Tim Welchtrainer of ex-champion UFCShauna O'Malleyshared his opinion about sparring Shavkat Rakhmonov (18-0) and Ian Garry (15-0), which has long gone viral on social networks, Sports.kz reports.
“It must be said that they did not spar in a cage where Garry could run around all day: in the gym he was worried about bumping into one of his partners. So it's difficult to say anything here. In general, this sparring was more like kickboxing training. To be honest, it was an easy sparring in which Shavkat did not put much pressure on Garry. Perhaps because there really is respect between them. In this sparring, Shavkat read Garry’s punches well, but at the same time he himself knows very well how to hit people, says Welch.
