@JiN
With all due respect JiN, I think you're doing the guy a disservice by letting him win. He's going to be facing off against people that are potentially better than you, meaning he's going to need to keep his nerves sharp and alert - I'm worried that going easy on him might lure him into a false sense of security which could be disastrous once he fights for real. Though that's strictly based on my experience. My arnis guro made it a point never to hold back when we fought - and he already had a rep for being a brutal sparring partner - so my circumstance might not be the same case as yours.
On that note, would you like to line up for a spar one of these days? just a light practice match - I'll bring my gloves and mouth guard. Your Taekwondo versus my Boxing, or arnis XD.
Just go easy on meh - I haven't been in practice on account of family duties.

We had the Adresort (a small two-seater pickup) at the shop to have the tires inflated due to low pressure before bringing it to the hospital to visit a relative. A couple of hours later that evening, the left front tire was completely deflated, while the right front tire and spare were sagging.
WHAT. THE. FRACK.
We had to take a cab home yesterday, and we came back the next morning to bring the tires to a vulcanizing shop. The weird part is that when the guys checked the tires, the couldn't find anything wrong with them, and I specifically remember checking their pressure BEFORE we parked at the hospital with two separate pressure gauges. And guess what - this car was also a NISSAN, the same brand as the one that caught fire last week...with me in it.

I find myself agreeing with you in this case.
