Well, I certainly didn't plan to go in against someone and beat them down in the first round or anything, but the 15 to 1 hit ratio (more or less) seemed a bit lopsided.

He knew that it was my first sparring time, and I didn't ask but instead assumed (I know what they say about assuming) that he'd mostly be blocking my punches and giving me one here and there to keep me on my toes.

Earlier in the night he was demonstrating with another experienced boxer how if you just keep hitting someone in their body constantly, they have a hard time giving you a good hard punch. I found that tactic to be effective, but I was on the receiving end.
