Mayweather wants 10 oz Gloves and 154lbs ? E-mail
Both fighters are willing to fight in March but the devil may be in the details.  Freddy Roach believed all along that Manny would agree to a March bout.  However he does mention "There's always negotiations, like he (Mayweather) wants 10oz gloves we want 8oz gloves, stuff like that, the weight he wants is 154lb, we want 147, so there's some issues but I think it can be solved,” he said to Sky Sports.

The two most important issues are the Time and the Place.  March 13th is the
date being tossed around for the Mega fight and the Place being either the MGM grand in Las Vegas or possibly the Cowboys stadium in Texas.  The other details such as weight and glove size is yet to be determined. 
 
Mayweather is known to use the bigger gloves due to his hand problems especially earlier in his career and can give an advantage in defense.  Pacquiao used the 8 oz Mexican gloves made by Cleto Reyes known as the “Punchers Gloves” in his fight with Miguel Cotto.

I think if anything, Floyds just saying this so he can get the 10oz gloves. He knows that it aint gunna happen at 154.

I can see Mayweather fighting with 10 oz gloves....he always wears those big azz gloves. Thats cool if thats what he wants....but Manny should be able to wear REYES if he wants, not those big azz pillows smilies/cheesy.gif

good call Hammer it is likely just a negotiation ploy - Floyd couldn't even make 154 lbs when he fought oscar.. all he could get himself up to was 150 lbs.. Oscar was likely 160 or even more on fight night.. so much for Mayweather not wanting to fight heavier guys.

he likely just want's to be able to come back with.. ok, 147 but i want the 10 oz gloves..

anyway.. GIT IT DONE! and LET'S GET IT ON BABY!

BS, 154 is way too big for both fighters. Either Freddy's lying or Floyd's trying to play hard ball for the 10 oz. gloves

Floyd wants the 10s for defence, and if he can use the heavyer gloves he thinks Manny will be a shade slower and he can see the gloves coming better, which is true. Good call Floyd.

think about it. why would mayweather request a weight that is hard for him to make? secound do you realy think abrum would have taken a contract to pacman that was requesting 154 as the weight. abrum is one of the toughest negotiatiors in the game, he would have never agreed to that. roach has been talking a lot of shit for days. i think this is just him talking more shit, trying to take from the fact that pacman is holding up signing of fight. witch is fine this is part of the game. but roach should not be yaping all this bull shit. no one should believe a word that guy sais. read up on abrum, he would have never agreed to anything that would have put pacman in a bad spot. he would have walked right out of that room. roach is full of shit.

and third. fight is for pacman's belt. the max weight for the belt, devision is 147 so why would he ask for a weight they cant fight at for the belt anyway. roach is full of shit.

funny how mayweather has the reputation of a shit talker yet the only shit talkers the last few days are coming out of pacmans camp. abrum talking junk, roach talking junk, pacman talking junk.

HERE WE GO AGAIN... ANOTHER WAY OF FLOYD TO GET AWAY FROM PACMAN... DAMN COWARD PUSSY
04 December, 2009

DOCSPOC!

ALL YOU HAVE WRITTEN IS IN FAVOR OF FLOYD, 10oz GLOVES? WHY? TO LESSEN THE DAMAGE FOR HIS FACE? BULLSHIT MAN.. HIS THE BIGGER GUY, THE MOST EXPERIENCE GUY, HAVE ALL THE ADVANTAGE VS PACMAN.. THEN WHY YOU ARE AGREED IN 154 AND 10oz GLOVES? 154 TO MAKE PACMAN SLOWER AT THAT WEIGHT AND HAVE ALL THE ADVANTAGE? 147 IS THE BEST CATCH WIEGHT FOR BOTH OF THEM.. PACMAN IS THE UNDERDOG HERE! SO WHY ARE YOU SO AFRAID OF?
04 December, 2009

NDESTRUKT said: _

 
GUYS.. DONT GET IN FAVOR ON THE BIG GUY FLOYD. TO MANY EXCUSES AND ALLIBY. HE FIGHT MARQUEZ WHICH IS BIGGER THAN PACMAN W/O THIS KIND OF STUFF. HEY FLOYD USE YOUR BALLS.. YOUR MANHOOD DEPENDS ON THIS FIGHT.

If Floyd gets into the ring with Manny win loose or draw he still wins respect for fighting the best, and in the prosess he shows he is not afraid.

147 IS NOT A CATCH WEIGHT. 147 is the welterweight limit. the fight is for pacmans belt. they can not fight for pacman's belt at 154 so he couldnt ask for that wieght. he could only as for 141 to 147 like i said b4 roach is full of shit. you can only fight for the belt between 141 to 147. and i think mayweather asked for the bigger gloves because he uses them for his defence. pacman uses 8 ounce because of his style of fighting. works better for him. has nothing to do with being a coward. every figher has gloves that work better for his style.

PACMAN SIGNED CONTRACT ON FRIDAY. FIGHT WILL BE AT 147 FOR TITLE. THEY WILL FIGHT WITH 8 OUNCE GLOVES. SPLITE WILL BE 50/50 AND THE FIGHT WILL BE CALLED MAYWEATHER/ PACQIAO FIGHT WILL BE HELD BY HBO. LOCATION IS NOT SET YET. LOOKS LIKE MAYBE DALLAS STADIUM. ALL THAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN NOW IS FOR THE CONTRACT TO GET FROM MANILA PHILLIPINES TO LAS VEGAS NEVADA SO MAYWEATHER CAN SIGN THEN IT IS ON. CANT WAIT.

In my opinion Floyd looked terrible at 150 against Oscar and it seemed like the 10oz. gloves in that fight slowed him down, so I don't know why in the world he would ask for 10oz. gloves and 154 as the weightclass against the most dangerous fighter in the world. This puts both fighters at a disadvantage if you ask me. I'm totally confused. They need to fight at 147 and Pac should be able to wear whatever gloves he feels comfortable in and Mayweather should do the same. Cut all this b.s. out!

what is so difficult to understand about the fact that they are fight for title. you can only fight for the welterweight title 141 to 147 pounds. so he couldnt have asked to fight for title at 154 in order to fight for title it would have had to be between 141 to 147 ill say it one more time since a few people seam to not be able to get it through there heads. they are fighting for pacmans title. you can only fight for the title between 141 to 147. i dont know what fight you looked at but mayweather looked preaty good fighting someone that weighed over 160 pounds on fight night. mayweather weighed 147 on fight night. fight all set anway. 8 ounce gloves, 147 weight. fight will be called mayweather vs pacquiao location not set yet. will be hosted by hbo. split is 50/50 pacman already signed. contract is being taken from manila to nevada for mayweather to sign

This is gona show just how good GAYWEATHER is, PACMAN is gona push him hard, hope pacquiao's got the skills to pay the bills!! is this the fight too far? lets hope not! Boxing needs and deserves a true p4p champion and figurehead for the sport who pocesses the HEART and COURAGE that pacqiao oozes coupled with his arsenal of skills and crowd pleasing incessant attacking mindset, attributes that unfortunately the overcautious, safety 1st, charisma free pretty boy only dreams of posessing every time he steps in to the ring with an opponent who's either totally out of his weight class alas JMM or totally not in the same league AKA Baldomir rather thn a genuine live contender such as Williams, Sugar Shane, Cotto(pre Margarito) and Margarito (pre hand wrap cheat) to name a few!
Sign the contract an lets get it on!!

like abrum has said many times b4, he doesnt like mayweather fighting his fighters. he also said he doesnt want pacman fighting mayweather but not doing fight could hurt boxing. boxing gets hurt, his pockets get hurt as well. he gets 27% of pacmans earnings so he will make out great fight night anyway. cotto margartio both signed to abrum he would not let those fights happen.mosley ducked mayweather twice. refused to fight him so stop puting mosley in that catagory. he refused to fight mayweather twice. was only going to get 8 million to fight margarito, got 12 million to fight baldomir " it dont make money it dont make sence. as far as him being safe. you dont fight the correct way what you call safe you end up lie ali. all fucked up, shacking all the damn time. you fight with good defence what you call safe. you end up like b-hope. putting yourself in position to get your face smashed when you can help it is not brave. its just stupid. roach was "brave" too thats why hes shacking all the time and mentaly all fucked up you live that life if you want to. obviously mayweather is smarter then that.

Bolo is F up for calling ali and roach names. Thanks to fighters like this boxing is a memorable sport. Imagine all boxers fighting a-la mayweather? Efen Boring as fuck! i would rather watch MMA at that point, and i hate mma shit.

going back to the megafight- 147 is cool for both, but i dont think mayweather cares for the belt so if he goes in at a comfortble 148 he wont care. 10oz globes are a priority and may will get that wish granted for sure. I think its gona be a great fight, pacman is gona bring it and may is gona be hitting all them open holes that pac leaves when punching.

I call BS! said: _

 
BOLO: LMFAO!!…. I GOTTA CALL BS! Like most Floyd fans, you REALLY live in your own world and believe what you want to! DON’T YOU?! While I agree that Bob Arum can be a little loud, just when exactly does Roach or Pacquiao ever utter anything but the calm and quiet confidence and TRUTH?! It is YOU Mayweather people that are the ones who loudly spit ANY & EVERYTHING in your PATHETIC attempts to diminish Paquiao's achievements and make up all kinds of Swiss cheese excuses for Floyd's phony-assed legacy, and his NEVER ending BS. It is you all, and Mayweather’s crew themselves, who are the ones saying desperate CRAP like: Paquiao is "one-dimensional" or “he was knocked out twice” (YEAH!... Gimme’ a break!! That was as a 19 YO kid weighing 108 lbs!!! G) Or, how about: “he only beats “damaged” or “old, weight-drained champions” or … the ultimate: “He’s on Steroids”! (Although he continually passes every multiple test with flying colors under the NEW substance abuse standards)… BLAH, BLAH, BLAH!!! DESPITE what some of YALL’ claim, I bet you anything that Mayweather IS trying to get Pacman to wear 10oz gloves too! Why? Because he is clearly WORRIED about Pacquiao’s two-gunned speed and power! That's why he wants Pacman to use them “Pillows”. It is to try and slow Manny down and take away some of his impact! Otherwise why doesn’t Floyd wear what he wants, and just let Pacman wear his 8 oz Reyes gloves, like he always has against all the other NON cry-baby opponents? HUH?! (Oh… except in Pacquiao VS. Morales I)!! Hmm! I wonder… Could it be that Floyd thinks that those pillows will help him, like they did Morales?... Just wondering. Anyway, I bet you ANYTHING, that on fight week, AND fight night, Mayweather CHEATS on the weight… AGAIN!! JUST like he did against LITTLE, OLD MARQUEZ. Sounds like FEAR to me!!!!!! This time though? I just get the feelin’ that it won’t matter what he does … Because now the truth will be revealed to history. So mark my words: “This time, Floyd’s O will have to GO!!!! And I will win some big cash…. AGAIN!!!!HAAAA! HA! HA! HA! HA!!

pacmans coach has made multiple statments talking trash the last 3 weeks so has abrum. why is it then when they are saying the same kind of things mayweather says, but when mayweather says it, he is talking trash. when abrum and roach say it, they are telling the truth. if that is your theory, then mayweather doesnt talk trash. because he has done everything he said he would do in the ring against his apponents. its ok for one person to do one thing but it is not ok for someone else to do the exact same thing? and how is it trash talking to point out a statement made that is impossible. fight is for pacmans belt. you cant fight for that belt past 147 pounds. any real boxing fan understands the basics of weight class especially when it pertains to a belt. so if he can only fight up to 147 for belt. it would make no sence to ask for a weight that you cant fight at for the belt. if you can fight for welterweight belt at 154 please someone let me know.

mayweather cheat on weight. mayweather came in at 147 against marquez, he is fight at 147 against pacman. and this is for the belt, in this fight if he comes in over 147 the fight is no longer for the belt. so thats not happen. and fear? if he is so scared, why did he agree to turms so fast. deal got done in less then a month. so much for the fear factor. and as far as the gloves go, i dont think mayweather is worried about pacman hurting him at all. if you watch boxing you know mayweather is a defencive fighter, those gloves work best for him with his style, just like the smaller gloves work best for pacman for his style of fighting. they are fighting with the 8 oz gloves anyway so it doesnt matter. keep up with the blog gangsta talk and after march 13th, please no excuses. mosley take care of berto and get ready for your fight against undefeated mayweather late summer.

joeluis. what do you mean im calling ali a name. no one called ali any names, im just stating a fact. there is a reason why fighters like winkey, hopkins and mayweather fight the way they do. the science of the game is to hit and not get hit. you let yourself get hit too much trying to entertain fans, that is your future. it might be harsh but it is true. in ali's ealiers days. thats whay he used to do. jab. and back up. never allowing himself to get hit, just like mayweather does. you have internet, look at his old fights. later years getting hit the way he did to win fights is reason he is the way he is. roach same thing. his style got him to the point he is in. hatton has same style but he was smart enough to retire. all im saying you allow yourself to get hit to quote please the fans. you will end up the say way. look at ali old fights when he was cashies clay. jab jab, back up back up jab jab. all night untill apponent dropped. exactly what hopkins and mayweather do. thats why they are still both healthy and most all other fighters look all beat up in there 30's but no one was talking junk about ali. one of the greatest of all time , just retired tooooooo late.
