    if you were a fighter would you Spar with Margarito?

    Knowing what we think we know about him, if your a fighter would you fly down to Mexico for several weeks and spar with him to get him ready for his fight with Cotto?

    Especially if your a prospect who may have a bright future in this sport?
    I know sparring partners get paid but they dont make that much and my question is since he is a "known" cheater why are all these guys like Austin Trout etc... willin to spar with him? especially when you hear Roach falsely accuse Margarito of breaking some kids eye socket in sparring which I think is also a made up story

          But if your a prospect with a good looking future why would you risk it?

              With head gear and big gloves I would be fine. Anyways most of these pro boxers take it slow in sparring in fear of getting hurt before fight night.

                You do realize that headgear doesnt really make a big difference right? the gloves do but the headgear sometimes is worse than sparring with out depending on the brand but in no way does it give you an ability to take shots better.

                    I have done boxing and it sure helped me. Boxers should try winning head gear.
