i tried on the new red/white predators and then i tried on the new db swerve predators and the weight difference is huge, IMO they have made the power predators way to heavy.

We knew you were trying to be funny! Better luck next time!
Besides, he compared the DB Abs and the Power Abs and they are made out of different materials, leather and synthetic! The red Abs weigh 20 grams more than the other leather Abs, yes but the syntetic DB Abs I believe weigh less than normal Abs and therefor even less than the red Abs! I don't know if you can tell the difference or not but he has his opinion and you have yours!
On the other hand he has held both boots and he said he could tell a difference in weight!
Have you compared them?....

well if you are a 10 in world cups i would say get a 10 for samba. At least thats what I did when I ordered sambas.To be on the safe side you should probably try on a pair
