    You keep saying this but Maidana's alternate gloves still had less padding than the gloves Floyd was using

    Because Maidana tried to cheat with those flimsy "custom" blue gloves.

    If I was Floyd, I'd do the same thing and so would 99% of others.

    I'd probably go as far as to make him wear the same gloves I woulda wore to the fight, it's to set a precedent for others. Don't try and cheat.

    Of course, he isn't going to let Maidana use any of the gloves he brought. Floyd did the right thing, punish the cheater.

    Those powerlocks were the same gloves Lucas used vs Molina, no one has a problem about them. Powerlocks are also a puncher's glove.

    Since when is Floyd ever going to knock anyone out or try to actually put hurt on his punches though? It doesn't matter then in that case what gloves Floyd would use?

    Why couldn't Maidana use reyes or regular everlast? Why only powerlock?

    It wasn't a pair that Maidana brought, they were a stock pair that had nothing to do with Maidana, it was a pair that the commission had themselves.

    Actually, Garcia said he only wanted to use Everlast b4 the bout and wouldn't wear Grants. Why was he only making the excuses after the fight?

    This is the punishment they get for trying to cheat

    Good question. The gloves were ALREADY APPROVED by the commission and Maidana even offered to wear stock version but Mayweather wanted to make up new rules and showcased his vintage diva coward behavior. These MX gloves are wore by professional boxers in nearly every fight event. As this event was happening, Mayweather and Ellerbe wanted to permanently ban horse hair gloves too :patsch

    It's obvious why the Pacquiao fight never happened... who wants to deal or negotiate with Mayweather's constant whining, road blocking and diva behavior? Maidana should've just walked away and not deal with the bull****.
