Question for you guys who know more than I do about the sports of boxing and MMA. Both sides are petitioning the NV athletic commission to allow them to fight in 8 ounce gloves instead of 10 ounce, which is standard for that weight class. MMA on the other hand uses 4 ounce gloves.
How is dropping from 10 to 8 seen as better or worse?
Stands to reason that with a heavier glove your punches will be slower and you will tire faster, but when you connect they will carry a larger impact.
How will stepping down from 10 to 8 help/hurt Floyd?
How will stepping up to 8 or 10 from 4 help/hurt Conor?
