    Go back and watch the All Access for Floyd/Canelo. You will see Canelo lay out 2 or 3 pairs of gloves for the fight.

    They were different colors but I assume they were all the same brand.

      Nobody from Leo's TEAM is in the room here expecting the switch of Gloves being PUT ON... nor is someone from Leo's team watching the inspector approve them with signage. Again, LSC has no say anyways. It's not his show. It's May-Perview!

        If no one from Leo's team is doing their job properly that doesn't mean there is something foul going on. Leo's team has experienced people so I don't get why they aren't there.

        I was just pointing out that there have been times when a fighter has multiple gloves available for a fight.

            The question is, were LSC's Team even notified. If there's a huge narrative from the boxing world regarding ''Tampered'' gloves and inspection why wouldn't anybody from LSC's team want to be present for ''hey, they're switching gloves, you may want to see it again.'' LSC Team: ''nah we're good, we trust everything...'' lol

              lol. It's not about it being signed. It's why isn't LSC's team there when the switch of gloves are happening. that's like... ''yo, they're switching wraps again, do you want to see?!'' lol

                I highly doubt it. If a fighter has multiple commission approved pairs of gloves I don't expect them to reach out to the other camp to let them know which they are wearing.

                  Again. Lol. It’s not about approval or gloves they agreed upon. Do you understand the concept of inspection? You already insinuated an inconsistency regarding why LSC’s team weren’t there. Again, it’s a TMT show! LSC has no say!

                    Every fighter has two sets of gloves that are approved. It’s the fighters right to switch the gloves if he’s not feeling them. If you’ve ever fought before, then you know sometimes your hands just don’t feel right when you put them on.

                    Tank switched to the other approved gloves. I don’t see the big deal here. Tank could’ve had 20oz gloves he wouldve still iced LSC.

                    Im sure this will be formally cleared up and we can move on to more relevant conversations instead of pumping conspiracies.

                    The amount of CIA/FBI/DHS employees on this site is astonishing. Can’t do anything without someone who thinks they know everything creating an alternative narrative.

                    Like Arum said, for something to happen with the actual gloves it would mean a whole lot of people would have to be involved. And in the age of social media and technology who is going to take that chance? Just be logical for Christ sake. For like a solid minute.
