Based on Garcia's comment after the fight, they didn't get the gloves they wanted. And yet, he was wearing Everlast, which is what I thought Madaina wanted. So what was the deal?
I think there is a process to "break in" new gloves. In soccer, a pro player never goes into a match with cleats right out of the box...in a sense that's what Floyd made Chino do. He couldn't even wear others commission approved...
From REED's Experience, Gloves are "Broken In" in the Dressing Room on Fightnight... Gloves are Delivered by the Commission, Wrapped Up...Most Trainers Bend & Twist the Gloves Various Ways, Others Fold the Gloves Into what Resembles a Burrito & Tie Strings Around It... Bottom Line, Floyd Did this Because he COULD, Which Makes him an Asshole...Maidana Should've Called Floyd's Bluff, when he Threatened NOT to Fight..Sure, Maidana NEEDS the Money A Lot More than Floyd DOes, but there's NOfuckingWAY Floyd was Going to Back Out of the Bout THAT Late in the Game... REED:boohoo:
Makes sense. Floyd didn't want Chino to use the batch with Argentina's colors, right out of the box. Floyd said there was no padding in the gloves which was debunked by Everlast CEO. Those gloves had same density as all other manufactured by the company. He wanted to remove Chino's comfort level with his gloves, Marco just forgot to give a shit... May 2015 will Mayweather-Pacquaio ever be signed??
i was told by someone who has been around the boxing games for years that "everyone" uses old inserts in the wraps like margarito did against mosley. common practice
