    It's fine but they shouldn't allow custom gloves and they should be consistent and tight with the manufacturers.

    Glass hands boxers like Floyd needed heavily padded gloves...

    problem is he didn't like opponents wearing the less protective horsehair gloves and wanted to take away their power and stronger hands advantage.

    Yeah its classic deck stacking. Same stuff Wlad usually did, Canelo does. Think it started with SRL.

    Eddie Hearn's little rat greasy haired posh boy pretend to be G's sidemen dealing with this side of the business acting like they know more than 25 year pro boxers disgust me. They arn't allowed to have an opinion.

    Helenius is an upstanding person.

    AJ's custom gloves clearly dodgy and the off the shelf "identical" gloves showed that because they were different!

    The blind eye from people like Chisora is also disgusting. This little sell out to the saudi's rat protecting AJ bum for the paydays. I'll knock Chisora out personally next time I see him for this lack of honour and integrity. He talks a good game all the time but only walks it half the time.

    Sugar Robert Helenius has used extremely soft gloves for years to protect his hands from shattering by his considerable Viking power. Now he said wants the same paper gloves Joshua is using. Ask and you shall receive.

    The terrible thing is fighters who aren't in the position to walk away like Helenus can't do much but accept this nonsense

    Maidana wanted to walk away but was forced to wear different gloves or Floyd would have sued him for breaking contract. So effectively Floyd paid $1m to take away Maidana's power advantage. It's a joke. A farce. and history will NEVER Forget which is why us the fans must always remember.

    New opponent on short notice gives AJ a panic attack and flashbacks of a 280 pound 5'10" midget.
