Why Did Tank Davis SWITCH GLOVES Before the Fight?

[kidbazooka]

Let’s see how many in the media mention this suspect as behavior.

My gues NONE!!!!!!!

[Southpawology]

well this is interesting....

[Southpawology]

Interesting, by the way I believe they were Winning not a no name brand.

Winnings have a logo on their gloves though...so where is the winning logo?

[kidbazooka]

Yup all of the winning gloves I’ve seen had logos.

But I wonder did the commission see something off with his first gloves or did team Tank purposely switched gloves at the last minute.

Either way not a good look.

I'm not going to jump to any conclusions, but for a serious, non sarcastic post, Texas has one of, if not, the dodgiest of athletic commissions in the US probably.

Looks suspect, should be looked into but probably won't. Ironic that the same idiots who claim the Gypsy King had cheese graters in his gloves, will also say that there isn't an issue with Tank's gloves.

Yup bingo on both.

If anything is done Haymon will put a quick stop to it and sweep in under the rug.

ESNEWS providing some Citizen Kane type of foreshadowing here! Lol. Ellie is a big Tank supporter but why is this particular video pitched off and in slow motion!

It was published November 1st... maybe someone at ESNEWS leaking this.. lol

Wouldn’t surprise me man. Been telling all of you... you guys need to see the business side of things...

Why would PBC risk PPV in the worst year of boxing?! These are Hail Mary moves because the PBC brand is desperate and it further shows Floyd’s role as an investor at PBC with that “I’m the HNIC” when he did PBC interviews about Spence matchmaking. It’s obvious Floyd is one of the consultant matchmakers for PBC to Al.

Floyd nor Al want to lose money, so they, just like many outfits before them, are simply playing the part too.

The Charlo Rosario bout was suspect! That Rosario guy took a dive!! The context for all of this is PPV fellas. Haymon and Floyd NEED to sell their roster because Fox and Showtime have been non prioritizing in boxing in 2020 because of the economic crash.

IF YOU ARE PUTTING EVERYTHING ON THE LINE WITH HAVING A PPV THEN YOU NEED KO’S AT ALL COSTS!

With Charlo and Tank having KO’s gives Haymon and Floyd leverage to sell more fights to the network even if Covid carries on to 2021. Get it? so regarding the gloves... Floyd was probably doing what Robert Garcia and Chino tried to do with gloves. There was no rival promoter in this. This was all in-house, so again, LSC was the B-Side dummy in all of this.

This seems like a desperate attempt to create a controversy where none exists solely to take credit away from Tank for a great performance.

If the gloves used in warm up weren’t approved then Is there an issue with them being changed?

The selection of gloves needs to follow the rules. Perception is reality. If there is the perception of impropriety then the damage to boxing is done. Boxing is already on the down slide. No need to speed it up.
