When sparring for points, I tend to be passive. My classmates call me "the surgeon" because I tend to dissect things! I love to counter fight (for points) partially because in reality, I'll give up a punch to the chest if it means I can hit your head or take you down. In point sparring, we don't count takedowns, and we don't hit to the head. So I spar differently than I would fight. Therefore, I have to be more technical in my sparring than aggressive. My aggressive side would have me using my speed and strength (I'm a great deal stronger and faster than everyone who is not my sensei!).
