Once again, I stopped by the De La O dojo to check out the intense training of Henry Corrales and Melissa Steele. They’re both fighting at Long Beach Fight Night this Sunday. It was sparring day at the training camp. It was an intense 2 hours as the fighters took on different sparring partners every 5 minutes. There was a break at the hour mark but overall, it was a test of heart and endurance as the sparring partners went hard. To no one’s surprise, both fighters never gave up and even dominated majority of the sparring.
