So why is Mayweather a punk for having to do the same?
IMO, the only punk here is ODH for basically stipulating a handycap into the contract. Clearly he only wants Floyd to wear "punchers' gloves" because he's hoping Floyd will injure his hands and then he won't have to deal with a 100% Floyd. It would be one thing if ODH just wanted to be allowed to wear Reyes himself, but it's bullshit to include in the contract provisions concerning what gloves your opponent can wear--and it indicates that the person forcing in this provision isn't confident he can win on skill alone.
I guess it is a punk move on Oscars part but I do not blame him. What is he going to do? Let PBF come in with those huge pillows? But wait, didn't they change the pillow rule?
