    you are a super flea so you do not have any power to hurt any one thus you do not need any head gear

      that is what amateurs usually do,are you intersted in learning how to punch properly and be a boxer or are you just fly swatting

            Just spring the money for some headgear, sparring without it seems pretty dumb IMO

              If you box properly against a larger guy, theres no reason why you can't hang in there and do well. Especially if they arent as skilled as you.

                  what is the use of sparring with someone if they are not as good as you,what are you going to learn,how are you going to get better,when i spar i want someone who is bigger but just as good and as fast as me,this way i can work on my slipping and moving,work body shots all the necessary tactics,so when i fight someone my own weight i will feel a lot stronger

                    wear the headgear. might save you from damage if you clash heads, or from breaking your hand on someones skull.
