Rumor from backstage...hearing Lou Dibella say that Chavez Jr. doesn't want to weigh his gloves. No confirmation on this yet

Spoke to @FreddieRoach. @jcchavezjr1 is using brand new gloves and there is no rule that days they have to be weighed.
i'd lol if true, watching everybody flip out when they have minimal to no details. However, I'm with everybody else, there's no reason your gloves shouldn't be weighed. They're always weighed by the commission, you can't just refuse it.
nope they're actually not always weighed
I wouldn't read too much into this - sounds like the typical pre-fight shenanigans that a boxer will pull, to get inside their opponent's head. The Klitschkos are notorious for these petty tactics..

didn't amir khans Reebok weigh to much or too little for his last fight with Reebok sponsoring?
yes they were a LB under weight and were actually 9oz gloves adn they had to be changed
theres no need to check in texas and the commission doesnt even provide the gloves you can bring your own pair
Let the commission do their job?
there is little to no commission in places like arkansas and texas
the gloves must be the same weight in a fight
and bringing your own is madness
Are we looking at yet another case of cheating in our sport? I wouldn't doubt it. Freddie "The Dope Coach" Roach is notorious for doing anything and everything to get his fighter's an advantage from catchweights to rehydration clauses to performance enhancing drugs to illegal handwraps. Freddie openly admitted to wrapping Oscar De La Hoya's hands illegally in the Mayweather fight and there is also a video showing him illegally "stacking" Manny Pacquiao's handwraps too. So we shouldn't be suprised. It just kills me that people turn a blind eye to this and let people just get away with it. You can bet your life that Chavez will get away with this and that some more dodgy tricks will be played between now and the fight. If I was Andy Lee I would pull out right now because he's undoubtedly going to get screwed in more ways than one. It really is a no-win situation.
It makes me sick to my stomach that an overrated scumbag like Freddie Roach is in the Hall of Fame. I think that he's even more overrated than Manny "I let other people make my decisions for me" Pacquiao which is saying an awful lot.
Chavez Jr does not need to cheat to beat Andy Lee. Regardless of his glove weight. Lee hasn't done anything but have Emmanuel Steward as a trainer. Chavez will win. Ul
Well this is what i think....In boxing there is always egos and in this situation Chavez is the star or at least the person bringin people in the venue,unless they have to,I don't see why should they give in to lee's camp request,just because lee wants to?its like saying to Chavez ,lets do a blood test right now,i am willing,It doesn't matter,Lee is nobody to be requesting anything,on the other hand,they can always weight the gloves when the match is over,I really believe this is nothing but mind games and roach dont play those games.I think it doesnt matter what chavez does,people always complains,I have heard people complaining about him moving to 168,when many many people were saying chavez just hides in 160 because he cannot handle 168 pounders.Many are even saying he is doing that to avoid martinez,when in reality martines should move to 168 as well.Anyways people is never happy and always find something to make it a controversy.Why do you think the comission denied the request,because they are in chavez side or because lee has no right to ask for that?...Can you imagine if bradley would of requested the same to pac?there is no way pac would of accepted.....Anyways,many idiots in this site that dont stop and think,seemed they always blind with either envy or are just mouse pushers that think know a lot..This is my opinion.....BTW,what happens if chavez KO's lee?will that be because the gloves?or will he get his props..nah,people will come out with something and myself isnt a fan of chavez nor canelo and i am a real mexican,born and raised!!
dude its not the same
the gloves have to be the same weight
there's only one way to do that- WEIGH THEM
both fighters "brought their own"
this is not allowed anywhere else but the southern lawless commissions
gloves have to be agreed on and weighed !! this is supposed to be a championship fight
you cant even "bring your own" to white collar boxing or tough guy matches
Recently- AMIR KHANS reeboks were a pound under and had to be changed to everlasts

I stopped reading this hot ass garbage right here. I'm afraid that your dumbassedness may hypnotize me.
Wow, can believe Jr. is acting like a Pendejo, he should let them weight his gloves period no matter if he does not have to. Lee should say no weight no fight and do a Mayol on him. He's just making himself look bad, if there is nothing to hide, then why don't let them do it?
Not only will Lee be robbed, he will be getting hit with 5oz and plastered gloves all day
This just confirms what i have thought all alone,you are a real idiot and wouldn't be surprised that you didn't finish elementary.What you are doing behind a computer is called defamation,when have the chavez camp been giving any indication that he wears plaster?or why or how can you say that? and 5oz gloves?idiotic to say the very least.This is nothing but mind games and they tried to play it against a very savvy camp....Sometimes I wonder if you really think what you write or you just say it for controversy,since that is why this new generation does,write crap online and then try to pass it on like its a huge polemic on the matter...Come on!!!
Yeah, Lee is getting robbed on Saturday night
