    I wonder if any other boxer has his fights examined to this degree?

          I asked a simple question. No more, no less.

          How many other times have you done a bit of google image research on a hot topic?

            prolly not since most boxers dont really make that much of a big deal over what gloves his opponent is wearing.

              no, you mean great boxers like Floyd don't make an issue when told what gloves to wear, he just wins. His fans didn't complain about it when it was him.

              But fans that don't like Floyd and hate that he keeps winning, whine about glove choice for months on end.

                pretty sure floyd would make a fuss about it too if he was told to change gloves hours before his fight. stop ignoring the big picture here. im sure u know people only made it a big deal since it was a last minute thing and floyd STILL continue to run his mouth saying maidana is easy work. u see thats the difference between floyd and those other great boxers.

                  You're crying and deflecting again, Dunn. If you have no input on the topic, why post?

                  Mayweather is the biggest name in boxing. The glove issue has been one of the hottest topics since the first fight and there's a rematch coming up where the issue has not gone away.

                  I'm sorry I didn't make a thread about what gloves Ray Robinson wore in his 4th fight against Jake LaMotta but I didn't think that would be so relevant at this particular moment in time.

                    The gloves are checked hours before the fight-hence that's why the problem was found and asked to be corrected hours before the fight. Of course, you know this, so the "big picture" point is a little silly.

                    Yeah the timing of it is the issue-yet you and others have an issue now when the gloves have been decided well in advance. So its clear timing isn't the real issue.

                    If Maidana can pull it out he would have done just what floyd did-beat the big name Vegas "house" fighter who chose his gloves.

                      because floyd IS STILL running his mouth. did u miss that part?? floyd is bringing the issue upon himself by bringing it up everytime theres a mic in front of him.
