Who gives a damn about the padding if skills pay the bills.
Floyd doesn't fight in Everlast or in Cleto Reyes gloves. All he knows is Grant gloves with extra padding around the knuckles to protect his fragile hands. So it's no surprise at all that he thinks Maidana's gloves don't have enough padding.
Mayweather fights in fcking pillows to protect his hands, he can't seriously expect Maidana to do the same.

If you watch the video, Floyd hands the red gloves off to the glove manufacturer, who can't tell that there is anything wrong. "I don't know, I mostly worry about hand protection." Floyd then jumps into the "He wearing the same sh** I am. Put him in the same sh** as me."
Don't be so gullible, it is obvious that this is just manipulation by Mayweather. Lets give the benefit of the doubt though and say there was perhaps an anomaly with the blue gloves. That's why there is a backup pair (which was approved by the commission). This is just Mayweather BS.

People are seriously showing some ingorance in here. There is a reason Ellerbe wont approve the red gloves either. BECAUSE THEY FEEL EXACTLY THE ****ING SAME WAY.
All grant gloves, custom or otherwise is made the same. Color is the only difference. The glove was shipped to the commission in ****ing suran wrap. What did you expect it to look lie. The red glove is just as thin, but cleaner looking do to proper packaging.

It doesn't matter about this pair. Floyd doesn't like it, fine. They have a second red pair, approved by the commission and Floyd still rejected it. He can either fight or walk, but the bottom line is Maidana has a second pair approved and ready to go. Maidana is in the right to wear that second pair and Floyd has no authority to decide against it.

Mayweather requires special rules.
Do you suppose SRR ever threw a tantrum about an opponent's officially approved gloves the day before a fight?

You are showing some serious ignorance.
The reason for a second pair is in case there is an anomaly with the first pair.
