"I don't know about anyone else, but for me it's easiest to get in the ring than to spar. Because in sparring we study the opponent, who we're going to box with in the ring. To study the opponent and work on it is very difficult. And it's easier to get into the ring. Because we already know approximately the opponent's technique. In other words, we are already ready for this fight. Therefore, for us, training with sparring opponents, work in the gym, are much more difficult than the final fight itself," - said the boxer.
