        Everlast CEO Neil Morton defended his company's manufacturing process for the boxing gloves and said he believes the dispute was simply a case of Mayweather seeking a psychological edge.

        Morton said the custom gloves are manufactured exactly the same way as the stock gloves and the only difference is a different color of leather is used. He said he is willing to cut the gloves open to prove that to anyone who questions the validity. He said he didn't understand why the custom gloves were ruled invalid.

        However, it could be that the commission was simply trying to broker a deal and placate Mayweather, given that the stock red gloves had been approved.

        "Nothing changes in the process from glove to glove," Morton said.

        He said that when a fighter such as Maidana wants to wear Everlast gloves in a custom color, leather is found that most closely approximates the color the fighter wants. He said there is what he calls a tech pack for each model of glove Everlast produces.

        That tech pack has the gloves specifications and ensures they're all identical, Morton said.

        "The process is very simple," he said. "The athlete says, 'I would like this glove in this color with this artwork on it.' In this case, Maidana wanted to wear an Argentine blue color and I think maybe he wanted them with the flag on it. That, I can't quite remember. But then we put a Pantone color on it, we attach it to our tech pack and we send it to the factor and ask them to produce 6 to 10 pairs of the MX gloves using our tech pack in this Pantone."

          100% guaranteed that's going to happen because they made such a big deal out of it. Now, whoever wins this fight, there'll be a "what if" due to this glove issue.

              Great, but i never understood the problem. If that pair of blue gloves was not approved because it did look worn out, how come they didn't check the other blue gloves that were factory sealed they looked much fresher to me. At least Chino gets to wear the red ones instead them Grants, but those custom blue ones looked bada$$

                  Slick black fighters like Hopkins and Mayweather, like to play games with gloves and wraps. Check the history books.

                    Since the gloves were approved by NSAC team Mayweather would of had a lawsuit on their hands and they would have lost it because he refused to fight even though it was under the terms of their contracts. Maidana's team would have said they did nothing wrong and lost out on money, and they would have been payed without fighting Mayweather.
