    It's about the hand speed, Pac's much faster...but doubt they'll give FM what he wants..WBA 'll claim safety issue...

      I have no allegiance in the Mayweather/Pacquiao stakes so I'm not hating on Mayweather. But both Mosley and Ortiz both wore Grants who were previously both Reyes fans. People seem to have forgotten this!

      As reported earlier by BoxingScene.com's Ronnie Nathanielsz, WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao met with Top Rank's Bob Arum and signed off on a deal to f


      Mayweather doesn't want people with power to wear Reyes against him. I'm certain it's in he's contracts.

            anytime. I was in the middle of all this with Shane. IMO he made a mistake he should have gone with the glove he's been most successful with and that's the Reyes

              If they do go with 10oz. gloves, I wanted to share some side by side images of which glove each fighter will be wearing.

              Mayweather: Unless he makes a drastic change, he will be wearing Grant gloves.

              Cotto: I believe made the switch to Everlast MX gloves for the Foreman fight, and has worn them since.

                The outcome would have been the same IMO. Shane doesnt have the smarts or the skills to defeat Mayweather. If anyone thinks that Shane wearing Reyes gloves would have allowed him to land more than the 2 measly punches in the 2nd round they are fooled.

                Fact is Mosley wore Grants vs Mora & Pacquiao, did they also make him wear Grants?

                    you not follow along or something?

                    where did I say he was forced to wear Grants?

                    and if you think glove don't make a difference you're foolish in your belief

                    those punches Shane did land on Mayweather would have had far more impact on Mayweather had they been the horse hair Reyes

                      one of the many posts I put in here

                      Mosley had his choice I know this for a fact

                      and what people seem to forget

                      he is trained by ****m who is a big Grant proponent

                      Now Ortiz was told he had to wear Grant from what I have been told
                      so out of this where did you get the notion I said he was forced?
