Fight Hype is Reporting that the Fight May be OFF due to Maidana Glove Choice

[Baracka Flocka Flame]

"No fight," stated Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard Ellerbe, who moments ago just left a meeting with members of Team Maidana and representatives from the Nevada State Athletic Commission. Evidently, a controversy over the gloves that WBA welterweight champion Marcos Maidana is wanting to use has placed Saturday's fight in jeopardy.
When both teams arrived to select their gloves, Team Mayweather was not pleased with the lack of padding in the Everlast gloves that Team Maidana wanted to use. After hours of back-and-forth conversations between Ellerbe, Robert Garcia, and Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer, the Commission ruled that the specific gloves that Maidana wanted to use were not acceptable, however, the actual brand and style would be allowed provided Maidana use a different pair.
That decision did not seem to sit too well with Ellerbe, who had no problem declaring that the fight would be off. Team Maidana abruptly packed their bags and left the room. It's unclear at this point what the status of the fight is.

Fighters really decide on gloves the night before the fight? I thought it would be known when they sign contracts. Or is this the norm?

That is usually decided at contract. For instance floyd usually doesnt like the Cleto Reyes gloves cause them joints are a KO artist special

Floyd likes them Grant gloves and forces his opponents to use thosr or a brand built like em, cause its hard to get a KO with those gloves. Those arte a boxers glove. Its the type and way the gloves are padded.

Maidana probably shifted around the padding so his knuckles can pierce through. It still weighs the same but less padding around the knuckles. Tyson talked about this and used to do it himself, thats why if you pay attention his gloves used to be pulled way back and he kept pushing his gloves in.
