    YES!! He will demand every advantage possible: 22' ring, 10oz gloves, and he'll probably agree to a catchweight and come in over.

    he's a confident guy

    Okay you stupid alt you Know that Pac is running for parliment in the phillipines at the beginning of the year. I highly doubt itll be at a catchweight since Money is too classless to stick to a contract he signs for a weight.

    I honestly think they will just fight him at 147, I heard Arum talking about it

    If Mayweather wants 10 oz gloves, would this mean that he could be planning to have a much higher punch output than usual? This considering his known problem with damaging his hands in fights.

    i remember him complaining about the 10oz during the boldomir fight which was the first time he used them, DLH fight was at 154 so 10oz is mandatory and hatton fight floyd asked for 10oz while hatton wanted the 8 oz but fight took place with 10 oz. and was going to be 10 oz for the marquez fight but a late fightnight change to 8 oz aswell as 147 weight limit day of weigh in.

    This can't be true. From Sept. 2006 until April 2008, 10 oz. gloves were mandatory for fighters over 135 lbs in Vegas. The Hatton/Mayweather fight took place in Dec. 2007.

    C'mon Blade...you dont like Floyd and even if he beat Pac you not gonna give him any credit....You bash Floyd more than any fighter...It's RARE that I see you give Floyd any credit...when he beats Pac I think you still gonna say the same ****..

    Ive said it many times that he was great at 130 and not once did i say he cant fight,what i want his for him to give us the best fights and thats something he hasnt done,by now we shouldve seen him against Mosley,Cotto and Margo but instead we got some fights with less deserving fighters.

    I will give him some credit if he fights Pac but i still want to see him in there against Mosley.

    nevada ruleing is 135 up is 10 oz gloves unless speculated in contract like you just mentioned ( I just checked it out didnt really know it was ammended) . but during contract agreement it still wasnt sure that the fight takes place in nevada. 135-147 outside of nevadas boxing comission or non sactioned is 8-10 oz.

    we could have already seen the Mosley fight in 2006..I wont get into that cuz we discussed that a lot and we wont see eye to eye....If he beats Pac than I dont see a "need" to fight Shane...HOWEVER I also want to see him fight Mosley IF mosley beats Berto..

    problem is shane will lose to andre...Than Berto will be the next fighter to beat Floyd and so on and so on..I dont think it ends but juss my opinion...he needs to fight the 160 champ and than it might end
