    He even tries to dictate which promoters potential opponents must abandon. No surprise he dictated that Maidana had to wrap head gear around his gloves

        Very true. It was very unfortunate that he had to stoop to that level, but it's happened many times. Maidana should walk away if he pulls it again in the rematch.

          But but the gloves were illegal doe. Its amazing how people don't try to understand facts before postulating theories and making their minds up. Its like the margarito handwrap scandal i can guarantee you that 98% off people still don't clearly understand the facts as they happened but yet they have strong opinions and are quick to brand him a cheater.

            It is what it is and what it was is Floyd did what he could to take away or reduce Maidana's ability to dish out pain.

            The fact is, Garcia offered Floyd the opportunity to use the same gloves as Maidana, thereby still making it a level playing field even though far out of Floyd's comfort zone.

              that's not much of an excuse. What I will say is that it seems from numerous reports like the Nevada state athletic commission also did not approve of the glove choices saying that redistribution of weight gave too much padding to the wrists and not enough on the knuckles. This was a custom-made glove, and that's hard to trust. This issue should have been sussed out days if not weeks before the fight, but safety is first and apparently Mayweather wasn't the only one who had a problem with the padding on the gloves***8212;the commission took issue as well.

                And it doesn't help that most floyd/broner fans get their daily news as it relates to them from here.



                can someone try and embed it please. Its basically worldstar hiphop trying to insinuate maidana is a cheater.

Let people cheat it doesn't matter if he kills the other person..the same with maidana..who cares if he used gloves with nearly no padding..you people are ******ed..if that happened with any of pookyquiaos opponents pook-turds would commit suicide because of the injustice lol
