    Is it true that pac elected to use 6oz gloves for his fight with Oscar ?!?!

    If so, this has got to be one of the stupidest decision made in boxing in the last 10 years ..

    There's no way in hell the boxing commissions would let them. Didn't they make it mandatory for 147 to use 10oz.

    I thought it was 8 oz, not 6 oz.

    But still its kind of dumb that he expects to hurt someone 20 pounds bigger with a solid chin and don't expect some fire back.

    you would think pac would want 10 oz gloves because he doesn't stand a chance of hurting oscar and with pac's lac of defense it could only end badly for him .

    If its 6oz gloves either one of em will get a hand injury, broken faces, coma, brain damage or killed, 60% chance on Pac and 30% on Hoya.... and 10% both.
