Mayweather's gloves for fight night

Roach has already said that he's going to have the gloves inspected. He thinks they have too much padding in them. That's a first, a trainer complaining that the opponent's glove has too much padding.

 

They look like an old ladies curtains or cushions or something

 

They are Prima donna's gloves Should look nice with his pink tutu LOL

 

Jesus...

Due to the magnitude of this fight it will go down in boxing history and will be seen by hundreds of millions of people.

I hope his outfit is a good one, he has worn some shocking shorts in the past.

 

Are there rules pertaining to glove colors?
I would think some gloves may be hard for the opponent to see if it blended into the background scene, while others like florescent glowing orange could be distracting to the fighter or judges.

 

He means both gloves not just Floyds. Atleast i hope thats what Roach meansatschatsch

 

He wants to exploit Floyd's brittle hands.

 

No, he's talking just about Floyd's gloves. He points out that they're custom made and believes they have too much padding in them. He says that Manny's gloves are made by a machine and are all the same. He mentioned Mayweather's past hand problems, so perhaps he's hoping he can get less padding in the glove and Mayweather would be at a bigger risk of hurting his hand.

This actually wouldn't be a first time Roach may have done something like this. Roach was the trainer when Hoya fought Mayweather. Hoya famously made Mayweather wear Reyes gloves in that fight, Reyes gloves offer less protection for a fighter's hands. I wouldn't be surprised if that was Roach's idea.

 

they look horrible who designed those he's wore better gloves

 

I actually like his gloves, the purple and designs in the gloves represent royalty.

 

They're not bad, pretty cool. I wonder what Pac's gloves will be.

 

The gloves look horrible IMO.

 

Delete, wrong thread.

 

God damn, people are hating on glove color now...!!! What's next, gonna hate on foul protectors, mouthpieces, shoe laces, etc...!!!
