Don't really know how to ask this

[Yuzo]

roadwork will give you an edge, especially on the street. like yuzo said, sparring lets you gain some comfort with having someone come at you

that is true, but before you start sparring, you will just want to have a person standing in front of you throwing punches. you can get your trainer or one of the guys at the gym to help you with that.



that is what will get you used to punches coming at you.



good padwork gets you not just used to throwing punches but it should also get you used to punches coming at you.
