It depends whether you find it beneficial or not man.
If you feel, ok he's going hard on me, but I can handle it and I'll improve because of it, then let the punches rain.
If you feel, this guy is just hurting me, then perhaps you need to review your situation.

Sometimes coaches don't take well to star pupils. I'm far from a star pupil myself, but I always listen and pay attention to what I'm taught so I'm "top of the class" so to speak. This sometimes makes coaches resentful (perhaps out of fear you will exceed their achievements?) Then they want to "put you in your place" in sparring.

So whatever you think bud. Is it helping you?

Yea I think it is helping me as a fighter Donny. Plus my trainer knows how frustrated I am with not getting santioned fights so it does help to be able to let it fly every now and again.

It just isn't making me too popular with a few members who tend to be lazy. lol

Blood, who cares about being popular anymore?

I used to get so concerned about people liking me I just stessed myself out. In boxing if you spar me now you get the same controlled pace, hard but not overly so. If you are better than me I'll be the same, if you're not as good I'm not slowing down.
Screw them.

I can honestly say that when i turn professional I'l work as hard as I possibly can. If I turn into some John Ruiz or Jake LaMoTTa figure and people hate me. Screw Them too/
