Why does Floyd prefer 10oz gloves?

[GTR]

Please shed some light:

We all know Pac is known to prefer 8oz cletos (the punchers glove) for KO power, and never relies on points or judges scorecards to ensure him a victory. Whats the story behind Floyds 10oz Grants?

All fighters want all the advantages they can get.

E.g.

Manny fought Cotto at a catch weight.

He wants to fight Manny with 10 oz gloves to take away from Pacquiao's punching power advantage. He'll do anything for the advantage.

Extra protection for his fragile hands

[barafranca]

As if picking a very early date in March 13 is not enough advantage for him. Now he is thinking on having advantage on the gloves as well.

Floyd wants 10 oz gloves for 3 reasons...

a) Respect for PAC's power

b) Floyd has brittle hands

c) It aids Floyd's defense when he has to block or parry the punches. A bigger glove covers more area, especially those Grants.

His hands are notoriously brittle.
