ESPN: Mayweather team challenged Pacquiao's Cleto-Reyes gloves

[Left Hook Tua]

Standard factory sealed Cleto-Reyes gloves that the commission approved and Mayweather agreed Pacquiao can wear in the contract.

Mayweather team tried to challenge them. After 5 hours of arguing, the Nevada state athletic commission denied his challenge.

Expect Roach to challenge Floyd's custom made weird gloves. Those haven't even been inspected by the commission yet. Diva

The difference between Pacquiao and Maidana was very simple: leverage. Manny had it and oh yeah, Manny***39;s not with Haymon #boxing

Mayweather really must be a megalomaniac. Glove Gate 2 right here, for that legacy.

This **** is crazy, both should wear what they want if approved.

They might have tried to be slick during the contract negotiation saying he could wear what they want.

According to those close to the situation, a contract exists between the two camps that states Mayweather will wear Grant-manufactured gloves, Pacquiao will wear Reyes gloves and neither set can be horse-hair-style boxing gloves. It's common for the inside padding of boxing gloves to be made from horse-hair, foam or a combination of both.

But since Reyes only has Horse-Hair or no fully foam gloves, they were gonna protest saying you should have read the fine print.

Mayweather's camp protested the commission's approval of Pacquiao's gloves, claiming the Reyes gloves are horse-hair style and do not satisfy the contract. Reyes gloves are commonly known as a puncher's glove among boxing insiders.

Good that the commission told Floyd to kick rocks.
