Comments Thread For: Mayweather Explains His Position For Rejecting Gloves

[rasdun]

There r some who will defend floyd no matter how much of a b **** theyr look like. I lov pac but admit his blind following of that scum arum has hurt his career to an extent. Floyd followers though, well most, defend evrythin floyd to the death. Lol

This was unnecessary by floyd. The red gloves were approved and he still needed an advantage. Disappointed in the champ for stooping to this level of desperation. You were already 18-1 favorite.

It's sad he even lost 5 rounds. I thought he lost 6.

The annoyance and/or complaints from people on the forum would still be the same even if this WERE in the contract. And you should know that. People still complain about Canelo's catchweight.

I dont think so at all. And people complained about catchweight inky bc fliyd made SUCH a bug deal about it. To extent that when he fought cotto he said he was ubdefeated bc margarito cheated and pac beat him at catchwt. Its hyprocricy to the fullest extent. Thats what I, and I think most people have a pro*** wit floyd.
Its like wit pac- his reasons change evry month( steroid testing, im on vacation, purse split, avenge losses to JMM and Bradley, Arums involvemt).
This , like Pac negitiations and catchwt issues is just one more b**** move from a fighter who is an ATG but doesnt always act it

Stop crying, lmao. Jesus H Christ..always crying when it comes to Floyd. How the **** are you going to bring your own gloves and then say he should've had it in the contract, lmao.

Don't pull that weasel ****, lmao. You fake Floyd critics look like an asses. Floyd should pick the gloves, size of the ring, come out last..and if Maidana wants to be the man, BEAT the man. Brought his own gloves, lmmfao.

I'm glad Floyd exposed the armchair too. Never fought in your life lmao saying, "Yeah" lol.

. Are you seriuos? Shows how much u know bout regulations, of course you can bring ur own custom made gloves. As long as the NSAC approves them then ur ok to go and to ur surprise they did approve them. Got it?:

He brings up a good point about his fight with De La Hoya.

Floyd made a mistake in not putting it in the contract so that is their problem but they forced Maidana ....... Maidana/Garcia were concerned that they could have been black balled by Haymon/GB/Floyd ......

If it was in the contract, it would have been a Sh$tty move but at least it was in writing. This was NOT the case here. This was not right, no matter who you are a fan of.

DLH choosing if the gloves was in the contract. while floyds choosing the gloves were not. thats the point

I think its the other way around. That Mayweather's team had it in the contract that they get to approve of his gloves. And if Maidana pulled out THEY could sue for damages which would be in excess of $40 million.

Maidana really had no choice.

Did you not follow it all? All the contract said was Maidana could use whatever gloves he wanted baring NAC approval. The only move Floyd had was threatening not to fight. I ole had it all if you need more info on it.

And lol at anyone comparing demands in a contract to doing it hours before a fight. It's completely different especially in a sport where the littlest thing can have a drastic effect on a fighter mentally or physically.

People saying it doesn't matter whether it was specified in the contract or not are wrong. If Floyd had mentioned his glove position when they were debating the conditions for the fight, Maidana could have decided whether to go ahead with the fight or not with a level head. By springing it on him at the last moment Floyd's team were almost ensuring Maidana had no say in the matter. If Maidana had cancelled the fight when Floyd made a last-minute issue of the gloves, the last few months of Maidana's career and life would have been a total waste of time - all that training and preparation for nothing.

This was undoubtedly a very dirty move.
