    Fight gloves are at that level approuved and part of the contract so they are nogociated with all the other aspects of the fights so Meaweyther's people accepted these gloves so they are bitching for nothing...a contract is a contract! They are différent kind of gloves with différent kind of padding....it won't change the out one anyway, even if they have less padding if he doesn't touch him it dont change the fight!

    Whoever believes the gloves had no padding is a major league moron. There are differences among gloves brand even if they aren't customized. Try Everlast and Cleto Reyes you will see a difference. But to say there wasn't padding is 100% bull****

    I'm wondering why this isn't the bigger story.

    Maidana and his team tried using illegal gloves. That's a fact!

    Dont be a nit wit, these gloves were made by everlast not Maidana, and everlast have been around for ever, Floyd just doesnt want to get hit by a punchers glove.

    Did they or did they not try to use gloves with insufficient padding?

    That's not Maidana's problem there's nothing to suggest that anyone in the maidana camp tampered with those gloves so it's an Everlast issue.

    Nobody tried to cheat, you just cannot use customised gloves, Floyd himself had this issue in Vegas and had to change them before.

    Do you know which fight that was ?

    No they didnt try and use gloves with insufficient padding. That would mean they had cause.

    Did they bring a glove that was found to have a padding issue after inspection. Yes.

    Two different things.

    Sure and Floyd himself was stopped from using gloves because it had leather in places it shouldve had foam.

    The lesson to be learned here is just use the gloves form the manufacturer and dont get them made up yourself.

    These are minute differences and I promise you if you looked at one to the other you would notice very very little, but at the hightlest level everythign has to be perfect.

    Are you aware the blue ones were made by the manufacturer.

    They just changed the colour, Maidana didnt make these himself.

    Correct. Some really stupid people in this forum. They post without investigating.
