Secondly, Breadman Edwards mentioned this on Twitter this weekend. I think it's a valid topic to discuss.
kevinhorn_KH idk just my observations. GGG gloves were considerably tighter and smaller. Take a look for yourself...

That odd portion in the glove is in all Grants. It fits around the unique Grant thumb. I do think Grant gloves can be sketchy but I don't think what Rosado is saying was legit because if you hit the top of someone's head w/ no protection, you break your hand.

I tried going to the site, but don't see anything.
It's just pics of GGG's gloves the Grant put up.
Elvis Grant Phillips hand customizes gloves for a number of fighters other than GGG, including BHop, Spence, Brook, Jack, Ward and Mayweather.

What a bunch of bull****. The athletic commission carefully inspects the gloves to be used in a fight. Gloves like Rosado described would never be allowed to be used in a boxing match. Boxers hate to lose and some of them come up with cry baby excuses for their loses. If Rosado thought GGG's gloves were missing padding over the knuckles then why didn't he tell his corner. Upon hearing GGG's gloves were missing padding over the knuckles his corner could scream bloody murder to the referee and any other officials they could tell about it until the gloves were inspected. There are posters on here that hate GGG beyond all reason and search and search for anything at all that might discredit him.

I am a fan but I've always said his gloves look flat - maybe he punches the wall like Kovalev to harden them up. Either way it needs to be addressed by GGG himself and make some deliberate concessions immediately after his fights.Last edited by Mike Haynes; 04-27-2016, 09:49 PM.
