I never understand this? He gets better experience sparring then fighting opponents he will beat easy. Its clear he doesnt care about padding his rec with easy wins and I for one think its very refreshing to see
sparring only does so much though. its a different experience on a real stage.
for example, you could practice against professional football players but just be on the practice squad. if you eventually make the team, your first few games out there arent going to be a comfortable thing. they will have to get used to it.

Explain to me the difference? I have no doubt he has guys who are told to go as hard as they can as if it was a real fight. Dealing with atmosphere and pressure sure he gets all that in the amateur fighting for world and olympic medals.
I get what your saying about it being a risk but if hes ready now there is no point having him in with guys hell be winning every second of every round.
