Will PBF demand gloves and ring size like Oscar did for their fight?

    PBF has a cocky confidence that DLH never had...he won't dictate to Hatton about gloves or ring because he doesn't see anyway that Hatton can beat him...he'll allow Hatton to wear whatever gloves he wants...

    Thinking about how damn hard Oscar worked to get get everything in his favor and still lost made me actually feel sorry for the guy. (Just a wee bit)
    He worked his ass off knowing he needed all the advantages in order to even have a prayer to win. He couldn't stand to have another loss to an elite fighter. He had never beaten one before and it was starting to damage his legacy. But even with every advantage in the book he of course still lost. He is 0 and 5 against the elite guys now. And no matter how hard he trains he still can't go past 7 or 8 without starting to fade away. Damn that must be starting to embarrass the guy knowing everyone is watching him slow down again in the later rounds. Damn! Honestly I actually am starting to feel sorry for the guy. I really am. (Well not a lot but a little bit anyway)

    This was some BS. How the hell do you choose your opponents gloves? I've never heard of that happening before this fight.

    I think you can choose your opponents glove. I saw an interview where Mayweather said he wanted to wear Winning Gloves for the DLH fight but Oscar said he had to use Reyes as part of the agreement to the fight.

    I think its bull**** as well. Fighters should wear whatever gloves they want. If your a puncher screw it wear reyes. If floyd wants winning to protect his hands why not?

    I think Oscar wanted him to hurt his hands or something. it wouldnt have worked anyway. PBF has knocked out and hurt people with winning gloves as well. (Gatti, Ndou). Its sad when you have to rely on the brand of gloves to win a fight. Wear whatever you want!

    LMFAO...You can have any ref u want...Floyd fights Ricky and Ricky gets knocked out and beat up the same way he did in the 1st fight! The ref didn't throw that check left hook that sent Ricky crashing into the post!:nut :deal
