But Scrap, would giving it a rest even help, if the first time I sparred, and caught my first punch to the nose, I started bleeding.

I understand if I caught a vicious blow.. but it was a simple jab, like almost a tap.

Unless it was some sort of pre-boxing injury.. But I havent even fist fought for years.


.. and if I were to give sparring rest, how long would you suggest?
