    Floyd is by far not the only boxer to choose gloves. The only difference is he did his at the last minute. You can complain about him doing it at the last minute, but other than that, this subject is nothing new. And you are literally beating a dead horse. You were just complaining about this subject with Floyd back in July.
    Dirk responded like that for no reason other than he knows he didn't do this for simple "research".

    I didn't even mention his name or quote him. I asked a simple question-and look how far it got us.

      Do you need help reading it?
      It's about his glove selection process in all of his fights. Does he make it a bigger issue when the guy is a puncher? Or did he have nothing to do with any of the selections? That's the question I'm asking here.

      I'm asking the question specifically about the glove selection and whether he is far more picky when it comes to punchers.

      Here is what you posted after I responded to the 1st bolded question.

        I don't question your incredible deflecting skills.

        If you want to ask "Does any fighter get examined to this degree?" - the solution is easy. Make your own thread and you can cry, b1tch and complain as much as you want.

        Answering a question with a question is rule 1 in the deflectors handbook.

          Like I said, you are switching the question after I answered it.

          I noticed you skipped the post where I disproved your "your obsessed/ attacking me" crap.

          Man one tiny question, not mentioning you, and you go off.
          You can't really have this conversations with him about this subject, because he's coming from a more biased standpoint. His dislike of the tactic is why he made the thread in the first place. He has beaten this subject up already in the past. And has clearly said that he thinks it's PATHETIC for any fighter to choose their opponents gloves. And that's a fine opinion to have. But at the same time, you know what time it is if you see such a person bring up this topic again.

            it was ****ty the way it went down the first time around. Very badly done, if it had been written into the contracts well, maidana could have grumbled about it and so on but at least he would have had time to prepare, but when they basically blackmailed him by saying no fight unless you wear these gloves etc etc it was a real ****ty move. it's not so bad this time as at least he is now able to get used to the grants etc. but still a pity that floyd has to insist on getting some bit of an advantage instead of being willing to beat an opponent that is at his best/most comfortable.

            It's all these sort of things that loses floyd fans.

              Floyd is Correct
              Even in GloveGate!
              There are no horsehair gloves in Ba Sing Se.
              There is no Manny Pacquiao.
              There is no Jose Luis Castillo.
              Floyd won 10 rounds against Maidana.
              Ellerbe is only a friend.

                  Is the highlighted question right now,or for all time??Cause all time people got questioned and scrutinized far worse then Mayweather..As it stands right now,of course not(even tho Pac got his fair share)Mayweather is the biggest star in the sport with the most eye's on him..It comes with the territory...

                    And the sad part is that this was the official company line of all Mayweather fantatics around 2012 when the Cotto fight was taking place. They were all outraged about Pacquaio doing catchweights.

                    "I want fighters to be comfortable" - remember that?

                      Do they really not understand this or are they being deliberately ignorant to deflect? That's what I want to know.

                      It's like when they complain about "hatin". Mayweather specifically markets himself to be disliked ffs . If there weren't people that disliked him, he wouldn't be half the star he is.
