    Its called negotiating. Who in their right mind wouldn't want all the advantages in their favour? If mosley was the fighter at the top without doubt he would have pushed for things in his favour. Thats how negotiations work.

    At the end of the day Mosley accepted, live with it.

        There was no mention of why he didn't want to wear Reyes but he had the choice to wear the new Everlast MX gloves which are basically Everlast's version of Cleto Reyes gloves, he just chose not to wear them, so I doubt Mayweather forced him to not wear Reyes since Everlast has come out with basically the same type of glove.

          they didn't make the glove specifically for him.. get your head out of your ass. it was a new glove, but not one designed specifically for him. it was in the contract that he couldn't wear Cleto's. He had a choice.. but not between gloves he wanted. & maybe the Everlast are similar.. but still not Cleto's. **** knows if it would've made a difference anyway, a lot of times it does.. Mayweather probably would've hit the canvas in the round. Got wobbled a bit more and then went back to dominating like he did and still won.

            Nope its about manning-up and fighting fair brah.

            If you believe on your skilld man-up and fight fair.

            Do you see a tennis player let there opponents choose their racket?

            Do you see a race car driver let there opponent choose there car?

            Do you see a billiard player let his opponent choose his cue stick?

            It's called playing fair brah.

            You get respect if you beat the guy fair and square.

              Fact, Mosely has been a cleto reyes user. Why do you think he used Grant?

              Binggo! He was forced to in the negotiations.

                Mosely has been using Cletto Reyes for all these years an all of a sudden in this fight he had a choice between everlast , Grant and where is the Cletto option?

                So do I have to spell it to you??

                Floyd made him wear those gloves during negotiations brother.

                    It doesn't mean that, he might have just chosen not to wear the gloves. Is it unusual that he changed gloves at this stage in his career? Yes. But that doesn't mean he didn't choose to change gloves.

                    I'm pretty sure someone on Mosley's team would've made something out of it had Mosley been forced to change gloves.

                      it dosnt matter what brand of gloves shane used...he easily gassed out and had a good chance of knocking floyd down in the 2nd round...with any make or pair of gloves it wouldnt matter the fight would have still gone the same way..
