Did I break my nose sparring? (srs)

Went back to the boxing gym about a week ago to improve my fightmaxxing and did some sparring with these two guys where we all took turns doing rounds in the ring.

One of the guys I managed to block/parry most of his shots and got a few jabs and hooks in but he then caught me with a strong clean right cross which shook me up for a few seconds. Wasn't bleeding but my eyes started watering as taking shots to the nose hurts like hell.

Whenever I apply pressure to the right side of my nose I hear a slight crackling sound although nothing really painful tbh.

I really wanna go tomorrow but not sure if it's worth sparring for abit, might just do some pads and bag work.

What do you think misc?

Definitely don’t spar tomorrow. After that get checked out by at least a physician at a free clinic to see if your nose is broken/fractured whatever the case may be.

Don’t let an ego boost / adrenaline rush be the reason you do permanent damage to your body bro. People in amateur/pro boxing and MMA/UFC put their bodies’ through agony for a paycheck (or a paycheck once they turn pro), don’t put yourself through it and not get anything out in return just some advice don’t want a fellow gym bro getting hurt

Obviously don’t spar again until it’s 100, that’s like asking if you should deadlift again while your back is still tweaked

I wouldn’t call that a break tho.


Edit: deadlift might not be the best analogy, because there’s no perfect form for getting blasted in the nose lol


Edit2: just reread that there’s no pain, so you might be fine, listen to your gut on whether your g2g or not


Edit3: if you’re not confident that you can take a face shot then you will have a bad time sparring

Yeah probably best see a doctor, most of the time we do light sparring but sometimes the adrenaline kicks in and we go harder than usual.

I only do boxing as a hobby because I enjoy it while in the zone and for general cardio/well being, nowhere near good enough to become an amateur boxer though as I don't live and breath the lifestyle.

Worst that happened to me is when I first started boxing, took a hard body shot to the ribs and started stumbling. Couldn't even lay down without sharp pain and couldn't lift or train for about a month.

From that point I learnt to always keep my stance sideways and tuck my elbows in while sparring. Haven't had a major injury since tbh.

Lol the guy who landed the shot was about my height, 5'7'-5'8 so no real reach advantage. Although I've been told I have a good reach for being manlet probably cos of my long arms.

The other guy was abit taller around 5'11.

Gonna give it a rest for a few weeks, I have a bad habit of closing my eyes during sparring but the only way to get better is to actually do it.

Because they don't actually do much to prevent injury or a concussion and can reduce your vision, all they do is stop prevent cuts. I have a head guard at home but don't bother using it neither does anyone at the gym.

I only wear a mouth piece/gum shield as that's what actually essential to prevent serious injury.
