Question about the sparring in this video
In this video Rory Macdonald is sparring with the new Middle weight champion Chris Weidman. Weidman is the one without the helmet on. I realize they're probably not hitting each other that hard but why isn't Weidman wearing a helmet? Why take the risk of catching a hard shot to the head or getting your nose broken when you make so much money fighting for real? Maybe they are barely using any power.
Rory has a fight coming up this weekend so I understand why he's wearing the helmet.
