    The thing about the gloves being only part way on is just ridonkulous in the extreme. If your hand isn't fully in the glove, you'd be hitting forehead and forearms, hips and elbows with the middle finger joints as opposed to the knuckle which would likely lead to broken fingers and serious hand injury.

    Anyway, enough of me trying to give a reasonable explanation to this so called 'controversy',as I doubt there's a Wilder fanboi who's ever laced up a pair of gloves in their entire lives, hence why they tend to talk complete and utter bollocks. Never mind aye, they'll run out of excuses for their Boi getting his **** pushed in eventually.......

    Ah yes, the hitting the other guy with an empty glove trick.
    Maybe that's why he was feather-fisted.

    This is so ridiculous. Tyson fury can’t get shorts , boots and now gloves that fit.

    The Deonkey Wilder fanclub desperately scrambling to find any old excuse they can. Let's hope Fury knocks Wilder out in the third fight so they can all shut their darn mouth.

    This forum is slowly becoming a Wilder chat room with the amount of threads on the same subject that are being pumped out. It's been over a week now and it's still jam-packed with Wilder threads.

    An empty glove won't do as much as a golve with a hand in it and I'm not sure it's against the rules

    So I just watched those videos the youtuber is claiming the referee has noticed Fury's thumb is not in the thumb pocket of the glove, and so they tell him to re-do the left glove in the corner.

    But that's not what actually happened.

    The problem was that the small cord that attaches the thumb to the rest of the glove was broken. So there would be a danger of eye gouging. So the referee instructs them to replace the left glove.

    I'm not sure what that Youtuber is trying to achieve besides scamming his audience

    Hand wraps don't protect the middle finger joints.....dude, Jesus ****ing h Christ! Have you never seen hands being wrapped? The only real padded protection is over the knuckle part of the hand and the hand wraps are in order to keep that padding in place.

    Wilder got beaten up and beaten down by the VASTLY SUPERIOR FIGHTER........that is what happened.

    There are several video's debunking this. I don't know why people are still posting about it.
