Floyd let Cotto use MX gloves its got nothing to do with the MX gloves and a awful lot to do with what they tried to do .

My understanding of the issue was that both of the gloves were the same and the only difference was the color.
That is what the everlast rep who was present at the meeting said.

Originally posted by Sugar Adam Ali View PostI'm pretty sure I read it here on boxingscene, in an article.. May have been espn, but the early reports said there was some sort of glove defect.. Afterwards when Floyd complained about the 2nd gloves that was ok'd by commission, that's when the stories leaked out about the Maidana camp stripping the gloves. But there was no investigation, suspension, hearings, etc. which leads me to believe the first defective glove story.. My suspicion is that the only defect was they weren't in the original plastic, that's about the only legit detail that has come out about the defective gloves

Originally posted by RAV3N View PostFair enough, I will personally believe the everlast rep who was there at the time, Floyd was just pulling his bs mind games.
Everlast guy is probably 100% correct! but I highly doubt he would ever claim that his company would supply a defective glove, if that was the case..
Either way Floyd is being a diva about these gloves
