      All that is true but I'm talking just about the power of Tito's punches

        It's like Tyson said. Everyone has a plan until they get hit

          Wov if you hate a fighter you will make up any reason to discredit him. I guess next will be: " why Tito hits so hard with such a slim build"
          But back to the subject. Technically you can wrap your hands in some way that will make them very hard. I recall they used to put them in a cold water for some time so they will literally freeze. But dont you ever think that referies and comission also know all the dirty tricks that fighter can use and check for it. And in my opinion Tito was just lain scared of Hopkins when he fought him

            What are you talking about me hateing Tito? Tito is one of my favorite fighters. I dont think he's cheating but I also an not 100% sure either.

              Ok my fault than. It just sounded so much like a start of a new hate thread that will go on for long.

                Trinidad scared? That is definitely not the reason. Hopkins was very versatile that night and made adjustments to control the fight. Trinidad was not the same that night anyway. Hopkins was the better man, plain and simple. Don't say that Trinidad was scared because he never ducked anyone and you should also check the fight and tell me who was the one moving from the ropes as soon as his back touched them because he knew it was the danger zone.

                  That's my point. Just like you said Tito wasnt the same. I dont think he wouldve won anyway because I just dont think he's better then X but there was something different about Tito. Dude had no confidence. It was like the first time he hit X he knew he didnt have it and it just makes me wonder

                    "If Tito and his father were trying to cheat
                    don't you think he'd cut the tape and everything off?"

                      correct, just as a new study found out that hitting with boxing gloves has a greater chance to casue brain damage than without gloves
