Boxers should have lighter gloves....Its ridiculous

[lennon]

These guys are fightin each other with fkin pillows, it a mockery to the sport when u consider in the old days it was more or less barefisted.
The guys dont get hurt in there anymore with those damn pillows, this is why MMA will surpass boxing in a year or so
Because boxing has turned soft and everyone knows it

mma gloves and boxing "pillows" produce the same force.

dont the heavier gloves allow boxers to punch harder. One mans bone is little different to anothers so for example if pac hit bare nuckle flush it would brake his hands after a few punches thus he wouldnt punch as hard to conserve his hands. (maybe this is my drunken theory)

so you want ring deaths,more brain damaged fighters and less action????this is a gentleman sport not some barbaric blood fest

I totally agree. The object isn't to kill your opponent in boxing.

[Kelly Robinson]

damn, u serious? Have u ever been in the ring?

It is babaric, you come in the ring with the intention to knock the other man out of consciousness.

Its a game of hurt

How anyone can call it a gentleman's sport is beyond me

It is a man's sport. What's your definition of a gentleman's sport? Golf, polo,...

IMPULSE!

If boxing gloves were the size of mma gloves, the fights would have to change from 12 rounds to 6 rounds, and fighters would get cut 100x's more often

IMPULSE!
look it up

99.9% of MMA fighters can't throw proper punch and the speed is not even comparable, now you're trying to say the 4oz of difference between the gloves is going to make a huge difference?

Keep reaching.
