Official Mayweather vs Maidana Master Discussion & Postfight Analysis Thread

[check hook]

Anyway this **** happens all the time. Expect a compromise to be reached and the fighters to fight. Floyd isn't losing a $5 million outlay.

[Godsfly]

none of this matters because both guys will be in 8 oz gloves (regardless) i could see if one fighter was fighting in 10 oz gloves while the other fighting in 8oz..........do you guys realize that these guys spar & train in 16 oz gloves?



ANY 8oz glove will wreck you.


this is literally a petty debate about small padding.

[MGMGRAND]

so they are the same brand as the light blue ones just different color and this has been settled correct

Yes.

They are just a different color and the red ones also have MUCH more padding.
And from Dan Rafeal on espn..issue seems to be resolved

[Cuban Linx]

Mayweather TKO late

The gloves have no padding

[check hook]

Yes.

The red ones or another pair will be used and Maidana will get his ass whooping. Nothing to see here.

[Da Machine]

Yes.

And from Dan Rafeal on espn..issue seems to be resolved

Rafeal hasn't covered this at all, and basically scoffed at the fact there was any issue at all. He has no idea what's going on.

Iole has all the inside info on this, and nothing is resolved, however Ellerbe aid it would be.

[QUOTE=Red Slider;14496512]Then why is Ellerbe saying no to the red ones also?

You know damn wel the commission would have approved them had Ellerbe not said anything. Commission was trying to be Floyd friendly, yet fair to Maidana, hence the approval of he red gloves. The red gloves are the same ****ing gloves, different color.[/QUOTE

Why does it matter. Are the blue gloves gonna give Maidana any special power?

If I was Maidana I'd donate those blue gloves to some MMA gyms because that's clearly what they are.

And about the red ones...Ellerbe is just being a ass-whole. Trying to get under Robert and Maidanas skin.

[Resilient]

The gloves have no padding

I'm sure the commission approved the red gloves with no padding right?

Clearly, you haven't heard about the the Resto incident ..... smh!!!

William Ray Collins, Jr. (September 21, 1961 – March 6, 1984) was an Irish-American professional boxer whose career was ended after he sustained serious injuries against an opponent with illegal under-padded gloves.
