I could literally make up a negative rumor about Floyd, make a fake twitter and tweet it, an then post it here and you would believe it instantly.
I heard Clottey got paid off to lose to Pac. My source is many people, including Joshua Clottey.
That is actually a credible rumor. I guarantee you won't even consider it, since it doesn't fit your agenda.Comment

why do ppl keep perpetrating this sparring gloves crap. the gloves maidana used werent sparring gloves. does anyone know what a sparring glove is? the gloves he used werent punching gloves but they werent grants either. they were everlast's middle of the road competition gloves. somwhere in between power on protection.Comment

Well, Maidana's team asked after the fight in the press conference if next time they'll be able to use their gloves so even after the fight they felt the gloves hindered them. Also, Maidana never used those gloves and said it was hard for him to even get his hand in them there was so much protection. Matthysse himself said the sparring glove comment so even the fellow Argentinian feels the same sentiments as so many fans. Either way, I hope Maidana uses his regular gloves next time.Last edited by Kagami Taiga; 07-02-2014, 04:56 AM.Comment

Yeah, just let that sink in for a minute. Maidana has become Madonna.Comment

If it's true, Maidana had no choice other than to take the money or let Floyd walk away from the fight.Comment

the self-proclaimed TBE paying big $$$ to gain advantages over an opponent.....
nothing new here...
but this is really disturbing....
one moneyed fighter dangling big money to his opponent....
and this reminds me of the ortiz drama....Comment

if floyd paid 1.5m that means maidana camp was right to demand the gloves they want to use..contractually....otherwise, why floyd has to pay 1.5m?
floyd walking out of the fight is like a very powerful magnet to get sued then....
for he will be answerable to very big $$$$ that dwarfs the 1.5m...see where i am going?Comment

would all the corporate sponsors, showtime, mgm just let floyd "cancel" the fight due to him not liking the commission approved gloves? regardless of what floyd's chief nuthugger ellerbe was saying "we ok, we dont have to fight" of course you have to fight, you dont just cancel a fight a day before. millions of dollars had gone into the event at that point and to say "we ok!, we dont need to fight" was just hot air. Maidana should have stood his ground and said im gna wear the commission approved gloves.Comment
