  • Ellerbe and Mayweather Now On Crusade To Block Horse Hair From Boxing Gloves

    If you havent heard, their is major controversy regarding Maidana'sgloves.

    Mayweather & Ellbere learned today that boxing glove manufacturers looking to make a punchers glove use horse hair, that creates minimal padding over the knuckles.

    Regardless of the fact these types of gloves are widely used, and by many stars among the sport, including Cotto vs Mayweather in 2012 (10 oz version).

    Now that Mayweather and Ellerbe have finally found out that horse hair is used, they want horse hair banned in Nevada, and want to transcend the sport. Otherswise their is no fight tomorrow.

    You can't make this **** up.

      Ellerbe kept saying that there would be no fight if Chino didn't fight with a pair of properly padded gloves. Don't gloves vary in the amount of padding they have, depending on brand and style?

      Anyways, the commission has already made their ruling. Unless for some reason they change their mind, Chino can use the red Everlast gloves.

        Nothing convinces people to buy PPV's more than the good ol' "I'm going to cancel my fight because I don't like his gloves" trick. Ah yes, a classic move, should skyrocket sales to 2 million; what a genius move on TMT's part, and totally not a primadonna gesture.

          They're also trying to force Chino to wear Grants...this is pathetic.

            If you can hurt Floyd while wearing them there isn't enough padding.

                  Wouldn't be surprised if they wanted Maidana to not have Robert Garcia in the corner as their next excuse

                    Ellerbe said no fight with those red gloves or any horse hair.
