Gabe rosado said ggg gloves were missing padding

[deanrw]

Lol exactly.

Surely a Grant representative could be reached for comment on this matter. Are there still boxing journalists on Boxing Scene?

Actually Steve Kim has already interviewed Grant E Phillips himself and will be posting his comments sometime soon.

Grant Elvis Phillips had some interesting things to say about this glove situation. Will be in an upcoming story"

I'm no glove expert but anyone who knows can see rosado was using an older model grant as opposed to ggg who had a pair of the newer grants. The older ones look big, pillow like for more protection. While the newer grants are more a combination of the older grants and a punchers glove like reyes gloves.

Nice. did he say when exactly he'll post it? good reporting right there.



inb4 gloves actually were tampered with and Golovkin gets stripped of his belt, Rosado fight turns to a NC and he gets a 12 month ban from boxing and Abel Sanchez goes to jail for attempted murder

[boliodogs]

Yea thats why he's bringing this up 9 months later. If he felt that way he should have said something immediately while it can be proven.

Exactly. Something this important and he says nothing bout it until now? I don't believe a word of it. The boxing commission and a member of Rosado's team are by the rules supposed to be there to approve the wrapping of GGG's hands and the gloves before the fight starts. How then could GGG's team remove padding from his gloves without leaving a rip in the gloves where they pulled out padding? This is one of the worst, lamest excuses I have heard a fighter come up with for losing a fight. Rosado will probably get KOed again tomorrow night.

These are some serious implications that Rosado is bringing up, but the dude seems to be very genuine so I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. This issue needs to be addressed.

The issue was addressed, checked out by the commission and the they said nothing was wrong with the gloves

Rosado isnt saying golovkin tampered with the gloves, he inspected the gloves brand new, right out of the packaging from grant
