The pair of light blue gloves were not approved. They approved the Everlast Gloves.
Floyd's weakness. Body shots.

Maidana landed body punches to Floyds back, shoulder blade, and kidneys...and the only thing Floyd ever said was keep em up. Floyd is too strong and too professional to show hurt from body shots. I've never seen Floyd hurt to the body and I know that he has been in fights just like any other fighter.Comment

Floyd got hit in the body because he chose to get hit in the body rather than the face. But...I wouldn't call this a weakness.
However, if Floyd does have a weakness to conventional fighters, it's a fast, hard straight left jab - Floyd will eat these things all night and they will disrupt his timing, too. If you see a fighter fight Floyd who doesn't have a good straight left hand, then you are already talking about a No-Hoper. Also, breaking Floyd's defense requires energy....lot's of it and that's why I knew the likes of Canelo and Cotto were No-Hopers.
If Chino fights Mayweather again, then I suggest he learn to move his feet forward very quickly like Pacman or Bradley so he can get that Left Jab connecting. If he can master the technique, he can win the fight.Comment

On another note, I've never seen Floyd visibly shaken by a body shot. His midsection is titanium.Comment

Guys, Pac's fans are trained to post like this, lmao. To this day the believe Pac was never knocked unconscious for 4 minute and awakened by smelling salts.Comment

I think Chino's strategy last Saturday was great, he just slowed down because of his stamina issue. Had he have the stamina of PAC or Bradley (prior to 2nd fight with PAC) he could of stay with Floyd all throughout the fight. Plus I truly believe that had he wore his usual gloves it would matter as far as the impact is concern compare to what he they made him use.
Its unbelievable he tried to use them.
Once everlast brought in gloves they were checked and approved.
Aside from the fact different gloves weren't gonna make him land cleaner shots.
Its always something to discredit a Floyd winComment
