Lol seems like thats micks theory aswell
Lol.. You spar the bloke..and its blatant he does go easy with you to an extent..Because he has his hands low and he isnt all that busy in the ring.. But on the other hand..Its sometimes alot worse because he knows and i know i cant hurt him.. And he looks for counters..
So whats better ..He doesnt stay busy against you..But he doesnt pull his punches either..
He really bangs you.. I caught some real meaty body shots the other night and a big left hook on the side of the head... Rung my ears..
You know when you hold your nose and make your ears pop.. Well i do that and the air just comes right out of my right ear.. Dont hurt..But is a wee bit strange i recon..lol
Peace
