    I heard it would be 20 x 20, if true then the standard ring size.
    Think Mayweather should have demanded a 24 x 24 ring?.. like Leonards camp did in the first fight against Hearns.

    8 oz gloves too, but I'm sure Mayweather will favour 10 oz because of his brittle hands... I really think 154 would suit Mayweather better!

    Anyway I'm going for an early guess here, 24 x 24 when Floyd meets Manny!

    Well, if Pac meet Floyd he should ask for a 16x16 ring. (Not impossible as it was used before: Morales-Jamili) :lol:

    Anyways, 20x20 is just right.

    It's not the size of the ring, it's how fast you can run in it.

    Well apparently Mayweather demanded a 30 x 30 against Pacquiao when it was going to be scheduled for March 13th... not sure if this is rumors though, sounds like it!

    We all know Mayweather fights best in the middle of the ring, so the bigger the ring the less likely Mosley can cut him off. Think Mosley would be beating him in a 16 x 16 though.. and Mayweather wins a wide UD if 24 x 24 so 20 x 20 is just right I reckon.

    A bigger ring will always benefit a defensive mobile fighter...a small ring will always benefit a pressure fighter...

    I doubt they're going with 8 oz gloves. Mayweather, and I don't blame him, has to watch out for those hands. Brittle hands VS iron skull. 10 ouncers.

    Ring size will be insignificant.

    :rofl. His only decent win? What planet are you living on. I suggest you go watch Mayweather V Corrales. You are clearly clueless.

    I think ring size is set in Nevada at 20x20 so it's not even an option for a bigger ring. I may be wrong.

    why would 154 suit mayweather better, thats a stupid statement! mosley has boxed at 154 many times while mayweather has easily made 147 for his last few bouts! mayweathers best boxing weight is 147 i.m.o

    A bigger ring of course benefits Mayweather in only one way: It will give Floyd plenty of room to squirm and roll around in agony after being put to sleep for the first time of his career.
