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

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

Originally posted by The Big Dunn View Postno, 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.

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

Originally posted by Evol View Postpretty 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.
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.
