        That is interesting.

        Jeff Sims also served as Muhammad Ali's sparring partner. Ali grew a mustache later in his year to cover a split lip courtesy of one of them sessions.

                  1. Antonio Margarito: Margarito said he bloodied Oscar twice, and that Oscar's camp wanted him to go very easy on him, while Oscar was allowed to do his worst. Margarito was generally angered by the sparring, he indicated.

                  That's so Oscar. Margarito probably lost it and started treating it like a real fight and put a beating on Oscar.

                    Great idea. There are so many sparring stories out there.
