Okay, first sparring match logged was between me and my best friend in our studio. He's naturally better than me at fighting but we both got banged up pretty badly. It started off as a stare-down which ended with him trying to fake me out. His plan back-fired when I took advantage of it and attempted a skipping side kick into his rib cage, knocking him back a couple of steps. After that it was back to stare-down. This time, I tried to overrun his "position" but it ended with me getting a torn upper lip. He executed a well timed jumping back kick that landed across my face, owww. I had to turn in for the day because of my injury. Since it wasn't a knockout, my friend considers it a draw but I consider it a loss on my part mainly because I was careless and ran into it. I await a rematch with him in the near future twisted .
