I'm sure you've sparred before. So you know that sometimes sparring gets heated, and you get into a good scrap. Somtimes you get dropped. This was the first time out of 8 sparring sessions anyone has been dropped. And I've improved a lot since the first couple, so I think they have been productive. The point is like you say to work on what you've learned, not to drop or hurt one another , but its boxing, sometimes things like that will happen.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
