    Floyd's gloves are killing his POWER...

    I'm not sure if you guys know or not but Floyd uses gloves that are designed to protect his hands by adding more cushion inside the gloves. The last time he didn't wear them I think was when he fought oscar because oscar got to choose the gloves in that fight. Oh, and the Hatton fight because B-Hop wore the same gloves against Calzaghe and I know he wouldn't wear some pillow style gloves. Basically Floyds gloves are like pillows. So if you want to see what it's like, wrap a thin pillow around your fist and punch yourself in the face. lol

    Check out how big Floyds gloves are compared to Judahs gloves in their fight. Yet, both gloves are 8 ounce weight...

          Mayweather simply doesn't let his hands go and unleash those beautiful yet brutal combinations that he was painting Gatti,Chavez and Ndou over with.

            He uses Grant gloves (previously he used Winning, a company based in Asia whose aim is similar to Grant) because as you said, they are designed to protects the hands. This is most likely because he has fragile hands.

                  Floyd needs xylocaine and big gloves because he has brittle hands. I know xylocaine isn't illegal in Nevada, so I don't think it's a big deal; but its fact that he uses painkillers during training at least.

                    He'd probably would be more offensive at WW had he no had that problem.

                    Gotta give him props though for still managing through it though.
