Breaking News: Deontay Wilder Changes His Gloves To Everlast MX Horsehair After Seeing Tyson Fury's Gloves

[South Champion]

So Wilder doesn't think gloves should be like that and thinks Fury's gloves were wrong in the last two fights... so went back to gloves he used to wear that are exactly the same. So check that excuse off the list. The gloves were fine. He used to use similar gloves so he knows that they were fine.

And this time, it's Wilder doing the dirty and playing games with changing gloves at late notice.

Wilder was mocking Sugarhill by saying that Sugarhill was complaining that the gloves can't be changed less than 72 hours before a fight, but Wilder said that it didn't matter.

And also... wouldn't the types of gloves be specified in the fight contract? Seems a bit odd they would change them up the day before the fight?

It's determined by the state athletic commission. So it's a state affair. The Nevada commission has a list of acceptable gloves. If you look at that list, there are about 50 plus different gloves on there from numerous brands, from Adidas to No Boxing, No Life. There's a lot of brands on there and models. So you can chose from anyone of those gloves. The weight of the gloves is determine by the division, or more specifically, the weight of the fighter.

You could specify gloves in a contract, but the majority of the time, you use any of the gloves approved by the athletic commission. Even if it were in a contract, it would still have to be allowed by the commission. Some gloves are made with horsehair as padding. There will be a layer of foam, sometimes two layers or so, and then the majority of the padding will be horsehair, either synthetic horsehair or real horsehair.

Someone tell Deontay he can't use his Blasian baby mama's hair in his gloves. She's not really a horse.

Yeah! What the hell does he mean? Is he just going to wear whatever he wants, irrespective of the rules? I have a feeling this fight is going to get out of control. I wouldn't want to be at this fight when it ends. I hope police are there.
