    Not to entertain the LDBC agenda, which we all know is absurd, but could the Las Vegas Athletic Commission end this entire chapter of Glove Gate 2.0?
    Meaning that if I'm not mistaken, doesn't the Nevada Athletic Commission:
    1. Stand inside the locker room and perform an observation of the wrapping process.
    2. Stand in the locker room and perform an observation of the gloving process and also check the gloves.
    3. Take possession of the gloves following the matches and check them.
    4. Or, in the case of the championship fights, hold onto them for a duration of time following the match.
    Any of (2-4) which would invalidate the entire "controversy" for this cadre of fanatics. Would it not?

    If something was amiss, we would know about it, the NSAC did all those things you mentioned whilst being stood next to Jay Deas... I don't expect the NSAC to make a comment on every fighters wraps. Thats a bit silly.

    Unfortunately, I have to disagree on whether it's silly. These people pervade the internet boxing reporting, influence fans, have insight into Deontay Wilder's camp, and even maintain positions within his camp.
    His brother and camp members have unofficially confirmed Deontay Wilder's mindframe on this matter as well.
    Which is ridiculous IMO.

    So even when no incident has occurred and no foul play is found, you would like a statement of the boxers fair play from the NSAC in every match up??

    Sorry you disagree, I respect your opinion, but personally that's just absurd. If something was found out then sure, ring the damn bells... but not every pair of wraps in every fight

    I think the fact nothing has been said by the NSAC speak volumes. They shouldn't have to pander to idiots.

    I agree that they are in fact idiots. If the question is whether I personally desire the Nevade State Athletic Commission to make official proclamations any time that a false controversy arrives, no, I would not like that.
    I would however like to determine the official protocol, not any specific nuances of this match-up.
    If the protocol is determined, then this case is clarified and concluded. As well as several more moving forward.
    If the protocol is listed anywhere, let me know and I will personally make videos, posts, etc to clarify this situation on my YouTube channel/social media profiles.

    The reason being that these YouTube channels are strangely more influential than one might think (or hope), and they're having a negative influence upon many people. Even those within positions of power and influence within boxing teams and camps.

    Glove Gate has been about as thoroughly debunked as any conspiracy theory could be lol

    The videos raise valid issues, but it's a moot point as the NSAC isn't going to come out and fall on their own sword.

    I just think nobody should be giving this any attention at all as it is just deluded Wilder fans who cannot accept reality.
