Just under a month after the duel between Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather, the two once again provoked each other on social media. This time, the subject was the size of the gloves that will be used in the superfight on August 26th. Contractually, the two will use 10-ounce gloves. However, the American provoked the Irishman, assuring that he would like to “accommodate” him better in his boxing debut and would be willing to fight with 8-ounce gloves.

“Don’t believe what you hear in the media, blogs and websites. If it doesn't come directly from me, it's probably not true. I’m telling McGregor, “We’re going to fight with 8-ounce gloves.” He can fight with any brand of gloves. I'm going to use Grant's 8oz gloves. Any advantage McGregor needs to feel more comfortable, I will accommodate him. Let’s give boxing and MMA fans what they want,” Floyd commented on his official Instagram.
Also through your profile on the social network, Conor McGregor fired at Mayweather, saying that he is “f…” with the size of his gloves and that he will attack him anyway.
“12 more rounds today. We are prepared to destroy Floyd. Choose the size of gloves you want, shorty. I fight with four-ounce gloves. I'm a little pissed off about the size of the gloves. I'm speeding towards your bricks. Know this. Fragile hands”, provoked Conor.
Despite the argument between the two, the 10-ounce gloves will be maintained. Under boxing rules, it is not possible for there to be fights with gloves smaller than 10 ounces, according to the director of the Nevada Athletic Commission, Bob Bennett, on the North American TV network “CBS”.
