Boxing with a HRM- HELP!

My husband and I went out and got some boxing gloves and mouth guards with the intent of doing a little sparring for a good workout. We are waiting on the delivery of our bag stand and bags at the moment. My main question is this: how can I use my Polar FT4 HRM to track it? I set the wristband on the table while we sparred, and it said I burned 0 calories, even though it was tracking my heart rate at 152 when I stopped it, and we boxed long enough it should have tracked something. Does the wristband need to be closer to me, perhaps tied on my sports bra strap since I can't put it on under my glove?

Any advice would be super!
