"Ultimately, Ali would play a role in the elimination of horsehair from most gloves. According to George Horowitz, Ben Nadorf (then president of Everlast) attended Ali-Frazier III in Manila and was mortified by the fact that, as the fight wore on, the fighters' gloves (manufactured by Everlast) began to lose their shape in the heat and high humidity. Thereafter, Nadorf decreed, horsehair would no longer be used in Everlast gloves. Everlast's padding now consists of a mixture of poly foam, latex foam and PVC foam.Originally posted by bender2000 View Post
Meanwhile, on June 18, 1963, Clay (18-and-0 by then) fought Henry Cooper in London. Marking time until he could make good on his prediction of a fifth-round knockout, Cassius got clocked with a left hook with five seconds left in the fourth round. He fell through the ropes, rolled back into the ring, and staggered to his feet, quite literally saved by the bell.
There are two kinds of being "hurt" in boxing. The first is when a fighter feels pain; most often from a body shot or blow to the ears, eyes, or nose. The second kind of hurt is when a fighter is dazed and loses control over his reflexes. At that point, Clay was feeling no pain.
"Cassius split his glove on the seam near the thumb," Angelo Dundee later explained. "Actually, it happened in the first round. I spotted the tear and told him, 'Keep your hand closed.' I didn't want anyone to see it because everything was going our way. Then, at the end of the fourth round, he got nailed. So when he came back to the corner, I helped the split a little, pulled it to the side, and made the referee aware that there was a torn glove."
No back-up gloves were available and, after a brief delay, the fight resumed. " I don't know how much time that got us," Dundee acknowledged. "Maybe a minute, but it was enough. If we hadn't gotten the extra time, I don't know what would have happened. I think Cassius would have made it through, but we don't have to answer that question."

I'm TBE. I can beat him and his trainer the same night. Let him use whatever gloves he wants, if they are within regulation. I will still whoop that a$$. Maidana is a class C fighter. What's the deal. Algeria is unknown to me and Is comcoming from 140 to fight Pac. Before I get accused of being a Pac fan.Comment

Man I can imagine with all the surgery he got for Miss Jackson most of it must of been spent on her snatch with how small of a weiner Floyd has...
It'd take ALOT of work for Floyds to touch the sides with that tiny thing

You guy got me rolling this morning. It doesnt matter what Floyd does a lot of you guys are going to hate him. Floyd has done nothing to you personally, but reading some of these comments you would think floyd either slept with someone close to you or messed your life up. Its so hard to be positive in today's world. We have to many Indians and not enough chiefs.
The fans dont keep him relevant, the haters do...Comment
