become decent however the brown shirt guy , **** me he is gay,.
