I figure it would be fine. I mean it could even be better to train in what you actually fight in.

I haven't been training long(about 2 weeks) and I just use the different headgear at the gym to get a feel of what I should get for myself.

I only train in competition headgear 7 days before a fight, because theres no point in sparring in a barly padded open face headgear for a whole year because it doesnt protect ****.

i only have one pair of headgear and its my competition...it dont matter its all good....i dont get hit anyway tho....lol

It would take a lot of beer to make sparring in open-face headgear sound like a good idea to me.

I only spar in my competition headgear... But that guy makes a good point why not use the protection while your practicing...

I think i'll start using my protective one again now that i actually think about it.

i used to spar with it to nothing (bought it 2005 dont know if they got new padden or some new layout) but the 1 i had got hard on front cause of the gel lol

I always spar with my comp. headgear on...I actually like it better than a training headgear

i dont know what the point is with those open face headgears! the ones that amateurs use. they are so pointless and offer no protection whatsoever.the only thing they have is slight protection against a hook, and im not sure if they even have enuf padding, its a rort.
