    When you reach a certain level of punch power, the gloves you wear aren't going to factor into the equation that much.

    It's probable that they prefer the comfort and protection over the minute increase in punch power they would get from Reyes gloves.

        I think that is mainly why Vitali switched over from Reyes to Grant after so many years. At his age another injury could end his career so the added protection over added power is more important.

        I heard the new Everlast MX glove was a better alternative to the Reyes but don't know much about it.

              i know

              i excused myself from that thread as soon as i saw Eaner post REAL FACTS. no need to say anything else. its funny how people talk to Eaner as if he doesn't know WTF he's saying when in reality he was part of MARGARITO's MANAGEMENT TEAM

              like dude, seriously

              STFU and listen to the man. why are you going to try and refute stuff he says? that's ridiculous

                Actually grants are great gloves, if you think Reyes gives you 30 second KO power than you must have never boxed. Grants provide hand protection while still allowing you to hit hard. HW's have used them though. Some include Tyson and Lennox Lewis.
