I was just on anther boxing site 'side east'boxing. people were complaining about the size of arthurs adidas gloves compared to jermains everlast gloves. One person mentioned they arnt allowed in the usa as contest gloves. IS there any truth in this?? and if it is true then why?? i know kessler uses these adidas gloves aswell. if i've been mugged off then you can laugh lol.
when you didn't have the thumb attachment, people had to worry about thumbing..
when you didn't have the tape, people had to worry about boxers rubbing the lace on their face and cutting them.
they are just safety precautions.. I liked the way gloves looked better when they didn't have the big ass logos on them. I think it takes away from the glove and style of it.
What do you think of the "throw back" idea?...
My favorite Everlast gloves:

These were the 80's Everlast gloves in an era where you didn't tape the f.uck outa the glove and you could see the logo on the wrist part...
I have a cool idea: boxing should wear "throw back" gloves and trunks like they're doing in the NFL. It would be nostalgic...

Those were everlast gloves. Abraham has a deal with addidas and a deal with everlast to allow addidas to put their logo on the gloves. Its just a sticker the gloves are everlast.

There are a bunch of websites you can buy them from.
Just look around for the best deals as well as making sure the website is legit if you are going to buy them.
i like the looks of those better too. I just don't like the new "E" logo to me. It looks too much suited for the new generation.
The old school looking logo looks more suited for the 1910 gloves.
Are you guys still producing the gloves that Cameron is wearing? I don't box, but I like the way they look better than the Everlast gloves Tua is wearing...

What's the difference between the Mexican Style gloves and the 1910? I'm familiar with the 1910's but don't know squat about the MX...
the MX is a glove we launched in Sept that is made in Mexico to the exact standards that the older Cleto Reyes gloves were made with a combination of horse hair and foam. They are the punchers glove, the Protex are a protective glove and the 1910 is a combo of both
yes sir
Abraham wore the 1910 glove from our company. He loves that glove but his sponser is Adidas so he had to sticker the gloves he wore.
in fact all 4 participants wore Everlast gloves
Taylor- MX or Mexican style glove
Dirrell- 1910 customer made in green
Froch- 1910 with a Lonsdale sticker over it
Abraham- 1910 with an Adidas sticker over it
So THAT is Taylors mistake.:smileysex
acouple of day ago on twitter everlast boxing said abraham was wearing everlast with an adidas sticker on em.

Gloves should be weighed and measured (for width). There should be regulations in how wide a glove can be...kind of like Hockey Goalie pads being measured. To wide and they help with defense. I am not a big fan of gloves being used as shields as they are there to protect your hands. Fighters just taken advantage of what they have which is fair but not something I favor. It would be interesting if they could go to 6oz gloves and keep the width to a certain level.
One thing about MMA gloves, which I think are 4oz ?? is that they aren't there to help you with covering up/defense.

These are MMA training gloves. This is a cool size and if you just make it a full glove like boxing, it would be interesting to see how fights turn out with this size.

He should be allowd to use whatever gloves he wants.
thats what i thorght. both camps have to agree on what gloves there fighters are using though. I remember odlh making floyd use reyes gloves as they dont protect protect your hands aswell as the grant or winning one's that floyd useally uses. I've seen a couple of pic's from the fight and abrahams gloves look so much smaller than jermains.
