Comments Thread For: Team Rivas Member Details Gloves Dispute in Whyte Fight

[New England]

eddie hearn is a flat out f#cking snake. ruiz will never fight joshua in england. ever. i don't care if joshua wins the rematch, no respectable heavyweight will ever fight in the UK again. boxing is way, way too corrupt. tampering with gloves can get you time in prison. they would be seized in a real country after the fight because of the protest and the circumstances.

this is not a real country. don't box there any more. they are trying to kill people.

I still remember Billy Collin's dad when the Luis Resto fight was over. He grabbed Luis' glove and refused to let go. He was yelling, check his gloves. That ruined Billy, he committed suicide after that. Resto and Panama Lewis were banned for life. Panama got work in boxing later in spite of slicing Restos glove and removing the padding.

Luis Resto was found guilty of assault with a deadly weapon and did time, 8 years? Hearn better be carefull with the games he plays.

Lol yeah they looked like 8oz gloves, wtf they were small like some of the padding was removed

Sounds like Rivas needs to sign with TMT so they can be properly protected by Ellerbe.

Sorry, but no way do i believe that.
He's the main draw, the big kahuna about to get a mandatory HW title shot.
Gave his gloves to an undercarder. Sure.
Everthing needs to be questioned.

What we need to know are more details...loaded gloves, smaller gloves, what were all the details from everyone involved with the glove situation. More information is needed.

I agree with that.
But to me that lame thing he claimed re his gloves is telling.
Unless it was his son or brother. No chance is that true for me.

What happened with GGG vs Rolls? I never heard this.

Unbelievable, Dillian Whyte tried to use every advantage in the book to beat a decent mid level fighter in Rivas!

He would’ve tried to used anything and everything if he would’ve gotten the Wilder shot, no way he makes it to the fight without being busted on something!

Edwards Hearns knew all about this all along and allowed it, The Hearns are disgusting and disrespectfully arrogant!

From talking about taking over America and signing all the top fighters with a war chest! To saying Joshua is the supreme A side and everything including the taste of the food at the venue has to be A side to Wilder needs AJ then saying Jarrell Miller should be banned permanently cuz he failed twice! Now your fighter gets popped and you an co. All knew it before the fight and buy a dirty ref plus judges and then tampered gloves before the fight!?

Knowing all that after the Maxim Dadashev tragedy, Hearns should get his promoters license revoked and suspended indefinitely and the UKAD and BBOC should be investigated and charged with crimes!

Whyte should get a lengthy ban!

Now look at you Edwards, this is what happens when you forget to lay your eggs and try to hatch your chickens!

Goodbye hearns, this was a sweet moment to watch the beginning of your end!

I won't go into everything because there's far too much nonsense to get through. But did you say the ref and judges were paid off? Please do tell me how they were paid off?

Try and hide your deranged insecurity and bitterness in future as it's far too obvious. But then again, none of you Yanks can hide it when you're on your slander slinging.

I let them know how Eddie fixed the ring after the AJ fight, so Parker would fall out if he tried leaning on the ropes vs Whyte. They called me a wanker. Parker used the ropes vs Andy and AJ. He leaned back vs Whyte and landed in the first row.

You really are f3cking deranged aren't you?

You have one serious problem over there in the US. And all over something as small as sport as well. You people make ay skin crawl with how creepy you are.

I'm saying mouse nuts because I'm not going to draw the conclusion the gloves were loaded and Rivaa face didnt look like he was being hammered by loaded gloves and from what I read, Dillian was griping about not being able to use his usual gloves, because his gloves were given to one of the fighters on the undercard. The PEDS are the real and confirmed issue compared to the gloves. But I do want to know if the glove sizes were changed in the process.

Well, if it’s true find out what the undercard fighter is, if he is 147 or below then they’re 8oz gloves and Whyte has a significant advantage.
