    POst your real issue. A sides choosing the gloves or flexing power isn't something new. As I said in an earlier post in the thread-if timing or floyd being an unstable, uberemotional, egomaniac is your issue-fine, I get that. If you hate that floyd has all this power and uses it this way-fine, thats a fair gripe.

    All this stuff about a side glove choosing and tainted wins is NSB queefing-which a true queef genius would surely be able to spot.
    I have noticed Floyd defenders keep referring back to what Oscar dictated to Floyd during their fight, now Floyd keeps doing the same in his bouts. The sad truth is Floyd has surpassed ODH financially sure but as a successful businessman/boxer- he will never reach that level.
    Floyd flexing his "A" side power was giving his first fight glove issue a pass. Now that its written in contract for the rematch, floyd is not giving the public or Team Maidana the "illusion" of any advantage. The no risk approach is TBE! Straight b.... move.

      The floyd defender card is played out. That is just one example of glove choice.

      I can't predict future success so If you believe what you posted-cool. Only time will tell.

      If you feel its a ***** move or a problem fine-have you always felt this way? I doubt it. That is my whole issue-where were posters on glove choice before this fight?

      If wearing the gloves he wants is the only way you think Maidana has a chance to win-then IMO you are putting far too much emphasis on this. Is Maidana undefeated with "his" gloves?

        punchr keeps avoiding that question.
        let me ask you this, Floyd is a puncher like Maidana? if its not the factor on Floyd-Maidana, why the hell floyd still refusing to give Maidana's choice of gloves? answer that and stop ducking that.

          You refuse to answer the question.

          I agreed with your premise that gloves make a difference already, why do I have to agree again? IDK why floyd isn't letting him wear the gloves. Most likely because he doesn't want him to wear the gloves.

          Now will you answer the question please.

            Floyd probably had an entire training camp to work with Oscars glove of choice, big difference from the situation with maidana. So imo it doesn't enhance floyd's win on Oscar. He got full credit anyway imo.

              Interesting point. If you watch any tape from any training camp, fighters don't use the fight night gloves. They have gloves of different weight, up to 18-20 oz, for training and sparring.

              At least you answered the question. I can respect that.

                    OK, now I understand. Glove choice is only an issue when punchers can't wear puncher's gloves. I wonder why ODH didn't undertsand that and chose floyd's gloves. Thats foranother discussion.

                    Floyd is doing it most likely because he feels it gives him a mental advantage-which is likely the same reason ODH did it-which undermines your point above.

                    Its simple-A sides do things like choose gloves and pick ring size to give themselves a better chance to win. Guess what-your favorite fighter, whoever that fighter is,if he is the a side, has done the same things and other stuff at some point.

                    As cotto made clear this is what fighters works toward-being able to dictate to the opponent.

                    Now can we put this to rest or do you want to whine some more about floyd being more powerful than you can stand?

                      Its floyd-its about "I'm the boss, do it my way or else you don't get the fight." Its about power and control first, then the mental advantage.

                      In other words-its floyd being floyd.
