Floyd Would Have Visited The Shadow Realm If Maidana Was Able To Wear His Regular Gloves...

Floyd paid Maidana $1.5 million dollars to not wear his regular gloves. Saved hisself from a KO loss.

 

Did you actually require an explanation? Do you think Floyd paid Maidana $1.5 million dollars to wear different gloves because it made no difference?

Use your ****ing head, guy.

 

What validation is needed beyond Floyd paying Maidana huge money to wear different gloves?

But here you go from a former puncher who's very familiar and tested out the gloves:

"These gloves are very light, as if they don't have much protection. I hit the and I can feel my knuckles [hit the bag]. There is less protection for the knuckles. The difference I see in terms of cushioning is very similar to Cleto Reyes. It creates an impact that does not have much cushion. You feel the blow, you throw a hook and feel the knuckles, feel the power of the blow, so Mayweather does not want Maidana use these gloves. Maidana already hits hard and with these gloves his punches will be even stronger. Mayweather could get hit and go right to the mat. A well connected punch can hurt Mayweather."

— Juan Manuel Marquez

 

Pointless? A boxer only has his hands in the ring. Directly affected the matches.

 

No sour grapes. Don't like Floyd, though.

 

Correct. But not with the normal gloves Maidana prefers and is used to. I think Floyd would have been dropped and hurt very badly.
