Anyone sparred a pro boxer as an amateur?

[FlatLine]

no but I sparred two boxers who would later become world champions after they turned pro. doesn't really count because they were amateurs and I had more experience than them at the time we sparred.

I recently watched a 42y/o former amateur probably middlewight, spar with an undefeated, nationally ranked professional cruiserweight prospect.
Boxing lesson.

Not in the literal sense, I'm referring to the boxers nickname.

Ok, bluntly put;

Anthony Dirrell?

Deantay Wilder spars against old shot middleweights as well as fighting them in the pro game!?

Edit: thought you said heavyweight not cruiserweight. Joke ruined

I sparred a pro who had won the golden gloves novice and open a couple times. when we sparred i got ****y and dropped my hands and he hit me with 1 2's and i would jab and move . he was like 10-9 as a pro.

Hahaha no! Bluntly put it was Harry Joe Yorgey. Guy was a monster back then.

I sparred a dude that's a pro. Not a very good pro, but even the bad pros are tough. He was so hard to hit it was fun though. He fought Mayweather too so it was interesting.

I've sparred two active pros 1 that's a journeyman at 3-5 and the other is ranked top 10 in the uk the journeyman was ok and i felt I gave as good as I got , the better guy was class he was constantly on me and knew what I was going to throw before I did

I sparred Micheal Carbaja (of course he was going light on me i was like 16 17 at the time) and right after Micheal got into a fist fight with his brother and fucked em up. LOL
