What was the deal was with the change of gloves they were talking about on TV?

They said on tv that Askin couldn't fit his hands in the original gloves.

Do both boxers have to wear the same make of gloves? - sure I read that somewhere.

Yep, for title fights in the UK it must be the same gloves.
Seems like world governing bodies have a different approach as you often see different manufacturers.

Yeah matty couldn't get his hands in the gloves.
They had spare gloves so wasn't really a problem.
