Do we have a timline on boxing gloves ? Can someone explain to me if the gloves used by someone like Sonny Liston was less padded than the ones used by Lennox Lewis or 90s boxers ?? And how much so ? What say you, Classic ??

I don't know much about the topic but I figure that fighters themselves requested more padded gloves over time and standards changed. I know that Holyfield requested bigger gloves for the first fight with Lewis.
