Comments Thread For: Team Avanesyan Files Official Complaint With Nebraska Athletic Commission Over Gloves Scandal

[champion4ever]

This is a disgrace. Crawford was clearly hitting Avanyesan with structurally compromised gloves. If the rules had been applied and Crawford had been forced to change his gloves immediately the problem was noticed, then Ava might have survived a whole 'nother round. #Justice4Ava

It's very interesting that you are saying this because I don't ever recall you making such a fuss when Tyson Fury was doing it to Deontay Wilder in their rematch with his tampered and deflated gloves with all the irrefutable and incontrovertible evidence staring you right in the face. What great hypocrisy?

I watched the fight today full and saw the tears however I don't believe in anyway that the tears had ANYTHING to do with the outcome of the fight. At no point did Bud try to punch with the teared side exposed against Avanesyan's face. The knuckle area of the padding is all that landed and the tear happened right before the final rd. It wouldn't have and did not make any difference in the outcome.

I could see if Avanesyan got a cut or something from it. Totally within his right to protest, but not even that. At this point, he's just pulling for anything he can to overturn the outcome. Unfortunately for him, legit win for Crawford. No issues that I could see and this shouldn't even be brought up.

"Nebraska Athletic Commission"

Probably a landline at Bud's uncle's house or something.

Top p4p fighters don’t have these problems

So I guess Ali wasnt P4P???

I’ve said it before. Bud has been cheating this whole time, and he finally got caught. No difference between him and Margarito.

There have been many theories about the boxing glove, but it is hard to say what’s true and what’s not.

Some people believe that the boxing glove is used to protect the hands of the boxer, but others believe that it is used to protect the head of the opponent.

Some have said the glove allows the boxer to hit even harder.

There is no clear evidence to support either theory, but it is possible that both are true.

I am still unclear on the controversy brewing around Crawford’s latest fight. After the umpteenth YouTube breakdown video, I still don’t see what is wrong with his gloves.

Crawford would have won with whatever gloves but Avanesyan deserved better. Busted gloves gives an obvious advantage. They should have changed them instantly the damage was spotted. Ridiculous officiating. Rematch and another pay day for Avanesyan

[LAchargers373]

So are you saying that Crawford knew his gloves were coming apart before he even entered the ring and then once they tore he told the commission he wasn't going to change them? I'm just asking because I didn't see him arguing about it the ref showed the commission and they did nothing, the blame should fall on them not Crawford.

The question to ask is why would Crawford jeopardize his legacy as well as another big potential payday by tampering his gloves for a fight against someone like Avanesyan? The left glove had a split at the stitching along the side and the right glove had a bust at the stitching on the top of the thumb, I saw the fight the knuckle area didn't look manipulated but show me a picture that proves otherwise.

Nah I just said duckfords an idiot. When u are boxing you know yourself when the glove is messed up, if you’d ever boxed you’d understand. Your saying risk his legacy? 1. He doesn’t have a legacy you have to fight great fighters to create a Leah act don’t have to always have to beat them but u gotta fight them 2. It’s more of a risk to himself to break his hand to continue with a broken glove
most fighters of his supposed skill level would just cruise through the round get new gloves the knock out the eurobum legitimately.

its nebraska

crawford probably just generated 99% of all boxing revenue for nebraska of the last few years in that one fight .


you think their commission is going to make any ruling that damages him?

lol good luck

[hhh1200]

Bud just cant catch a break, this would've never happen if he had taken on spence fight instead Sht like this rarely happens with Texas or Nevada commissions

How do you take the Crawford fight when Derrick James is making up excess about Xmas toys like Ronnie Shield when they asked him about Andrade vs Charlo? Spence isn't fight Ortiz (will stop Stan with a body shot) or Ennis both are about to become his mandatories and he doesn't want to take the L from Crawford. Spence will either be sold to Canelo at 168 instead 164. Canelo ain't draining himself to beat the breaks off of Spence or he will run to 154 with Danny Garcia. Haymon will move Jermell to 160 so forget him just saying he will stay at 154 and defend his undisputed titles. Bet my storyline is more true than yours.

End of the video, ridiculous excess by James!
