Robert Garcia Talks Ariza Departure and Maidana's Gloves For Mayweather Rematch

Link 1
Link 2

- Has no hard feelings against Ariza and still considers him a friend.

- Decision came from fighters and not Garcia.

- Doesn't feel strength and conditioning coaches are needed.

- "I became a world champion without a strength and conditioning coach."

- Doesn't think there will be a fight if he and Maidana demand to use MX gloves.

- Were forced into using the Power Lock gloves in the first fight.

- Fine with Power Lock gloves as long as Maidana can train with them and become accustomed to how they fit.

- Had to use Vaseline to get the Power Lock gloves on Maidana.

- Will have Everlast send over every 8 oz glove that is commission approved so he and Maidana can choose the best one to use.

how about the tampered gloves ?

People ignoring the fact that Maidana tried to cheat his way in with custom gloves. Not sayiong Floyd was right about refusing approved gloves, but Maidana got paid and he agreed to use them so he should shut up and keep the cash. They should have fined Maidana for trying to cheat

they can't fine maidana for gloves that were not tampered with..they delivered to the commission sealed and they approved them...key word:approved...and Floyd rejected maidana's second choice of gloves...so he was on some bullshyt for no reason

so you're saying the first pair that the Coimmission rejected were not tampered with ? Maidana's first choice was custom made and tampered with and he even agreed to use other gloves. Floyd rejecting approved gloves was BS but let's not pretend like Maidana was not guilty about his cheating ass gloves where the padding was re...distri.....bu...buu..buu.t...ED

Word to my good dude Ellerbe

Yea, I've brought that up several times.. Maidana is a cheater and probably been cheating like that his whole career.. his whole career is questionable. . With that being said, Floyd still of course is a bytch if he doesn't allow Maidana to use "non tampered with" commision approves gloves

If I get presented some gloves with no padding N they get axed...I'd have a hard time letting my opponent wear another pair that was made N shipped out at the same time approved or not

I'd be thinking if the first pair was tampered with then this approved pair can be easily manipulated N end up exactly the same way...since they the sane make N model N made the sane time as the Argentina mx

As far as not letting chino wear Reyes that's wear Floyd was on bs

That's where the A side role come to play. Tyson was stupid when you look back cuz he never really made demands meanwhile Sugar Ray Leonard was king of demands and people still respect him til this day.

Sad when true boxinbg heads letting their emotions in the way of their common sense

Floyd did try to reject approved gloves. Floyd's camp wanted Maidana to wear the same Grant gloves that Floyd was wearing so they complained (even threatening to cancel the fight at one point) over the Reyes gloves and the Everlast MX gloves that Maidana eventually wore both of which were NAC approved.

Stupid?? Nah he just wasn't a p*ssy... He didn't care much for petty demands because he knew in his mind he was going to destroy you and wasn't much you could do about it and as long as he got the lionshare of the purse he gave ZERO fukks.. How intimidating would Tyson still be if he told his opponent, "Ill fight you bu but you cant fight in these gloves or these gloves"

Sources say that Haymon is considering transitioning to an online subscription service that would bypass television networks and PPV carriers by dealing directly with consumers. Toward that end, he is said to have hired Alex Balfour (who was head of new media for the London Olympic Committee). Balfour is believed to be soliciting applications from potential employees who would like to work for the subscription venture. In that regard, his website ( www.alexbalfour.com ) says only that he is “currently the Chief Digital Officer of a new, exciting, start up in sport.
