I would say so. ^ And anyone who denies that taping the gloves to the base of the thumb, across the label, doesn't have an effect on the amount of damage that can help cause; is a fanboy cum drinker by the gallon.

Nah man not even close... people get me confused...
Me knowing that Floyd will whoop cotto in a ring... has nothing to do with me not liking miguel cotto...
i like cotto a lot.. i went to the mosley cotto fight at MSG.. ive been watching him for awhile... absolutely not a single thing against cotto... he just won't beat floyd... not in my opinion...
I dont really hate any fighter... not even tarver or glen johnson..Comment

Cutting? Taping. Taping the gloves excessively; like can be seen in these images. Look at the third picture. Same Reyes gloves but look at Urkal's and look at Cotto's. There are many extra layers of tape on Cotto's gloves.
You know like a twisted ankle? It stabilizes it and makes it rock hard like a cast. There's less bending and a tremendous amount of pressure locked inside.. Like the difference between a clenched fist and a relaxed hand.Comment

i know theres a technique where they pull back on the leather of the glove and THEN taping it all the way to the crest or logo close to the thumb to make the glove softer. they even talked about it on tonight on WNF. But the opposing trainer, Ronnie Sheilds, objected and they retaped.Cutting? Taping. Taping the gloves excessively; like can be seen in these images. Look at the third picture.
