Sergei Ivanov, coach of Russian boxer David Avanesyan, accused WBO welterweight champion Terence Crawford of rigging his gloves.

By the sixth round, Crawford had both his gloves torn. In fact, one glove, the left one, had a seam that was longer than 10 cm on the side, and the other one had its thumb completely torn. Both new gloves from an acclaimed company tear all of a sudden. It happens when there is reinforcement. Look closely at the picture where you can see both gloves. Both gloves are flat, both have huge rips. It looks a lot like they just poured some kind of powder - like plaster powder - in there, then gave it a shot of water and banged it against the wall. It turns out like two knuckles. There's no other way these gloves could have split.

Recall that on the night of December 11, in Omaha (USA), Terence Crawford defeated David Avanesyan by knockout in the sixth round.
 
Avanesyan fought his last fight against Oskari Metz in March, 2022. That fight ended with David's victory by TKO in the first round. Last October, Avanesyan defeated Liam Taylor by TKO in the second round. Avanesyan, 34, has 29 wins (17 by knockout) and four losses.
