Just wondering, did Pacquiao-Clottey use 8 oz. or 10 oz. gloves? Pac's gloves looked a little bigger than usual to me. I am not sure of the rule in Texas, so help me out people.
That's what I was thinking since no one made mention of any bigger gloves being used. The gloves last night, mainly Pac's, just seemed bigger than usual.
It depends on the state man but all around the world it is generally accepted that welters use 8oz gloves, 10oz starts at 154 usually.
No, 8 oz. is the standard for 147 lb fights everywhere else that I know of but Nevada. Nevada is the only comission which actually gives you a choice between 10 oz. and 8 oz. gloves for fighters all the way down to 135.
