Boxers should have lighter gloves....Its ridiculous

[Potential]

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

A strawweight pro boxer could KO an MMA fighter even if the boxer was rockin' 18 ounce
gloves. Now go play wrestling with your boyfriends.

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

[shogunn]

have you ever been punched by those gloves? they can pad a boxer with actual pillows and theyd still knock someone out.

The recent complaining of soft gloves is all from floyd and his girl like insecurity of being unable to hurt OLDH compared to Manny making the same oscar say no mas. floyd crying about having 2 or 4 oz of heavier gloves..

Actually, Boxers sustain more brain injuries due to bigger gloves since they prevent a more immediate KO's, thus, allowing for continual punishment.

In a sense, it would be beneficial for Boxers to use smaller gloves because fights would end quicker.

A shock KO e.g. a hard hook to the temple, wearing light gloves, can seriously affect a boxer
