    'One concession Manny Pacquiao did not have to make in the negotiations leading to the agreement was which brand of 8-ounce gloves he would have to wear.

    A last minute demand by Floyd Mayweather prior to his May 2014 fight against Marcos Maidana forced the Argentine to switch from his usual thinly-padded Everlast MX gloves, which the Money team found unsuitable, to Everlast Powerlock gloves.

    According to Dan Rafael of ESPN, for the 2015 May 2 fight, Mayweather will wear Grant brand gloves, designed with extra padding on the knuckles to protect the hands. Pacquiao will use his usual Mexican made Cleto Reyes gloves, which carry less padding (horse hair, actually) in the knuckles and are considered to be “punchers’” gloves.'
