    This is what Rosado said in that interview about Golovkin's gloves :

    "It wasn't like it was just the impact of a glove, it was just like it felt like a little bat hitting the top of my head"

    "Triple G's gloves Grant definitely makes custom gloves for this guy"


    Rosado said there's something suspect about GGG's gloves, and stated that he never got cut before in a fight but got cut twice in the 2nd round vs GGG.

    I mean, with those statements from Rosado talking about how much a health risk to the opponent Gennady's gloves are, that puts Sanchez complaints about how Canelo's hand wrapping style had too much gauze / padding in perspective. Imagine the guy (Sanchez) accused of having unsafe hand wraps / unsafe gloves on his fighter (GGG) because there was too little padding accusing Canelo's team of having illegal hand wraps for having too much padding?

    This guy Sanchez is an utter clown and from the sounds of it, has been getting away with having too little cushion on Gennady's wraps and / or gloves which from the sounds of it is very dangerous to his opponents. Then he accuses Canelo's wraps of being illegal because they had too much padding? And we have posters in this topic trying to argue that stacking gauze causes a health risk? How about having not enough padding and feeling knuckles when you receive a punch? That's pretty fricken dirty and a big health risk !!

    The commission inspected and approved the gloves. Nice try...

    BTW, here's the article:

    Dude waits 9 months to say something about the gloves.:facepalm:

    Reminds me of when William Joppy said Hasim Rahman warned him about Tito's wraps before they fought. And yet...Joppy never said ANYTHING until years later. Nothing on the day of the fight, and yet his team signed off on the wraps. Sounds legit huh?

    If GGG is doing some funny business, that's fine, Canelo's team should call him out on it or make some kind of contractual arrangements to protect themselves. But two wrongs don't make a right so whether or not GGG himself is swerving the rules (which is of course substantiated pretty much solely on the account of one fighter) that doesn't excuse Canelo.

    Rosado didn't wait 9 months, he complained right then and there but the commission approved the gloves anyway.
    The same commission that didn't let Marcos Maidana use his preferred gloves for the same reason Rosado complained about Golovkin's.

    Marcos Maidana was not allowed to use his chosen gloves because as Mayweather said, there was very little padding in the knuckle area of the gloves, which would have meant that like Golovkin vs Rosado, Maidana's handwraps would have been felt upon Mayweather's noggin.

    The only difference here is that when Mayweather complains about a glove issue the commission has to listen and take everything into consideration because they know Mayweather holds all the cards and can walk out of the fight.
    Rosado has no such leverage and any complaint coming from him the commission just tells him to shut up and fight.

    The only difference Divac? Other than the fact that one was Everlast, the other Grant you mean?

    Everyone knows different glove makers have slight differences from others. What happened w/ Mayweather and Maidana has NOTHING to do with Rosado versus 3G. Hell, even Mayweather wore Grant. Not to mention, it's Mayweather FFS. A control freak who happens to be paranoid as well...

    I know false equivalencies are the thing you guys like to do, but not gonna work with me.

    Now that I'm thinking about Golovkin's issues with Gloves, someone in this very forum posted a thread with closeup pictures of Golovkin's gloves during a couple of his fights where the knuckle area of the gloves looked unusually wrinkled, like someone had taken the gloves and manipulated the padding away from the knuckle area.

    ...When you punch something with enough force this happens. Also most punchers will punch the wall to break the gloves in further. Breaking gloves in is very important.

    Rosado is just straight up wrong. This isn't even how it works. You can prove this by understanding what handwraps actually do and test this yourself. This isn't even worth responding to.

    Also it wouldn't matter if Golovkin used brass knuckles. It has **** all to do with stacking your gloves. You're doing the fanboy thing again bro. Again, I don't even care what Golovkin does. This isn't Golovkin vs Canelo or about who is righteous in this situation. It is about the legality and ethics of stacking. Everything you just said is completely irrelevant.

    Golovkin is a clean fighter never seen him do anything illegal. I have never heard he failed a test nor is he backed by crooks like Golden Boy, NSAC and WBC. I don't know why you would make a clean fighter make him look bad for?

    Totally agree, i may get called paranoid and a conspiricy theorist but its true. The drugs, the wraps, the score cards, the weigh in issue. Worst thing is its mostly happening right infront of our eyes.

    The Golovkin-Rosado fight was in New York, so no, it was not the same commission as Mayweather-Maidana.

    Nevada is a corrupt commission, which is why you see a select few, namely Mayweather and Canelo, who insist on fighting in Vegas because they have them in their pocket.

    Rosado shouldn’t have bought his gloves at Modell’s (next to the UFC and CrossFit gear), he should have called up Grant and asked for the custom ones he believes are being made.



    All I know is I’ll be disappointed in Abel if he doesn’t stack GGG’s wraps for the rematch lol.
