Im defo not scared bro, have actually been in a few street fights but I want to improve my skill and general ability. Im only curious as the ability to keep composure from being hit in the face clean and remain calm is something I can see myself developing but thanks for the thoughtsYou're going to get your shit rocked, there's no avoiding it, so just embrace it. Start gently and see how well you take the hit before progressing to hard sparring, otherwise you'll legit get concussed lol. The more you get hit, the better you'll be at not exactly taking one, but taking one if that makes sense. You can do drills, but I personally just started turning my head a little if the punch was unavoidable to mitigate the damage a little. But I wouldn't try that unless you've been sparring for a while.
Long story short, don't be a pussy (no offence intended) and just make peace with the fact that you'll get hit until you get good enough to avoid getting hit
when sparring just remember that this is “Practice” don’t take things personal. Most Gyms will partner you up with random people so they could be a higher skill level than you or taller/larger. Just remember to move your head and maintain balance and breathe. Also have funCurious to hear discussion on this
