I always see boxers wearing the groin guard that wraps around your waist. Why don't they use the cups, i feel like it's more confortable and if they fight with it on, it should make sense to use it in sparring too? But surely there is a reason for it. I'm guessing its because body one gives some more protection against body shots?

I'm fighting this Sat at 132lbs and my opponent is like 6'0 while im 5'7. I havent really fought anything that tall so just wanted to analyse some great fights where the shorter boxer beat the taller one. I only know Tank vs Barrios.
