Buen día, encontré que sparring puede quedar en inglés, pero no me queda claro en la parte de persona "sparring". ¿Quedaría así?

Muchas gracias. Es para un contexto de español de Latino América.

Explanation:
Yo lo dejaría en inglés y en cursiva, como indica el DRAE, especialmente en el caso que indicas. En los otros que aparezcan en tu texto, podría ser una opción decir algo como "entrenamiento".
