Lol, did Kovalev wear bigger gloves against Chilemba?

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

I see another excuse brewing up in this thread.

"Ward beat a fighter with bad hands who couldnt punch back."

Would it kill ya to upload some pics? Put a lil effort into it

The gloves were the same size -- except that Kovalev's were white...

He wore 16oz gloves so his plaster wraps could fit in.#kovagate #mule

Did you? My bad, I didn't see the post, I was skimming pretty fast and that one caught my eye.

Sorry

No worries. If I knew you were going to be so polite about it I wouldn't have been such a prick.

Those weren't 14 oz gloves though. There's not enough in the wrists to be 14. They would not change his ability to KO a guy. Only offer a little more protection for his hands.

if that was the case, everyone would wear them

Wrong. The slight difference in weight is more fatiguing over a dozen rounds and hundreds of punches.

Being more fatiguing definitely hinders his ability to KO a guy

WHy, does ward make people wear bigger glove than him?

Guy, give it up. You were wrong. It's OK.
Love the Clinton sigs though.

Ward doesn't and can't.

Is this a real thread, or an insult to boxing fans?
They gotta wear gloves that weight the sane, and are approved by the commission. There are different makers, so slopight variations, but these days all kinds of colors.

Im just going to go out on a limb and say he went into this fight not wanting to hurt his hands and had no fear of losing to Chilemba. He dropped him in the seventh and knew he was going to win going away and got some experience against an awkward dude. His gloves are noticeably bigger to me and Im not one of these guys who cant be wrong. Is he wearing 14 oz gloves? 16oz? Those arent sparring gloves are they?

To lessen the impact. Get some rounds in against Chilemba. Kovalev is a stud..
