Why the duct tape Joe?

[MELLY-MEL...]

never seen a fighter use it except on his wrists over the gloves. joe has it on his wrists, and wraps b4 the gloves go on. strange, but it must help him i guess.

Maybe it helps steady his wrists.

Maybe it helps steady his wrists.

yeah maybe. just never seen it used like he does by any other fighter. have you?

[Silencers]

Not that I can recall, maybe it's just something he has done for a long time, he had wrist problems all the way back in his amateur days, I wouldn't be surprised if they started doing that back then.

its not like it wouldnt do the job... its seems as overkill, but if u had bad wrists that would help a lot of that... almost like a flexible brace

yeah, it's just funny to me because they make some real nice tape that is much better than that. i had a ****ed up ankle in college, and my football trainer had this kick ass tape he wrapped it with that was unreal. it got me through 1/2 the season.

sometimes u get comfortable doing something one way... and its been working... so why change it? hes probably thought about it... but hes prolly real used to and comfortable with the way it feels after 45 fights.

I actually had a world class pro give me advice on a hand injury problem I was having and he advised me to use duct tape on top of my wraps for support,he told me the glue doesnt stick either cuz I asked about that.

Rumour has it that the gloves would infact set on fire due to his brilliant speed if it wasn't for the tape.
