    What a bad joke NSAC is. breaking it's own safety rules for no legitimate reason whatsoever.

      Will this change the betting odds?

        the fact that theyre blowing this up is comical. If youve ever boxed before you know that the difference of 2oz literally is unnoticeable. Obviously theyre not the same but the padding distribution is exactly the same.

        let me put it like this. If i put a blindfold on you and punched you in the face as hard as i can with an 10oz glove and the punched again just as hard with an 8oz. youd wouldnt be able to differentiate between the two.

        i get it though, they need to do everything they can to make the casuals believe that connor has a better chance now. wont make a difference for floyd either. his only k.o. at 147 was damn near 10 years ago with ortiz standing there like a dummy with his hands down. unless he stops him from body shots this fight is going 12.

            They're breaking everything now, looking hypocritical as hell.

              If you can hurt somebody with 8oz gloves, you can hurt them with 10oz gloves. It's not a big deal. It's only a big deal to MMA fans who think 10oz boxing gloves are pillows. They think Conor's vaunted KO-power will be reduced while wearing 10oz gloves, but boxers like GGG & Lemieux HAVE NO TROUBLE DESTROYING PEOPLE with 10oz gloves on. Guys get hurt while sparring with even bigger gloves on. If you can punch, you can punch.
