Petition for Manny to wear punchers gloves when he fights Mayweather

[Rip Chudd]

Do people actually believe Floyd would be able to dictate to Pacquiao on what gloves Pac gets to wear? C'mon son.

[V.WEBB]

Pac had his choice of gloves... a 5050 split...10 million for every lb over 147.

But times have changed.

He doesn't have the same market share.

Fighting lightweights in China and getting placed in a Coma drives the point home.

Hope pac gets the right gloves right socks so there will be no excuses

[BOXEO _]

This fight means nothing to me unless Manny gets to wear his gloves of choice.

[The Big Dunn]

Yeah well considering the job Manny did on Morales in the 2nd and 3rd fight compared to the punches barley hurting Morales in the first and never taking the punches myself and the fact Manny and Roach thought it was a big factor I don't see why it wouldn't be a factor and even if it wasn't,They're sanctioned gloves...I want the fight to be on an even playing field

and if the padded gloves take away damage excitement I'm 100% against it,Also if Floyd wins I don't want to hear any glove talk so the only logical way through this is to let Manny wear whatever gloves he wants

TRUE?

Interesting point about many v morales. Do you take into consideration Morales was coming off a beating by Zahir Raheem and maybe that is why the punches in the 2nd fight had more effect?

how would gloves take away any excitement? following your many/morales example, did the gloves make that fight any less exciting?

there will only be glove talk from those guys who can't swallow a loss. Dude you've been here long enough to know the deal.

Cortez was an issue for disgruntled fans, shane's age was an issue for hurt fans, the CW for Canelo, when Manny got KO'd JMM was suddenly a steroid cheat. Or the Matthysse guys who were utterly disgusting. Just don't be one of those guys, that's all I'm asking.

Look, I get your point and we can agree to disagree. I see it as a pre fabricated excuse. you are not as bad as others so I shouldn't judge you based on them.

It just sucks that NSB is inundated more with "JMM had a lucky punch or Cortez helped Floyd" rather than guys who just say "my dude lost."

[Chiboxing123]

U gonna make a petition on what kind of headgear lil floyd is allowed to use as well bro?

[Beercules]

Floyd is da best defensively and Manny won't touch him, so let Manny use his Reyes gloves.

possibly, we will never know. maybe one guy would have scored a ko, maybe their would have been more knockdowns or more instances of either guy getting hurt.

those are all legit things to complain about. its not like complaining about socks. you seem to be against fair fights for some reason? why? Why does one boxer need to have everything his way? that's like playing monopoly but one player already starting with boardwalk and park place. kinda a big advantage don't you think? Why not start fair and square?

if making your opponents fight with pillow gloves doesn't matter why does floyd do it? it obviously has some effect so why should he get full credit. You should be a fan of boxing and not a boxer. It's a b-tich move and you know it. Just fess up. You can still like floyd and not defend every single thing he does.

Fight means nothing because Pacquiao can't win using identical equipment.

yup gloves are nothing but floyd willing to pay more than half a million dollars just for a pair of gloves. lol
