why doesn't Maidana just wear Provodnikov/Matthysse gloves?

    the commission didn't refuse them. they had the normal amount of padding that an everlast mx glove in 8 oz would have. mayweather refused them. no two boxing gloves are alike, and both teams need to approve of the gloves before the fight. several pairs are brought to the arena by an everlast rep. from those, a pair must be selected.

    floyd mayweather refused to fight against maidana in a set of everlast MX. several pairs were brought from the factory, and he refused them all. the commission approved every single pair. they came straight from the factory to the commission.

    is everlast in on it? that's what you're suggesting, whether or not you're smart enough to understand what your line of rhetoric implies.


    according to many sources, al haymon, who manages / advises both fighters, got chino a lot of extra money.

    it was in the contract that maidana was going to use everlast gloves. floyd would have had to breach the contract not to fight. he'd probably have faked an injury in the dressing room.

      Everlast rep at the event watching it go down speaks on it.

      "We don't do custom padding." Also says many fighters who fought in it recently in Vegas and that its been the same design since 2008. And that the RED and CUSTOM gloves are the same exact copies.

        Wrong, wrong, wrong again.

        The commission DID NOT APPROVE the first custom MX gloves that were requested. They flat out REFUSED them. Don't speak on anything unless you have some substance. I won't even bother reading the rest of your post knowing you have no actual facts and would rather mislead and post false info than look into the truth.

          If the Everlast rep says the custom graphic and red gloves are the same exact things. How does one get approved and one doesn't?


          This means you believe they tampered with the gloves right? <- Answer this question

            His gloves weren't custom. People are clueless here.

              The blue MX Everlast had no padding in them and were flat out REFUSED by both Floyd and the NSAC right on the spot. Stop making things up. I know you have a deep hatred for Floyd but you need to put that hate aside for a second.

                Please respond to my posts.

                Also if you watch another video, Floyd didn't say anything about the gloves until Ellerbe made it an issue to him.

                  gabion, the everlast rep, says in the edited video that "both pairs were approved." he could be referring to two different sets of red MX gloves, but it's clear that MX gloves were approved. two pairs, actually.

                      They were refused because the custom color scheme wasn't ran through the commission before the check. Get your facts straight. You sound like a total knob. Schaffer himself said the non approval of the gloves had nothing to do with structure.

                      The commission didn't want to hurry Floyds feelings but they wanted to be fair to Maidana also. Therefore approved the in Stock gloves that were identical besides color.

                      Read up and get your facts straight before spewing so much **** you ignorant half wit.
