How to prevent and stop all the b.s with accusasations of illegal wraps

[NYU Alum.]

I think I have a good idea. What if each State commissions themselves appoint someone to wrap the fighters hands instead of their trainers. Therefore, each camp can't complain how the other camp is wrapping their hands.

I mean, wrapping hands isn't exactly rocket-science. They can basically create a new position and train 'em how to wrap hands according to the rules. It's kind of like what we see in MMA, right before each fighter steps into the cage, they have a person who is neutral to both parties that puts the vaseline on the fighters face.

I mean, the trainers from the opposing camp can still check the opposition's hands during the hand wrapping, but atleast they don't have to worry about the other camp doing something dirty to get the upperhand. I mean, a commission appointed hand-wrap expert has nothing to gain if fighter A or B wins.

How bout no.

How bout you let the trainer (the professional) do his job.

Everyody should have their hands wrapped the same way.

To me the best way. Is for the commission to take classes on what is and what is not allowed. And, what is legal and illegal. So they could have enough damn knowledge and sign off on **** that should be not be signed of on. Is no way Richardson should be the one pointing this out to them. Is no way for Roach to be the one pointing this out to them. They should already know what is right and what is not. They should take classes and get training to better at there job.

Everybody wraps a bit differently. Doesn't mean its illegal. As long as the wraps are done right and there's nothing "extra" in them, then it should be fine.

Wrapping hands ain't rocket science. Its actually super ****ing easy.

We don't need more bureauc**** for this ****.

Umm, this is getting a bit redundant, but, it doesn't take a boxing trainer to be an expert at wrapping hands.

Exactly, but to take a step further, have a neutral party wrap the hands of both fighters.

They already do that, but I don't know if all state commissions do, I know for a fact, Cali and LV have been doin it. The commissions actually select a pro trainer to hold seminars for the folks who check the handwraps for each fight.

Not so different, the commissions actually have a set guideline on what's proper and what's not. But, there still alot politics and mind games that each camp plays regarding how each of 'em wrap their hands.

Well, with a state appointed "hand wrap expert", the coaches don't have to worry about how each camp wraps their hands !!

UFC has 1 person (or team) checking and wrapping hands for BOTH fighters

I say check the tools being used to wrap..check the wrap..video tape it.

I don't believe it will help either fighter at all. I'd stick to close supervision.
Hand wrapping is not just wrap and go as it requires a lot of patience and skill. Vaseline is much easier to apply.
