Why isn't the glove type more of an issue in Pac\May negotiations?

    Ignoring all the other issues and the whole 'if' question... it seems gloves isn't an issue for this fight, why? Obviously Pac\Roach will aim for KDs and\or a KO so they'll want the puncher's gloves (Reyes?). In the Maidana fight, puncher's gloves were off the table. Why would Floyd treat Pac different?
    How often (if ever) have gloves been a major stumbling block in negotiations?

    I wouldn't be surprised if pac accepted to wear pillow gloves just to give in to floyd and make the fight happen. But still, floyd still won't sign and would rather recycle a cotto fight.

    With that said, if I'm with pac's team, I would not agree with this since floyd would be taking away one of pac's edge like what he did against maidana twice.

    floyd hasn't agreed to the fight yet so it might come up.

    every boxing fans knows how pac loves his cletoreyes gloves.

    They should just wear the gloves that Alvarado had on last night.
