Well tonight was a mixed bag.
The first round I sparred I basically did nothing and ate every kick (and he threw a lot) T threw at me. I did basically my usual against N, which is good but he’ll get a shot or two in. I got into his head with the footsweeps and my jab. Oh my jab was working on him. But back to T. That first round I did nothing, and the our Coach took me aside and gave me some advice. First round after that went better, I took away his kicks and got him to trade hands with me, which, while I still got hit, went better than eating kicks. After that I threw something else at him, I was doing both long range side kicks or I was sweeping his feet. Out of the corner of my eye in the middle of the round I see Coach on the floor doing a footsweep and continuing the spin into a spinning backfist. So I throw it, and I hit clean, wobbled T, and gave him a black eye.
My jaw hurts like hell now, but it was a good night, and it was worth it.
