Shoutout to O/P for common sense. Floyd preferred 8 oz vs Cotto, and fought with 10 oz no problem Fought with big ass pillows against Oscar no problem Just put on your gloves and fight Chino.
Maidana needs to stop whinning about some gloves that were handed down from his late uncle Boodrow Wilson. He is a crude wreckless fighter with TERRIBLE accuracy....he couldnt hit the broad side of a barn!
Maidana should just use Reyes. He has worn them before and they are better than the Everlast MX gloves anyway.
what?, gloves are preference, Mexican Everlast and reyes are both used by punchers so how can you say one is better than the other, sure they are better than powerlock ones for chino
I'm not sure we'll ever know the truth behind the gloves, just like rest of the shady antics that go around in boxing. The truth we do know is that Maidana is gonna have a real hard time landing clean on Mayweather, so what gloves he's wearing won't matter.
Like OP said, Chino should be talking about how he plans to improve for the rematch, better conditioning, stamina, footwork, working on his in and out game, getting his jab going, doing better body work...but oh no, he just crying about gloves. Does make you think he's headed the illegal gloves/illegal wraps route..
" I am so damned sick of hearing about these MX gloves! Let's examine the facts." The FACT is... Floyd doesn't want Maidana to use his choice of gloves.atsch
