yeah thats good advice. i have alot of experience in sparring. my advice to u is anytime u throw a punch, roll your shoulder over and hit your selfelf in the face with your own shoulder. your head should already be tucked in a bit and ur chin down, so when u punch u roll your shoulder and hit yourself in the face, your shoulder coming up enough to properly protect your jaw. ur jaw/chin needs to be protected at all times no matter what. even if u are attacking, countering, or blocking. keep your chin down, and never look at your oppoents face when sparring, look just under it at his chest area instead of his face or hands. this alone is very important because it will make sure your chin is down, and u can see his kicks and movements much better while still being able to see his hands. eventually u will get so used to seeing how people move, u can see shots coming at u before they hit u and u can counter attack or evade or whatever.
