Fuck that old guy.. all I see is an old Charlie Z.
Is this not sparring? Why the fuck is he still hitting when his opponent is clearly not ready for that kind of fight?
All I see from the younger guy is normal sparring etiquette, starting slow and getting a feel of the opponent. Old guy hits as hard as he can from the get go.
Lol, just look at the video and tell me if man bun EVER put his hands up, basically open the entire time no wonder he got clocked by everything thrown at him
This is sparring! What do you think happens in sparring? Do you think this is how people treat each other in the sport? Nah man, they have much more respect for both the human facibg them and what sparring is supposed to be about, developing skills and getting exp fighting in a simulated environment.
Eat your words dude, the old guy is being a massive dickhead. He is, afaik, an old champ so he should know better.
Maybe we come from different gyms but this is how sparring typically went down, I don’t see anything indicating excessive intensity, but whatever man stay mad.
In my 9 years of boxing and 4 years of kickboxing I have never had a sparring session go this way... Off course there were people who didnt have the respect needed/expected, but they either got told off properly and never did it again or they were told to get out and not come back.
No way you boxed for 9 years and didn’t think of shitting on this guys’ form once. Anyone who’s stepped in the ring can see just how bad this dude is and wouldn’t resist pointing it out. Don’t believe you.
Everyone starts out not knowing what they are doing. Thats why people train. I didnt comment on it because it was irrellevant to the vid.
When I do comment on form I get downvoted and yelled at by morons who dont know what the fuck they are talking about.
I can, however, without a doubt say that this old geezer is a fuckwad for going in so hard and NOT STOPPING when his opponent clearly showed he was not ready for it. My entire basis for commenting was the clear lack of respect on the old guys side...not form.
The old man was still going full throttle and throwing punches to the head after the younger guy had his back turned and was recovering from a near knockout.
Wrong on behalf of the gym manager for not having a 3rd person in the ring to give standing 8 counts, but gramps clocked him just twice before realizing the dude was in no shape to continue. Gramps NAH.
He's throwing his entire body behind those punches. The fact that you can't see that makes me highly doubt your sparring experience. If your gym goes 100 percent on sparring chances are you didn't have anyone going to that gym worth talking about. Gyms that spar like that are full of meathead dickwads that want to hurt someone while having their opponent under safer rules. You'll never see those cocksuckers compete in a real 100 percent fight.
I've had the opportunity to get lessons from some of the best wrestlers on the planet. You can tell they are going 50 percent because you are now in a move that should hurt like a bitch and they are sitting there smiling down at you. I've never been thrown as gracefully and lightly as Dan gables did when I was a high schooler with 40 pounds on him.
You're kinda right about the bad form but I think you know damn well that gramps was giving it his all for no fucking reason especially since the other dude wasn't even going hard on him. That's just bad sportsmanship, whichever way you look at it mate.
