(Dan Rafael) 8 oz. gloves to be used by both Pacquiao and Margarito!

[starkiller]

If you don't know the difference between 10 and 8 oz gloves you are pathetic.

Stop blowing Margarito off.

[BostonGuy]

Did Rafael state what color the gloves will be? For Pac, I'm guessing "red" and Margarito "black."...

[STREET CLEANER]

Pac speed will benefit from this. Possibly Margo being the natural bigger man might have more thud in his punches

[letsgobrady]

don't all ww fight with 8 oz gloves?

[ИATAS]

don't all ww fight with 8 oz gloves?

no and this is 150, which is normally 10oz.

[STRUGG]

i hope MARGARITO.....has NO.......cement option with his gloves

[letsgobrady]

no and this is 150, which is normally 10oz.

but at ww they usually use 8 oz right?

[DR.ORGYY]

Benefits both....................

It helps Pac more than Margarito. Margarito isn't a great power puncher. Instead his punches seem to add up and take a toll on a fighter(probably plaster)as the fight goes on. It will help Marg a bit but he won't be able to get far enough into the fight for it to take effect on his opponent. Manny on the other hand is an electric puncher with great power that has translated very well to higher weights(mainly because he is so fast that opponents don't see it coming). He will be knocking Margarito out, under 8.

so now when a catch weight fight happens at 150 they will wear 10oz
and it benefits both!
