    Why do fighters use different make gloves?

    I remember when pacquiao was made to use grant gloves against morrales and he blaimed his loss because he didn't use reyes(punchers gloves). Also I heard mosley was made to wear Grant gloves by floyd, why? Then in the khan-malinaggi I remember some1 saying why is khan using reebok gloves.

    So I have 2 questions:

    1. Why do fighters use different type of gloves, afterall they are all made out of leather right?

    2. If they are different what advantages do each give, like I know reyes are said to be 'punchers gloves', but what about grant,everlast,reebok etc.

    Amir Khan is sponsored by Reebok so he makes money by wearing their apparel. Grant is good for boxers with fragile hands and the design makes it good for blocking punches.
