    You have no answer to the fact that Tito used illegal wrapping methods to give him an unfair advantage. (In other words, cheating.) So you conveniently ignore the wrap issue and say I'm "in love with hate." That's a dumb way to put it, and also false. I'm assuming you're saying I hate Tito, and I don't. I just don't think cheaters deserve any credit. You can try and rationalize it and defend Tito by saying he never went to trial, etc. But the fact is he's still a cheat.

          I don't think he is as past it as people perceive him as. He didn't look too bad last time out against RJJ who is a LWH and after Tito had been inactive for a couple years. Tito just has trouble with defensive cautious fighters, and has only lost to the very best of the sport....I think he beats just about anyone as long as he gets into the kind of shape where he can fight at MW.

            I agree, but that shows How bas the MW division is right now.


            Tito should just retire. he was here in my hometown doing some charity work for some ill kids. I had 3 pictures with him. Dude is fat as hell to make MW, he is like 200 pounds.

              Yeah, I saw how out of shape he is now, when he was with Juanma at his fight with Penalosa. It would be nice to see Tito again in the ring but only if he is going to be something like the version of himself who vaporized Joppy.

                    four
                    or five layers, in contrast to being a layer of gauze, with a knuckle pad which was gauze and then layers of tape. They had four of five layers of gauze and tape."

                    It's been speculated that by applying tape onto the skin, that it takes on a 'cast'-like hardness, but according to noted trainer Teddy Atlas, more needs to be done to have that effect.

                    "That happens only if you put layers of tape on top of that, intertwining layers of both gauze and then compressing that gauze on tape on top of the gauze over the knuckle area"

                    It a was a psychological ploy that worked.
                    the way they w****d trina's handwraps was just as illegal as what was on margarito's wraps.they both had bad intentions.thats the point.
                    by the way ,i have never seen a guy so full of **** like teddy atlas in my life.watch and see what will happend to povetkin if atlas trains him for the klitshcko fight.

                      Never really liked Tito all that much... In my opinion, he was very overrated, but regardless, I hate to see anybody step into that ring and leave on a streatcher... Just call it quits Tito, you had a great career, don't taint it anymore with yet another sub-par performance
