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

    You really don’t see an issue with it? Yea im sure we all know why you don’t see an issue with it. Smh

    If the commission didn’t allow the first gloves WHY was that??

    We’re they tampered with?

    This is a real bad look.

      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.
      I said it from day one Leo was being played big time in this fight.

      Played him like a yo-yo.

        How do we know tank and his team didn’t follow the rules?

        This very well could be a disgruntled fan throwing sh-t on the wall and hoping the stain is bad enough to cause an issue.

        Then other posters, many of whom are also disgruntled, are chiming in suggesting something could be afoul for no reason other than Tank won.

          So did those “disgruntled” fans make Tank change his gloves even after being inspected by the commission?

          No illusions here it’s as clear as day something was up with his gloves.

            You have absolutely no credibility when it comes to discussing this fight.

            You have been trying to disparage this win in every way possible because Tank was favored to win over a Mexican boxer.

            Now, without knowing the rules or even knowing if anything wrong was done, you jump on the bandwagon and then point the finger at me suggesting that I don’t see something because tank is black.

            I don’t know why the commission didn’t approve them. None of us do. Why negatively speculate other than anger that Tank won in exciting fashion.

            Not like he tested positive for PED’s or got caught with illegal wraps.

            If you can find a way to wait for more information before reaching a conclusion in those circumstances, do the same here.

              I'm not saying he cheated. I'm saying if there is the appearance of cheating then boxing suffers. They need to clarify this. Remember the Dillian Whyte controversy?

                Boy they are salty. Santa Cruz lost and it isn’t because of loaded gloves, but poor defense.

                  Changing the gloves doesn’t prove anything was illegally done.

                  You’re desperately reaching for anything that sounds plausible because you’re upset a black boxer violently knocked out a Mexican boxer.

                  You’re whole premise of this fight has been haymon set up Leo to lose ever since the odds were announced.

                    I don’t disagree with you in theory.

                    I just don’t know if the theory applies to this fight given what has been posted.

                      And you have zero say because your biased towards black fighters. I never once favored Leo over Tank I knew he had no chance go back in look at my prior post before making yourself look anymore ******.

                      There is no denying there was some shady ****t going on. Floyd bitxhes and moans about every little thing(like when he cried about Maidanas gloves)yet they pull this ****tt.

                      Again we all know why you won’t conveniently see anything wrong.

                      If those crooked ass coccksuckers pulled some shady ****tt on a fighter with his dad suffering from cancer sitting right In his corner they need to lock those POS up.

                      Now ignore you go hypocrite.
