However, Aguilar ruled a stock red pair of Everlast MX gloves were acceptable and he approved them for use. Mayweather complained about the padding in those, but Aguilar stood firm and said those were legal.

He then ordered the sides to settle the dispute among themselves, since the commission had approved the Everlast MX gloves. Ellerbe left a meeting among the camps and said, "No fight."

Now this is a more accurate description

OK so Ellerbe said NO FIGHT. There will be NO FIGHT.

I think we can be rather certain the fight will go on. One side tried to mess with the other bringing gloves that were completely unfit. The other side messes back by letting them sweat the potential lost opportunity. In the end Maidana wears standard gloves and gets beat soundly.
