There was a post up like this a few weeks ago, so i'll basically just say what i said then.
Dont worry about it, it happens, think of it as being a goalkeeper in football, you dont cry and feel **** everytime a ball goes past you...
You should focus entirely on how you managed to get hit with a bad shot, visualise yourself seeing the shot coming and you moving and countering and knocking your opponent down.
Go over it in the gym with a friend, go over counters to punches that you know you get caught with a lot.
Thats my advice...my oppinion... -
it feels like ****... but its all in ur head just ignore it bro...
i got careless with this guy that was greener than me i was just ****in around with him since i always ****** him up... and he landed a perfect left hook... and i got the title full headgear... my legs just went away... i remember seein black just when he landed that punch...... and landed in my ass... all the gym just got quite... lol...
but the dude payed for it 2 days later...
hahaa
and till this day that dude still mentions that sparin... it was back in 06'... and since i aint really talk **** i just ignored his ass but he knows whats upComment

Don't be sensitive. There are a ton of reasons why you might go down in sparring. Consider it a chance to show your heart. I got knocked out in an amateur fight a long time ago. Who cares? I know I can fight and if it happens, getchu some "get back". Use it as motivation.Comment

If you spar long enough you will get knocked down. Most knockdowns in sparring I see tend to happen because people are off balance, not necessarily shots that hurt people.
I have been knocked down in sparring early on. Seen videos of Tyson, DLH all kinds of great fighters get knocked down. If you spar with someone good enough it tends to happen.Comment

I caught a liver shot several weeks ago; it wasn't that bad, but i had to take a knee. It was a good shot on his part, but it was my fault for not focusing. I felt his body shots so i let him hit me, so i can counter, but he snuck in a tight liver shot when i wasn't concentrating.Originally posted by setza View Post
I was beating him 3-1 rounds, but we wanted to go one more for good measure. That's when he got me.Comment
