I recently read an article from 8/2006 (http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/spt/stories/081306dnspoholyfield.1fc5a93.html) about holyfields return bout against jeremy bates that said holyfield would be fighting with 12 ounce gloves. correct me if im wrong, but dont heavyweights wear 10 ounce gloves? I find 12 ounce gloves to be absurd considering that until the early 80s heavweights would regularly wear 8 ounce gloves. Any clarification on this would be appreciated. nychitman
