I know a few amateur MMA fighters who compete and they do not wear head gear at all.
Were you sparing or were you competing? There is a difference.

Head gear depends on the state. Ga used to not require it when I was ammy, now they do tho. Some states require 6 oz gloves now I think, all states require shin guards. U used to didn't have to wear head gear n had 4 oz gloves when I was ammy. Now they changed the law and u do have to wear head gear and 6 oz gloves I believe. I was 2-1 ammy, shit was fun af but it was like 10 years ago.
I could still get an ammy fight now thru my gym, but there's monsters coming up now. In my day it wasnt as popular but cole Miller and his brother had a lot of success.
