For which fights did Trinidad illegally wrap his hands?

I said for all Tito's fight because Tito's pop said that it made his son hit harder and that he has always w****d his hands that way.
I really don't see how overwraping is an advantage, doesn't that soften the blow and protect the fists.Comment

It's the manner in which the hands are wrapped with the extra material, plus he was applying tape directly on his knuckles which is ILLEGAL.Comment

An excerpt from a article by Orlando Rios:
"In response to the allegations of illegally wrapping his son’s hands, Felix Trinidad, SR. came out saying that he does place a lot of gauze on the hand of all his fighters, but not an excess amount of tape. On the other hand, the representatives of Bernard Hopkins who saw and contested Trinidad’s hand wrapping, tell a different story, saying Trinidad’s hands had four to five layers of gauze and tape, compared to only having a knuckle pad and then tape."
That many layers of tape will essetially create a cast. Tito should have received the same reprimand from the NYSAC that Tony received from the CSAC.Comment
