Never be shy to tell your sparring partner to turn it down a notch. I see guys agreeing beforehand to take it easy then one guy who's ego is too much starts to be more aggressive and the other guy matches it instead of just simply asking to knock that shit off. This is how you go home from sparring with not that much pain to going home and laying in bed all day with an ice pack.
That makes so much sense. I've been both types that he described while sparring, and I sparred against both types. Seeing the champ explain it like that, makes me wish I listened to this advice earlier in life
