    For most of boxing history this is actually standard practice - Armstrong, Greb, Louis, Johnson, SRR, etc. Sometimes they will do 2, 3 or even more before an actual relevant fight.
    You don't go with 100+ wins without facing a lot of cans and such.


    But it tune up fights have become less and less of a practice.

    cotto vs margo was not a 50/50 fight, search back on this forum or look up the odds, margo was supposed to get eaten by cotto/
