    Yeah yeah... "found". That mofo got robbed by hookers and got it replaced.

    Point is you said that amount of money doesn't get lost.

      ... a paper check (with names on it) is much more secure than "cash in a plastic bag", I guess...

        He paid maidana to keep from using his chosen, commission approved gloves.

        The first pair that the were not approved was under suspect conditions anyway, since it went a round with the mayweather camp getting mangled and broken in. The next few pairs that the commission got their hands on first were approved though, floyd didnt even touch them and decided he wanted no part.

          I don’t blame him, the video that I saw the commission actually approved those dodgy gloves. I was shocked when I saw that video on YouTube last week. Mentally after seeing those dodgy gloves I would make him wear what am wearing too.

            Yeah, they were sent to the commish and were approved.
            Floyd's people beat up the gloves.

            They kept folding and wearing them.

            Then the red ones were supposed to be OK.
            Floyd did not want CHino to wear Reyes either .
            Nope, Floyd didn't want them and greased Robert and Chino's people for $1.5M.

            That has to be the most expensive glove grease ever. That breaks the $1M Leonard paid Hagler.

              No..that advantage has been taken away and neutralized. The advantage is then with the boxer.

                Wrong, same gloves, equal chance, if you the bigger puncher prove it!

                  That's not logical.
                  Think of it like this: The England national footy (soccer) team has to play a game against a bunch of 50 year old amateurs.
                  The game can be played on a gorgeous, flat grass surface.....or it can be played in a ploughed field with one foot deep mud.
                  Both teams are playing under the same.conditions, but changing the 3nvironment neutralizes the strength of the better team.
                  In the same way, using pillow gloves diminished the advantage the power hitter had. Now it is solely a boxing match.
                  Maybe it's too subtle for you to.jnderstand.

                    Yeah, I understand you still making excuses for a grown azz man, you tell me if he really wanted those gloves then why he takes the money? Case closed go cry somewhere else
