    NSAC Have approved Amir Khan's requests to wear Reebok Gloves. Joe Cortez will be the Referee.

    Cortez doing Khan/Maidana probably means he won't do Hopkins/Pascal. (thank god)

    Didn't Maidana want Reyes gloves instead?

    Seriously, Khan needs to put a clause in his Reebok contract saying he doesn't have to wear their gloves. They're almost as bad as the BBE or Lonsdale ones we see.

    Reebok's are shitty padded gloves. He needs the Reyes man!

    I'm not really quite sure why he doesn't use them then. I'm sure Freddie would have addressed the issue if it would make a substantial difference.

    There will be an improvement anyway, since they're fighting with 8oz Gloves this time roung.

    Aren't fights below LMW always fought with 8oz gloves? So won't be any difference, there were just some rumours that Khan had asked for 10oz gloves.

    The NSAC Rules
    Khan always wears 10oz. Ever since that loss, he's been using 10oz.
