    Yes, Cotto turned down the 8oz gloves and it makes perfect sense.

    1. Cotto is used to fighting with 10oz gloves and he carried his power to 154.
    2. It protects Cotto's face a lot more.
    3. It diminishes Floyd's power to the point Cotto can pressure without being worried about the fire coming back.
    Mayweather's jab to the stomach will put an end to any thought of agression..

            First bad move on Team Cotto's part. I mean, now the plan of Money breaking his hands from hitting Cotto too much is out the window.

                You're fighting at 154, you use the mandated glove size there. We don't know who this favors, Mayweather would be quicker with 8oz gloves, Cotto might hit harder. Most interesting out of that interview was that Mayweather said he forced 10oz gloves vs Hatton. Never knew that.

                  That's not true...

                  Shane walked thru Cotto's punches like smoke...but he couldn't walk thru Floyd's shots...

                  Mosley had Cotto running...but was getting thrown around by Mayweather.

                  Everybody that fights him is surprised how strong he is..

                  Margarito is not stronger than Mayweather..

                  Was Tony able to throw Shane around the ring??
