Was my first time sparring today. Im 125lbs. and I was sparring a heavyweight I did pretty good he only hit me like 4 times the whole time, but I had a really hard time getting to him because of his reach which was probably like 7 inches at least. This kid has had a couple fights too so he has experience. I need some advice on how to get inside on him, and also everytime I got to him he kept turning his back away from me so I would have gotten him a lot more if wouldn't have been doing that. And 2 of the shots were cheap shots as well. But I think I did pretty good considering it was my first time and he outweighs me by like 100lbs. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

nope trainer didnt. he's my cousin. we did it in my gym. i just did it again though and did much better. he didnt hit me once and i got him quite a few times. best one was he covered up after i got him in the face and i split his guard with an uppercut and got him again with 3 hooks, and I was getting him with the left hook to the body a lot too.

well if your 125 lbs its always going to be hard sparring a heavyweight...just stay busy move your head keep your guard up and jab your way inside, land a few fast shots to his body and get out of there
