    I am well bro, hope you are also, yeah only a week away, still got a good feeling.

    I think Khan's handspeed and movement will shock Maidana who has never been in with a guy as fast as Khan plus these 8oz gloves are only going to make Khan faster.

    Naa they are full Reebok, Reebok have a full range of gloves, plus Khan's gloves are hand made from Reebok.

    They always do, so why is this posted? Not to be an ass, but wouldn't it be news if the fight was with 10 ounce gloves? Seems you're confusing a bunch of novices.

    The fight is in Las Vegas, and the NSAC has a rule in order that states fights above 135 are to be with 10 ounce gloves. However, they amended the rule in 2008 after Arum met with them and persuaded them to change their policies prior to Cotto-Margarito. Now junior welterweights and welterweights are allowed to wear 8 ounce gloves if both sides agree on them. If they can't agree on glove size, then the fight will be fought with 10 ounces.

    Custom made? Are they made to be more of a puncher's glove for him then?

    Yes they are starting to, the ones Khan is using in his last 2 fights are wider and flatter than the ones before, more of a puncher look than before, still not fully puncher gloves.

    Spot on. This is the reason that Pac has always worn 8oz Reyes gloves since Morales-PaC 1.
