    Doubt it, Cotto forced the 10oz gloves not Mayweather

    I think he'd prefer 8oz gloves now his hand problems are no longer a issue

    Compare the Floyd who had those telagraphable right hands, who fought Ortiz, to the Floyd who had that sharp azz flashy speed that fought Cotto. Floyd's instincts arent the same, but he got fast as hell. His speed was a little bit faster than it was when he fought JMM, But it had that snap flashyness that he had when he fought Gatti. Im AYE-Okay with his speed.
