It cant be that always one boxer gets to wear the other boxers gloves just to be the same or 1 is robbed of choice. YBoxing is way too fragmented in rules and the way of enforcing them to have anything like that.

There just seems to be a bunch of different gloves nowadays and I wonder if it was always like this. Some gloves give a better advantage than others with the different types of padding.

GGG's gloves looked much better and more compact, Stevens corner really need to reevaluate his choice of gloves for future fights, those were a bad choice.

Originally posted by DannYankee09 View PostAs far as i remember as long as both fighters agreed to the weight of the gloves it was fair game to use any brand they wanted. You have to remember some boxers like padding differently some are trying to protect their hand some want to inflict the most damage they can. You wont have much of an advantage with a broken hand no matter how hard you hit.

I remember reading something a long time ago about how Roy Jones Jr. has brittle hands which is surprising because he hit like a truck at light heavyweight. Perhaps he used the more padded gloves to protect his hands and his speed added for that extra power?
