    Seriously, Mayweather is an awesome fighter but that was a bytch move. If I'm Maidana I would have it specifically in the contract he can wear Everlast MX gloves or cleto reyes or no fight.

    Now, this isn't a debate on "IF" Maidana had his gloves he would have won blah blah blah, simply a discussion that a fighter should have the right to wear any model glove he wants as long as they are approved gloves.
    i am not for a rematch....

    but if it happens, maidana should not cave in on the gloves issue..

      Look who's talking. I FIRST asked you the most simple question and you still have yet to answer. And then said feel free to criticize Floyd about the glove issue. And still no answer.

        Is there any chance Floyd will be man enough not to make such a ridiculous demand? Manny Pacquiao was coming off a devastating knockout loss and he let Brandon Rios wear MXs with no objection.

          Pacquaio wears a similar Cleto Reyes style glove though.

            Why shouldn't he? Mayweather can wear Cleto gloves too or whatever he wants, I am sure Maidana don´t have a problem with that.

              Floyd has never used those kinda gloves in competition. And even those style of gloves are kinda recent. They were approved in 2008 I think. And then as you know, Floyd has hand problems. He doesn't even use normal Grant gloves. He uses an orthopedic style Grant glove that protects the hand more.

              And I didn't criticize Pacquaio for choosing to wear the gloves. Just pointing out that Pacquaio wears the same kinda glove himself.

                Do you honestly believe that Mayweather would allow Maidana to wear everlast mx gloves and have it put in writing? He and his team strong armed Maidana into wearing the pair of their own choosing even when the contract said otherwise.

                If this rematch happens, if it even does happen, Maidana's glove status can only take a turn for the worse (ie. More padding) and not for the better.

                    If I was Maidana I would be like, only way I'll rematch is if you allow me to wear MY gloves. If not, **** off.

                    Then Wtf is Floyd gonna do? Who is he gonna fight in September that will sell as good as a Maidana rematch? There's no one...

                    These fighters need to start calling this p*ssy boy's bluff and stand up for themselves. Maidana shouldn't had accepted the money to wear those sissy gloves.

                      What does him wearing a certain style of gloves have anything to do with his opponents choice of gloves? Are you insinuating that if fithers don't wear similar gloves that it's okay for one to force the other to wear what he is using?
