    Why don't the Klitschko's use Cleto Reyes?

    This is just a guess, but I'd be willing to bet that if they switched to Cleto's they'd knock everyone out in about 30 seconds.


    Never used those Grant gloves myself, but they look lame and really padded. I could be wrong though. But that logo just pisses me off when I look at it.

    Wladdy should switch to Reyes for the Peter fight just so he could satisfy **** Buffman's curiosity.

    I know you love reading my posts Wladdy, wear Reyes next time ok?

    Do it for ****!!

    they are an inferior product when comes to fist protection and wlad had hurt his hands in a fight before, reyes are a smart decision for Mexican bantams, not for heavies

      Mike Tyson swore by Reyes.

      They're not an inferior product at all. They're some of the most pricey gloves out there.

        They may be a punchers glove.

        But they don't offer as much knuckle protection as Grant gloves do.

          They are pricey because they still use horse hair for padding, plus their padding is concentrated more around wrist and top of the fist area not knuckle area, they are not a good glove for a hard hitting heavy, I can't recall any recent heavy use them and for a good reason too

            Not the best for protection and I'm sure it probably isn't it but they're not the most comfortable of gloves and they don't really need them.
