tony blaze- i no thats ur opinion but that to me is not showing a female fighter respect.
Spodge-"Personally I prefer sparring females as its normally what you can land rather than an ego sparring session."
thats so true from what a lot of guys have said to me....
my old gym (and my new, just i havent been there as long to truely comment) was always sparring guys and girls.... whats important is weight divisions not so much sex, plus if an experienced fighter and muay thai athlete cant't adapt and still be challenged then they have much more learning to do. my old coach always said if you are sparring with someone less experienced than you or much lighter or heavier work on something, turn it into an oppurtunity to try out some new combos, or practice your counters etc....
