      This is also part of the reason I love Bernard Hopkins. He called the little ***** out on his illegal wrapping and made him wrap his hands correctly prior to stepping in the ring with him, then he beat the ever loving **** out of him for doing so.

      They just showed Tito's hands again, they look ****ing huge to me. It looks like he has an extra 2 inches of gauze on his knuckles.

      I hope Roy contests this ****, otherwise we can't say **** about it afterward. Just chalk it up to another devestating KO courtesy of Cheato Triniwrap's "skillful punching power".
      i respect your posts man, your a pretty good poster, but hearing you criticize Trinidad for being a cheater and Bernard "Mr. Street" Hopkins being your favorite fighter is quite ironic.

        I don't know what you're watching but his hands look like James Toney's to me.

          Bringer knows he's my boy, but you definitely have a point. If Tito is a cheater, then what is Bernard?

            I'll openly admit Hopkins is a cheater, but that's the difference between me and a Trinidad fan: They can't admit it.

            I'm not going to argue who's a dirtier fighter but I think what Trinidad does is a lot more dangerous for his opponets than what Hopkins does (Hip punching and headbutts).

                I've always said Bernard was a cheater but as I said, the type of cheating he does isn't hurtful to a fighter's longterm health. Can't say the same about Trinidad's.

                  The hand thing was never conclusively confirmed. It was merely an incident with Bernard's camp before his fight with Tito.

                    What I just saw was enough for me, it's been confirmed. So much so that Jim Lampley even pointed it out, and if Lampley notices something it must be serious because that guy has his head up his own ass 24/7.

                      Question: Does Trinidad have a history of hand problems?

                      I don't believe so... which means, that all the wrapping is not for protection...

                      This whole story is pretty ****ing fishy.
