    face it guys its true, lets be honest, he had to reduce Maidinas power

    its a fair tactic

    Morales is a great fighter but you know he made Maidina wear those thicker gloves like he did with pacman first time round.

    It's a fair tactic hes up against a huge puncher.

    morales is **** for 6 years now and way above is ideal weight division, maidana schould have stopped him or won 10-2 in rounds, morales making this a really close fight makes him epic and there shouldnt be any excuses.

    nah but seriously gloves make a huge difference, erik morales is smart thats why he made him wear them.


    really reduces the impact much more padded gloves.

    Gloves didnt make much of a diffrence when Barrer fought Morales the thrid time did it? Or when Oscar made Floyd wear reyes in their fight, now did it?

    Am I the only one who thinks Maidana just flat out under estimated Morales, and found himself in a very tough fight when he expected an easy night?

    Glad you mention Barrera vs Morales 3rd fight cause Barrera wasn't happy to wear pillow gloves but he did it anyway just to fight Morales in the 3rd fight. I read that Barrera pillow gloves couldn't even fit his hands in which his trainers has to cut some in the inside of the gloves to make it fit well.

    IF gloves DOESN'T MATTER, why would Morales force his opponent to wear pillow gloves?

    Because its all psychological, but scientifically there's no proof that everlast gloves transfer more force than Winning.

    Barrera wore the pillow gloves in all 3 bouts with Morales, he was forced to by Morales.
