    A source would be rios's own trainer garcia. He said the board were really against gradovich wearing the gloves in his fight v selby.

    I asked for a soruce from a non hearn fighter, it's obvious that hearn doesn't want his stars opponents to wear those gloves. Mopar said himself that they even paid Kingpin for wearing different gloves when they werent even banned.

    I don't really understand the logic - brook and his team don't want the fight, rios wasn't even in the IBF top 15 until negotiations began... kells team sought out rios about a fight, not the other way round. Rios didn't even know who kell was until kell mentioned his name after a fight... but yeah logically brook and his team didn't want the fight they just wasted weeks trying to get the fight made for no reason. Such stupidity on this forum at times

    why should I? lmfao brook's TEAM were complaining about the gloves to Garcia before. if brook didnt care he could have simply told his team let this worn out dude do whatever he wants. but instead he said let me quote him word for word, @Brandon_Rios1 do as your told or I'll smack your ass quicker then you thought!!, you bitcj!!

    Use your common sense :patsch jesus christ are you dumb. When did I state that he never wanted the fight? They wanted the fight, but on their terms with a million demands to hinder Rios even further. To quote you, "such stupidity on this forum at times".

    I will admit, I was wrong on one aspect...KINGPIN wore Everlast against Joshua, it was the Dillian Whyte contract that he agreed to wear Cleto Reyes...but KINGPIN retired after the Joshua fight, terminating the Whyte contract...!!!

    I corrected it...it was for the following fight that was going to be Dillian Whyte vs Kevin Johnson on an Anthony Joshua undercard that KJ agreed to wear Cleto Reyes gloves...!!!

    That quote means nothing. Still the commission who don't like the everlast gloves. This idea that Eddie hearn now has control over the British boxing board is absurd.

    So Hearn now decieded what the BBBoC do and the IBF just to get Brook to keep his title according to you. :lol::lol:

    So far Hearn has paid off the following to reject IBF mando slots:

    - Leonard Bundu
    - Amir Khan
    - Tim Bradley
    - Shawn Porter
    - Sadaam Ali
    - Devon Alexander

    Now the British boxing board of control too.

    By god, Hearn must have some deep pockets. :patsch

    And if it's Hearn paying them off, why did the BBBoC stop Billy Joe Saunders opponent the other week as well as Terry Flanagans from wearing the gloves- 2 fighters who are not even with Hearn :patsch

    Why can you never just hold your hands up and say, look I was mistaken, it was clearly a commission rule and nothing to do with Brook, I was wrong, rather than acting like a petulant child because you're still butt hurt about Brook beating Porter

    From Robert 'the truth' Garcia. The man who claimed that Rios failed his PED test because he had a wee in a dirty glass that had already been used.

    And that Rios would've fought Brook at 5 weeks notice in a none title bout, not on US TV for 5 times less money than he was offered to fight him with 5 months notice for a title.


    Game Set Match indeed.
