Sissy Mayweather looking for excuse to CANCEL FIGHT!!!

[Master]

Completely inaccurate description of the proceedings. But carry on with your phantasy.

A paid Mayweather blogger.... so, soooo sad!

Ron Swanson is not, he is a fair minded poster, however Cyclone may be. What are the chances we never see him again after the Mayweather fight.

I wouldn't say fair because I'm too passionate about the sport and an occasional drunk. But definitely not on a payroll. I could use some extra income if someone could tell me where to apply though

Dude should get on his knees and blow Mayweather for the money he is getting paid. Just wear the standard why would he want different gloves its kinda silly. I don't care for Mayweather but when he had to bend down and take it to get a fight with Oscar he did so tough shit for the other guy.

My opinion is that this is a prefabricated stunt to drum up some last-minute interest/press in a fight that was doomed to pale in comparison to Mayweather's showdown with Canelo.

Canelo's first PPV did the SAME numbers as Floyd's 1rst ppv against BALDOMIR...350,000 PPV buys.

All promotional for late PPV $$$$. Whether Maidana is part of it is irrelevant. Money always pulls this crap to gather more PPV and to disrupt opponents plans. Smart but bitch tendencies

Which just goes to show how misdirected pre-fight hype can be. Maidana brought the fight to Floyd, actually made it exciting. The hyped Floyd-Canelo "showdown" is now being sold as an over-the-counter cure for insomnia.

Canelo was very disappointing but I think Floyd took more chances against Chino because it was at his weight.

Good point. But weight notwithstanding, Chino is a renowned big puncher. The threat of damage to Floyd was still there. The difference is, like Cotto, Chino pressed into Mayweather... making him go into the offensive to fend him off. He didn't just stand and plod through the middle of the ring while Floyd boxed circles around him (ala Canelo).

Dude should get on his knees and blow Mayweather for the money he is getting paid. Just wear the standard why would he want different gloves its kinda silly. I don't care for Mayweather but when he had to bend down and take it to get a fight with Oscar he did so tough shit for the other guy.

IDK man. Floyd wears pillows. If he's forced to wear Floyds style that nearly kills any intrigue the fight has. The first pair was bunk but Maidana should be allowed to wear a different pair of Everlast. If Floyd didn't like that he should have put it in the contract. At least then Marcos could have prepared for what he would be working with. I'll join the critics if Marcos is really forced to wear Floyds style of Grants. But I highly doubt it comes to that.

Good points. As you say his only chance is a left field shot most likely and Grants would definitely squash those hopes.

I'm surprised they didn't plant Panama Lewis in the crowd. Ellerbe yacking that they don’t care about the brand but care about pad and sewing direction. So in other words you care about the brand? Maidana should come to the ring wearing Reyes. Everlast are no more a punchers glove really then Grants are. And Floyd saying "just wear the shit we brought" or something like that is unbelievable after that show. Oh yeah I forgot it was all just a head game right?

Floyd sounded like a baby but he had a point. Those gloves were custom made in Mexico. Most likely in a Cleto Reyes factory where they changed nothing but the cover and lettering. They make Levi 501's in Mexico also. Complete with red tag and Strauss markings. They are not Levi's. I think Maidana orchestrated this not Mayweather. I think Floyd got played. And again Maidana should now go for Reyes and flat out refuse to wear Grants.

They have cleared it up and Marcos will be wearing Everlast. Nobody is sure if he'll wear a different pair of Everlast MX which they had the issue with or a different type of Everlast. I like your idea. If you don't like my Everlasts I'll wear punchers gloves what now haha. Oddly I've come to the conclusion since everyone except Ellerbe acted understanding and fair that this was genuine. Floyd stutters when he has to think. I think it was bad gloves, Garcia didn't know anything going in it just happened and was resolved.

What does made in Mexico have to do with anything if they are accepted by the commission. What is the country of actual mfg origin of all Everlast and Grant Gloves. Boxing is a global not just a USA sport.

I really loved your recommendation to just use Reyes gloves

[Xwetie]

The good thing is, they found this out with the gloves before the game, can you imagine what would happend if this was found out after teh game.

The commission official rejected them and normally I would not care where they are made but in this case it would appear they were part of a publicity stunt and like I said you can buy almost any name product from Mexico whether licensed or not and it makes a big difference where something is made. Next time you are in Mexico buy a pair of button front Levi's or a polo shirt and tell me the difference. In addition if they are now using everlasts that were not custom made for Maidana and its all cool now suggests that in fact something was wrong with those custom gloves and where and how they were made.

It shouldn't matter what kind of gloves Maidana wears outside of a prop. I dont care who Floyd is. The rules on gloves were well in place before he ever came along. Maidana should be able to wear Reyes or Rival. That is unless Maidana gave him the power to decide in the contract like Hagler did against Leonard? I never saw the contract.
