Tarver-Green pre-fight glove dispute

[GreatestIam]

LOL for a pro boxer a pair of gloves is a pair of gloves because they get the gloves special made be it from reyes, grant, authentic, or everlast.... Green had 4 pairs of gloves made ..for this fight which where grants/ tarver saw that disagreed and mcgirt stepped in and showed him the advantage..

[John Barron]

first it was the handwraps, the briggs fight, then the miracle juice, now it's the gloves. fuckin danny green haha.

[Danny Gunz]

The true story from this fight is that Buddy Mcgirt finally brought one of his fighters to a big win.

[-Kev-]

So maybe what Roy Jones said about Green and the gloves in their fight has some truth to it?

If this is true then Green and his team are a bunch of low life cheating idiots.

If its true!

I think it wasn't a glove problem, Jones complained about the handwraps.

I just love how it's assumed that Tarver is a Hall of Famer! Whether it's to make the loss look less laughable for Green fans or not, I don't know. It seems like every **** and his dog is a HOFer these days. Hatton's a HOFer, Tarver's now a HOFer, Cotto's a HOFer, Margarito's a HOFer, Billy Dib's a HOFer, Glen Johnson supposedly a HOFer too! ****, people are already saying Froch, Ward, and Abraham are HOFers as well as Emmanuel Augustus and Micky Ward.

Please, HOfers are the very greatest, stand out fighters of each era/generation and in the history of the game, not pretty good champions and popular guys.

Mayweather wears Grants because they protect his hands with the "extra" padding.

Everlasts are the actual "puncher's" gloves...

This article makes no sense.

Same with Joe Calzaghe.

Also, is Tarver definitely a future HOFer?

Yeah it seem easier to get in these days, Just been popular as a boxer seem to be enough to make you an HOF'er nowadays..

Exactly! People are overlooking this.
McGirt is a worldclass loser/failure and yesterday one of his fighters won a major bout.
Kudos!

That's a good question. One thing you have to keep in mind is Tarver was the "first" fighter to ever defeat RJJ. Although Tarver lost 6 bouts, he's won all of his rematches except the Dawson fight.

Is he HOF? I think he needs 1 - 2 more big wins...
