Ch. 2, § 11. Glove Requirements

The contestant or the second is responsible for ensuring that gloves are not twisted or manipulated in any way. If a glove breaks or a string becomes untied during the bout, the referee will instruct the timekeeper to take a time out while the glove is corrected. All gloves will be checked by a Commission Representative and/or Inspector(s) prior to the start of a bout and any snagged, torn, or unfit gloves will not be approved for competition.
