    So, taking out padding from gloves is common practice in camps? :lol: Sure buddy, sure.

    This is a new low even for fury fanboys.

    Justifying a man removing padding, so he could inflict serious life changing injuries on a sparring partner just because you love him

    You want to talk about headgear when you fail to realize that it doesn't protect the brain from being damaged. In fact research has shown it may cause more head trauma which is why there have been campagins to have fighters at amateur level remove it, due to the fact that it presents a larger surface area for contact and the brain can get impacted inside the skull far more easily

    I would advise you and the rest of you Fury lovers, who say ''who cares'' ''he had to remove the padding to make it feel like small gloves'' to think for one moment of those who have lost their lives due to boxers illegally removing padding from their gloves.

    don't know, ask Paris Fury. Where were u when Klitschko was trying to cheat on FIGHT NIGHT against Tyson, by manipulating the canvas padding, making tyson change dressing rooms, walkout times, etc. not even a fan of Fury, especially after his performance against Wallin. being very non-biased here.

    I'm not a Fury lover at all, read my post reply right above this. so by your logic, if you wear 800 ounce gloves, and due to the fact there is more surface area, and the brain can get impacted far more easily? you probably never sparred before. you don't go 12 rounds like in a fight, you go 2 rounds, then get out, and another partner comes in, to test endurance. so also by your theory, Fury is intentionally trying to give all of his sparring partners brain damage? ahahahahahha

    Pfft, didn´t you read the part that Fury is only "tapping" his opponents in sparring? Open yer eyes pal!
    :lol:

    From personal experience I can say that headgear is good for sparring and just gym work. Protects the skin and lightens some of the impact(I had some neck issues and headgear helped a bit then). And it helps protect from rabbit punches.
    But if someone gets you with a good shot, you will feel it all the same. Makes me cringe when someone mocks a fighter getting hurt while wearing headgear. Like you said, it hurts just the same.

    And there are some good gloves that have basically all of the padding on the knuckles. I have these cheap 10oz gloves that feel like 14 or 16oz gloves on impact. Great for those with hand problems.
    So there is absolutely 0 need to remove padding. FFS, the glove manufacturers themselves make custom order gloves to suit the individual boxer.

    What almost everyone can agree on is that foam padding does little to protect against concussions and knockout blows. Punch hard enough, and you overwhelm the foam’s ability to absorb energy. “The headgear becomes less useful and then not useful,” says [url]Blaine Hoshizaki[/url], a head injury researcher at the University of Ottawa

    And yes I've sparred many times in renowned gyms by renowned trainers and they all agree that it is far safer to fight without header both from a psychological and physical perspective.

    No has implied Fury's intention was to hurt all of his trainer partners. He clearly has a problem with this one in particular.

    We've seen the evidence of the padding being removed and we know he wanted to turn that man's brain into jelly.

    No, Tyson Fury needed to mimic the feel of smaller gloves and there was only one way of that happening. You obviously tamper with the bigger gloves, by carefully removing the padding so you can feel the smallness of the glove

    It was probably Nicholas Asberry's idea, Fury comes from a poor gypsy background and didn't know what he was really doing!

    Agree totally. UFC is way safer than boxing. I'm not a Fury fanboy. I'm a boxing fanboy. as you can see, I've been on this forum since 2004. this account since 2008.

    I'm no fan of Fury, but unless there is a clear audit trail of Fury using those gloves for sparring to the point at which boyo in the video starts inspecting them, then it means nothing, and there is no proof.

    You're trolling, right?

    Or do you really believe that sparring equalls unlicensed matches?

    Yes in a lot of gyms people train like how they fight.

    There's brutal sparring wars even if they're not every spar. You're kidding your self If you think Tyson hasn't KO'd someone in sparring.

    Of course sparring wars exists, but that's still not the same as a professional match, is it? And you have to be kidding yourself if you think sparring wars are the norm of how sparring is conducted.

    I'm pretty sure Tyson has KO'd someone in a bar, that still doesn't equals to a fight (fight as in a boxing match).
