And about Sergio's hunger, well he will need it, because Dinero de Vaca is going to tax that ass!

That's a mistake people do, they think headgear is like some kind of video game cheat code where you're head is protected from being hurt. Wrong, it still hurts the same with or without it. You're just protected from cuts and bruises. I was told this years ago from some old guys at a boxing gym in the Bronx[not the video game analogy].
and IMO, headgear attracts more brain damage than no headgear. It slows down your head movement and you can sometimes lose sight of your opponent when you try keep a low chin so you end up walking onto shots you would normally evade.
