Anyone know what size gloves both fighters would be wearing, im assuming floyd will want 10 oz (due to his brittle hands) and mosley will want 8 oz (due to his power).
I wouldnt be suprised if they had 10 oz cuz floyd is the one calling all the shots in this fight. But i was just wondering.
that one really perflex me...some posters are saying 8 oz gloves is the regular size for ww so why is there a need for pac to demand for it and for floyd to agree?
same reaosn pac demand floyd makes 147 or pay 10 mil for each pound over
10 oz is the standard size for welterweight gloves in Nevada. As I said before though, I'm sure I remember reading that Floyd had agreed to 8 oz for the Mosley fight and has only used 10 oz twice - against De La Hoya and Hatton.
i see so it all depends on where the fight is...no big deal imo

He agreed to fight Manny with 8 oz...why would he want 10 oz against Shane?

the padding is spread out tho. its the cut of the glove. its like reyes glvoes are cut more to be more of a punching glove while winning is more padded feel but they both weigh the same. its the cut of the glove. like MMA gloves weigh less not because they are jus smaller but alot of stuff is cut out for grappling but they serve the same purpose as 8oz boxing gloves.
all gloves feel different when you punch and get hit.
ok i understand now, thanks greenk

they are using 8oz gloves. all WW fights are 8 oz i believe and the ounces dont effect floyd hands being brittle or not its the cut of the glove meaning if his hands were bothing him he would use a certian brand like winning. 8 10 12oz wont make a difference if his hands are hurt. floy dhands havent bothered him in years reason why he hasnt been using winnin and been using grant gloves
interesting........
but i thought if it had more weight 8oz-10oz that meant it had more padding, guess i was wrong.
