    I don't think a commision would leave a fighter and his trainer alone with the gloves. I think their's more to the video.

    I'm not going to go calling Wach a disgrace yet, like some guy mentioned earlier, Haye and many other Klitschko opponents say they do stuff like this all the time.

    And wouldn't Vitali be more angry about padding missing from the glove? It is his brother.

    yeah I agree, but we can't see it in the video, so we should wait a bit with the pitchforks

    Vitali looked pissed off lol. Notice how the whole atmosphere changed when he caught them trying to cheat? All the laughing seemed to stop...

    Imagine what it would have meant for boxing if Wach had worn that glove? The 5th round would have had a different ending. And when it had been discovered he was cheating, if he had knocked out Wlad, it would have been worse than Manny's robbery.

    we dont know yet,so stop fukin accusing people
    HE THOUGH GLOVE HAD MISSING PADDING,AND OFFICIALS REPLACE IT FOR FUK SAKE...SO FAR NOBODY FROM OFFICIALS BROUGHT THIS UP...
    IF THATS THE CASE WACH SHOULD BE SUSPENDED,I DO NOT ADVOCATE THIS SORT OF ****.
    THO I WOULDNT BE SUPRISED KNOWIN WACHS TRAINER IS KINDA STRANGELY HATING KLITSCHKO AND HE DID WISHES HIM BEING HURT BEFORE THE FIGHT IN THE INTERVIEV

    The proper way to go about this, for what it's worth, is Tyson Style: "While I m in the dressing room five minutes before I come out, I m breaking my gloves down, I m pushing the leather to the back of my gloves, so my knuckle could pierce through."

    I like how everybody is jumping to conclusions based on a video that provides very little information and explanation, for what is going on. There has been nothing that I have seen published on the matter aside from this vague video.

    If the accusations are true, that also does not mean Wach is responsible, or even had any knowledge that anything malicious was taking place.

    It's like there's a ****ing lynch mob in here.:-(

    If the glove was altered in any way (we don't know that it was, only that the padding wasn't sufficient) my first suspect would be his trainer, not Wach

    This. Hold your horses people. Not even Vitali himself said anything of the kind officially.

    no its not. Glove might have been a fabrication failure. Officials might have overseen it because they are often idiots. Vitklit realized it then checking.

    Turbina is right, no conclusions should be made from a video which offers little infos aside from Vitklit preventing Wach from using a deficitary right glove.

    Video doesn't say whether:

    Glove was just bad
    Padding was "pushed aside"
    Padding was actively removed
    Officials were in the cabin all the time
    eventually present officials were competent

    and a myriad of other things
