-------------------------------------------------

For more context about the upcoming fight, it is a 3x3min, with head gear on, happening in 1 month time.

I self trained myself for 3 months before joining a boxing gym. I've been training at the gym for 1 month now. My coach asked me recently if I wanna compete and I said sure.

My cardio is OK, mit work and bag work is alright, but the problem is that I always have the lower hand in sparring. Everyone in the gym is taller than me also, with a longer reach.

With everyone I spar with in the advance class (first time taking it today), they landed more hits on me, and i might be a little concussed. I can only land a few clean punches on them. My coach says i don't look ready too, based on how I spar.

1. So my question is should I compete or train for a few months more?
2. If I should compete, what should I do to improve within a short time frame, also have to lose 5kg. I can be committed.
3. How can I improve when sparring?
4. When sparring, do I look at their gloves? Chest?
