i wonder whats the backstory to haymon and jay? i know haymon used to be in the music biz and i believe promoted a couple of beyonce concerts a few years ago.

i know damn well nbc isn't kicking main events to the curb for haymon after some of the fights they've put on. i don't think main events has put on one bad card on nbc sports. that tureano-stevens, cunnigham-mansour card back in march was one of my fav cards of the year so far.
Al and Beyonce's dad tried to defraud her out of millions of dollars back when Al was in the music biz.

Lets see if politics come in play
:mjlol: at nikkas who think Cotto is scared of GGG...........................


SN:If team Cotto truly is scared of GGG they can easily fight for Mayweather WBC 154/160 title and not be stripped.........Once again Cotto is in the power position, he doesn't have to rush and face GGG, and if Canelo wants a fight, his ass better chase GGG or a legit name...................The loser in this is Canelo, I knew Cotto would bend his ass over for abandoning him post Trout; Canelo losing(gift) to Lara aint help

So after all the fuss Chino says he's planning on using the Everlast powerlock gloves, the same one's for the 1st Floyd fight:patrice:

http://www.fighthype.com/news/article17394.html

It looks like former welterweight champion Marcos Maidana isn't planning on being able to use his preferred choice of Everlast MX gloves for his September 13 rematch with undefeated pound-for-pound king Floyd "Money" Mayweather. According to his trainer, Robert Garcia, he will be wearing the same gloves that he wore in their first fight. "It's gonna be the Powerlock," Garcia commented in a recent video interview with Elie Seckbach of ESNewsReporting.com. Evidently, they've already been training with the Everlast Powerlock gloves and Garcia sounds confident that it won't be an issue.

The Everlast MX gloves were at the center of controversy in their first fight when Team Mayweather objected to the use of a pair of customized Everlast MX gloves which they claimed had very little padding in the knuckle area. Upon closer inspection, the Nevada State Athletic Commission agreed that the customized gloves were not approved, however, a second pair of stock Everlast MX gloves were deemed acceptable.

That decision, however, did not sit well with Team Mayweather, who questioned the safety of gloves that utilize horse hair as part of the padding instead of using all foam. After hours of back and forth negotiations on the eve of the fight, Maidana finally agreed to use Everlast Powerlock gloves, which uses all foam padding, instead. It appears for the rematch, however, a similar last minute glove controversy will not be an issue as Maidana is already planning on fighting in the same type of gloves he used this past May.
