[M.I.C.]

I've never heard of Fighter B refuses to take Drug test therefore Fighter A is scared. Only in Tardland can logic like this exist.

I never heard the demand for ring size before, but id like to see a link.

but Manny "demanding" punchers gloves is ****in hilarious, considering he's "demanding" the same gloves he's always worn his entire career. Was he out of line in asking for the same gloves he's always worn....And, floyd always wears 8oz gloves. I dont see the problem


Also, was floyd also planning in coming in overweight?

Yes, but Floyd NEVER wears Reyes gloves. If Manny wants to wear Reyes that's fine, but requesting Floyd to do the same can be considered a "demand". Manny knows that Floyd does not prefer Reyes gloves.

Agreed. I don't care how the fight gets made. Manny could give Floyd 10%/90% PURSE split.

I just find it odd how some posters don't understand how 50/50 is fair for both fighters and debate at times. When the fight is signed, it'll be a whole other discussion.. HOPEFULLY its about boxing and not PURSES .

Purses are a part of the boxing game though. How can you discuss boxing and not purses, when the purses may very well keep the boxing from happening?

Agreed. However, some are acting as if 50/50 is out of the question. It's clear that both of these fighters are at their top of their game and have been dominant with their last string of victories. Let their fists decide who the #1 really is and if their is a rematch, winner can take 65/35.

The issue isn't about Floyd wearing Reyes or any punchers glove. It's about him demanding 10 oz gloves. Let them both pick what gloves they want. Besides Floyd is known to use 8 oz gloves, specifically in his last fight with Mosley.

10 oz is the WW standard its up to the fighters to go to 8oz.

10 oz is the WW standard its up to the fighters to go to 8oz.

Though I do know Nevada holds 10oz as the standard, unless 8oz is agreed upon by both fighters, everywhere else 8oz is standard for WW fights.

BTW: What gloves has Floyd been using at WW? 8oz or 10oz

I believe he used 8 for Shane and 10 for Bumdomir. Lemme double check.
