    Definitely makes a difference, it's the reason certain fighters love Reyes over other brands.

    Morales liked Winning because of the fit and issues he had with his hands. Figueroa the same thing, two hand surgeries later and he wears Winning now.

    Everlast is the most popular brand on the planet and their MX version is their "Mexican" style of boxing gloves which are popular by many fighters. Including Donaire, Rios, Cotto and Maidana.

    I think it would have made a difference and I don't know if he would have hurt Floyd but the chances would have increased.

    Also, each glove is hand made, so you will get differences in the gloves even from the same make and brand. Anyone who has owned a pair of Reyes knows it takes time to "break in" because they are always different.

    You also negotiate gloves in the contract, not hours before the fight. Floyd wanted to establish his "A side" like he said and he did it. Maidana should have called his bluff.

      PRPP
      Well, if you read my break down I said that Collazo threw his game plan out the window after round 2. Saying that though, you have to give Khan his props because his speed was bothering Collazo, so was his movement.

        Another biased Mexican. Your analysis was garbage and biased as always. Floyd dominated the fight on the inside and outside. Maidana smothered his own work so how do you score his punches that aren't straight as deserving to win the fight.

        You hate Floyd so much it ruined your whole analysis.

          What...the...hell...?

          He gave his take on the fight and gave credit to both fighters and the fight itself for being great. You make it sound like he spewed nothing but contempt for Floyd. Jesus.

          I love Floyd winning as much as his fans, but you're probably the type of guy that makes me want to see Floyd lose just so you take it down a notch. :smh:

            I am glad you came out and admit to being impressed with Maidana. I know we talked about it before the fight and I was trying to convince you that Maidana could make it a war and he accounted for himself well. I am proud of Chino!

              anything that doesn't involve gargling Floyd's nuts is 'hate' to Brandish

                This would be a much better place if everyone was as unbiased and objective as Brandish

                  I find it quite hypocritical that Latinos on this very site can use all kinds of racial put downs towards blacks and their is rarely an outcry from any non blacks on this site.

                  Broner says I can beat any race, Mexican , African, Puerto Rican, etc... And now all of a sudden Mexicans want to get mad.

                  Just admit that most of you guys who are mad at Broners comments are really just racists yourselves.

                  Three most criticized fighters on NSB : Floyd , AB and Ward. I wonder why. Lol

                  "They hate us because they ain't us"

                    that's just how it is..they hate that excellence:

                    the three grandmasters of this era are all black men:

                    1. floyd
                    2. bhop
                    3. roy

                    they know what's up thjat's why they hate day and night but floyd dusted caveman maidaina 118-110 all the fouling punches couldn't win him the fight..bow down and respect your masters.

                      you're the type of guy who's been wanting floyd to lose since he dusted jose luis castillo off. floyd is nubian excellence, he destroys the myths of black people being lazy.

                      you racists are fighting something you can't even comprehend!
