The emotion of the fan

Good point IamInuit, but I reject it haha

I'm gonna recycle my old analogy just for the sheer attention seeking fun of it....

The difference between using PEDS and using load gloves is like the difference between a Male pornographic performer using Viagra or using a prosthetic penis

Seriously though, loaded gloves are such a gross shortcut to success in comparison to any other forms of cheating, bar somehow disabling the opponent prior to the fight.

I don't know but I guarantee that since you used Holyfield, peds will be interjected though it was never part of the question Say it was a Mariusz Wach (Wlads punching bag), then you'd have the best of both worlds with a PED suspension and a commission saying he needed to change his gloves because of possible tampering and missing padding. Aka cheating. Though that seems to have been forgotten or not as important as a American heavyweight champion or a Mexican tough guy with a mullet cast in the villain role and literally found guilty by the announce team before he even made it to the ring.

I think if a guy of Holyfield's stature and accomplishment had been found with similar gloves you would have seen nation wide call for reform in commission standards and numerous investigations. The sport would have been put on trial to a degree as much as Margarito was. I don't think Margarito ran a career with 'loaded' gloves and just skated past commssions, officials and other scrutinizing corner men all the while. I can't buy that and to do so is to conclude he has a truckload of company.

Same thing can be said about guys that come in 15 to 20 pounds over the limit.... something has to be wrong with that. That's more damaging than ped's.

When Gatti took those BEATINGS from DLH and Floyd, I cheered... even though he was being severly brutalized. I cheered because Gatti was doing that same thing to smaller, less experienced guys, for more than half his career.

Good business.
