When sparring do pros or even amateurs try to knock each other out?

well yeah the way u practice is the way u perform but they dont do it with anger they just do it so they get better if your sparing partner wants to hurt u like really hurt u then he aint a good partner shouldnt spar with ppl that r like that bc in your gym ppl around u make you better so most likely its for training only

Timbo92,

All the time, you ever hear the old saying "Philly Gym Wars"? Those guys back in the day and still would go all out in sparring. Not just only in Philly does this take place but gyms all over the world. This is a great sport with huge egos and a lot of fighters are very territorial about their gyms.

Great question Timbo.

Of coarse...see mike tyson sparrings. youtube.

Yes all the time both.
