I'm still at the bottom a very high mountain (that means just a beginner), so I work on focused tactics.
One round I may just counter. One round I may just find range.
I've been getting into a bat the punch and counter thing for the last few weeks. It's a little more proactive than just catching. Just bat the strike and counter with either punch in the same motion.
Jab right hand
Deep breaths before sparring to relax:cool:
One of the best things I have found is always keeping your eyes on the opponents gloves at all times +
mixing it up to be able to throw a lead right cross or left cross for southpaws followed by a jab.
It still amazes me how rarely this is done. When Pavlik fought Sergio Martinez only one time did he throw a lead right and it landed. Jack Lowe never mentioned to Kelly in the corner to try it more often.
Once you have a fighter used to the same rhythm it will be hard to land. Mixing a lead power shot will keep them off balance and help land the jab more effectively thus changing the fight or sparring session as they will have to watch for not only a lead jab but lead from both hands.
Something that I've always found beneficial is sparring under an agreement to only use certain punches.
Spar 3 rounds only using jabs and crosses.
Spar 3 rounds only allowing jabs and hooks.
It does wonders for learning to dissect patterns and learn to counterpunch effectively

For beginners a good thing to practice would be specific or situational sparring.
For example first start off with one person jabbing and the other blocking, parrying or slipping inside or outside. Also, work on one person pressuring and one person circling. It is best to build your way up to full sparring rather than jumping straight in.
I have coached a number of years and found that touch sparring to begin with is a nice way to practice distance and timing. (Touch sparring consists of points tapping the shoulders and top of the leg) then moving on to soft body sparring, then to dummy head sparring(pardon the the term dummy, usualy more experienced boxer goes in and taps the more inexperienced boxer on the head, good for both boxers) then onto soft full sparring(does what it says on the tin) then full or open sparring( this is a fight without the judges, the closest you will get to a fight)
Learn how to "pull your punches" meaning punch without power! Thats how you "light spar" and thats how you work when working on new techniques your learning. This isn't powder puff punches but your not looking to knock each other off balance or simply "hurt one another"!!
You can break down and work on jabs and countering jabs, all types of senerios can be worked out but working with soft touch punches is not a good way to concentrate or learn.
Having one partner on defense is fine to but the one throwing shots needs to box as if the other guy can reply. Respecting a good spar partner is obviously important. You could easily be stuck not having one!! Then your dead in the water! Ray.
If you have a fight coming up, hard sparring can be advantageous; however, as a beginner start slow. Usually it takes one person to kick or punch really hard, then both parties start elevating the pace.
