Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Trainer Explains Their Protest of Canelo's Gloves

[j0zef]

This was already addressed by Loeffler during the workouts on Sunday.

Said Nevada Commission (this past Saturday) had declined Canelo's desire to wear the new gloves since they hadn't even been tested yet.

1:53:55 mark.

Good find. Glad this was already addressed.

Clenelo a cheat bro.. King GGG giving your boy a beating ese

Byrd was off by 2 rounds (8,9). dave moretti gave lil g round 3 & put whiteout on round 5 so he can give it to lil g too.

adelaide byrd has been off by a wide margin in multiple contests shes a disgrace to boxing and a prime example of how corrupt the NSAC is

When did they make this ruling?
The protest was recently made by Golovkin's team and
there has been no report of the NSAC having ruled the
gloves to be sub-standard. Furthermore, the commission
would not have approved the gloves in the first place had
they been suspect. If the gloves were approved previously,
then yes, Golovkin's complaints are frivolous and insulting
towards the commission.
They are standard gloves with no special construction that
would give any advantage over other gloves.
Golovkin is complaining as a tactic to get under Canelo's
skin, not because the gloves are suspect. Sanchez knows
that Golovkin cannot do anything differently than he did
in the first fight, so they are hoping mind games will give
them an advantage.

This article states that "The Nevada Athletic Commission has
already given the go-ahead for those gloves to be used for
the first time on September 13, at a show that Golden Boy
Promotions will have in Las Vegas".
The gloves had already been approved for use in professional
boxing matches held in Nevada. Golovkin and his team are
just being feminine.

Golovkin fans are acting like Canelo is trying to use
'the infinity gauntlet' instead of boxing gloves.

Why is this dude acting like introducing a new product on this sort of world stage is common-place? Just because they've given the go-ahead for a fight on the 13th, doesn't mean it should be used for a 12 round fight. There's a reason why there's rigid testing for any new product, in any market.

Canelo's choice of gloves for the 1st fight always intrigued me. Why wear Winnings 10oz when Winnings are known the world over to be the greatest pillow for your sparring partner's face, not something you want an actual opponent to avail themselves of. And then you have the fact that Canelo wore exclusively endorsed Everlast MX's several yrs after wearing Grants, and there was footage of him hitting an Everlast Hydrostrike aquabag in Everlast MX 10oz like 3 days before GGG 1. But then Winnings for fight night? Weird.
