What's Team Maidana's penalty for trying to pull a Resto?

[( . Y . )]

If there was no padding in the gloves, and Floyd simply noticed, what's the problem???

Clearly everything was handled and the fight is on. Stop the excuses. If there was no padding in the glove, how can anyone justify hating on Floyd for bringing it up?

Do you really think Everlast brought a glove with ZERO padding and expected it to get by the commission and Floyd's camp? No one is that dumb.

Because according to some around here, boxing gloves don't need padding. "Padding is only supposed to protect the person punching, not the person getting hit".

Any proof that there was no padding on the glove?

Did Floyd simply notice?

Is everything cleared up and Maidana can where the gloves he wants?

Floyd demanding Maidana can't where the approved gloves of his choice and saying he can where grants or the fight is off, is one reason to hate.


The other is the gamesmanship employed by Floyd over this or is it merely to hype the fight?


Don't act dumb, you know what has gone on.

Why are you so quick to change the subject to the new pair?

Let's talk about the pair missing padding and if they weren't found out, we could have a major incident. Let's talk about that COMPLETE screw up and who was responsible.

After we get that ironed out and determine who was responsible, let's talk about the 2nd pair.

I hope you're not going to say something like Floyd is ducking for not fighting a guy with no padding in his gloves like the rest of some of these idiots.

PS: The 2nd pair was slightly better than the first; not by much. Still not adequate enough to fight in a sanctioned bout, let alone one of this magnitude. I know you hate Floyd, but come on bruh!

Because you are saying that he showed up with a bunch of tainted gloves trying to cheat. The blue pair wasn't approved by the commission while the brand new pair (in the bag which Ellerbe removed from the bag and Floyd also rejected) was approved by the NASC. The rep even said, the commission has already looked at them and approved them so there is nothing Mayweather can say or do about it.

My gripe is that there is no proof at all that anyone is trying to cheat and the commission, that represents the hometown of Mayweather, the city that he brings millions of dollars into, found no fault with the second pair of gloves. They would obviously not approve any gloves that would harm Floyd as he is the hometown fighter. I don't get why you are saying the second pair of gloves is inadequate for the fight when that model has been used in Vegas fights since 2008 and they were just approved for this fight. Where is your proof beyond Floyd and his team saying they have an issue with them?

The whole thing is to get Maidana into Grant gloves....anyone with a brain can see this. Furthermore, Floyd says: "Put him in the same schit that I'm wearing". How can you get any more transparent than that?

You can tell Garcia be on some dirty stuff in the video he said to Floyd why don't you use the same type of gloves...

Ariza in the camp as well, remember when Garcia turned his back acting like he was looking at something and Ariza gave Marcos those inhalants.

Well considering the commission ruled the gloves weren't good for the fight because of the lack of padding......it seems as if there wasn't padding or enough padding in the pair.....???

If Maidana was forced to wear Grant, that's not cool. He should just be able to wear a different pair of the same brand.

Smh.....Idk if that was a shot at how black people supposedly all talk or what. But it was ******.

Of course.

It's a mockery shot. They all do it.

But, what's funny is I don't know if they know that we know OR if it's just really funny to them and they think they're speaking in secret code no one else can pick up on.

Either way, it's embarrassing and shows what kind of person we're chatting with on the other side of the computer screen. I like it because I know what kind of character I'm dealing with.

Battling Nelson has been added to the laundry list

No one here knows what really happened. But we do know this is boxing. Money goes along way . Garcia does work with Alex. Garcia did work with margarito after the allegations. Brandon failed a drug test. And mayweather has lots of haters. Certain people may or may not have tampered with the gloves. Could be any reason. Maybe they were paid off. Don't like Floyd. ..Could have money on Chino or maybe Floyd is on a power trip. Nobody knows.

Again, the second pair wasn't adequate. They weren't as bad as the first, but they shouldn't be sanctioned either.

Secondly, all this "Floyd is just trying to do XYZ" is crap.

All this conspiracy stuff you guys come up with isn't too far off from "Floyd asked for PED testing because he knew Manny wouldn't accept---Floyd copped out" schit from 2009.

Isn't Battling Nelson a moderator on this site? One would think that mods should be above that kind of thing.
