    There is a distinctive difference in the way the 2 gloves feels and for anyone who boxes regularly they will know what the difference is. So it can make a difference especially to a power puncher.

    Just because you're his lover doesn't mean everyone else is his hater.

    I'd also like to see the source.

    The fact that they're using 8 oz. gloves should tell it all

    If Floyd wanted a pillow fight, he would have demanded 10 oz. gloves, and we all know that Shane still would have took the fight

    SOURCE? Won't matter anyway, the fight I long wanted to see is happening. Still, Shane by KO.

    Demand nothing, he could have just not agreed to the 8oz and made Shane fight with the STANDARD which is 10 oz.

    I really get a kick out all of this shite . . . if it is in the contract it is in the contract . . . it does not really matter as long as both sides agree. Floyd agreed to fight oscar with all of his conditions and still won. I am sure he would have fought with his gloves but he agreed to that.

    gloves and ring size is different then catchweight though. If you want to fight for MW or WW title it should be at those weight limits or you should not be able to call yourself champ. You might still get the win and the credit for the win but you should not get the strap.

    So why did Floyd require him to use Grant if it won't make a difference?

    Ponder upon that thought ***** :silly

    I thought Mosley moved down to welter so he could were 8oz gloves as he always said and I thought 80zwere the norm
