They should impose heavier penalties for cement-fists like Marg and Tito

[lance_uppercut]

If theres is something that doesnt comply, its something wrong. And 99% of it is done w/ the intent of gaining unfair advantages.

Very true. Why else would someone do something like that? The only other explanation would be ignorance...and given how many fights Tito has had before that ignorance doesn't seem likely. All I'm saying is Resto got popped for what he did...so did Margarito...meanwhile Tito gets caught red handed yet I don't remember anything about an investigation or a suspension. That's not saying he didn't do anything wrong...but it may not have been something on the level of what Margarito did.

tito did have illegal wraps having extra guaze and tape makes a huge diffrence and the ones who say it doest make a difference have never boxed or trained. when iam training i put extra gauze and tape it gives you that extra pop and protect your hands so you can through harder without worry about hurting your hand. just ask jumma how they made him re wrap his hands against magtwa notice how his pop in his punches went away. they wrap jumma hands the same way they did tito and jumma was made to rewrap his hands. cheating is cheating and tito tryed to cheat and has been wraping his hand illegaly in all his fights. the difference is tito wrap look normal which is why he got away with it aslong as he did.

I can't believe people think Tito is innocent. Boxing fans need to get into the gyms and see the difference in handwraps for themselves instead of talking out of their ass.

Everyone's seen a roll of tape before right? Feel how heavy and solid that is? Imagine that thing around someones fist, stretching the inside of the boxing glove, and thinning it out. Better yet, imagine if someone tossed a roll a tape at your head full speed. People probably didn't even know there were rumors about Tito's wraps years before the Hopkins fight even took place. I remember reading they would get the cotton wet first, which would allow them to apply even more tape since the wet cotton would practically smash down to nothing with enough tape wrapped around it.

There's nothing safe, legal, or fair about that bull****.

And if it's not really a factor, why do fighters like Juanma Lopez and Trinidad magically lose their punching power when they don't get to use their special hand wraps? Lopez complained in spanish that in his last two fights (after the Matagwa fight) he didn't get to use the same wraps that Tito got to use throughout his career

It's ****ing Pathetic.

Who says Tito's innocent? The question I have is why wasn't there any investigation into the matter if he was essentially caught with illegal wraps which made his punches harder?

This is really sad. Joppy couldve accomplished much much more

thats really has been my question too.

I suspect that whats on the background is thatthey fear that if there will be an investigation, then this will really be a big big blow to boxing. Tito was being considered as being too good for anyone in his weight class at that time.

that u say so show how little u know about Cheato nuthuggers

nuthuggers are not real fans, what they say or think is irrelevant. they dont know **** about boxing so anybody who does know a bit of boxing ignore them. just like ppl who say floyd or pac is the best ever, nobody takes that **** seriously other than opther ******s.


and i was already aware of what joppy said concerning titos handwraps, but hes wrong. tito didnt have anything that would make his punches harder in the handwraps. margarito had plaster, it makes his punches more dangerous hense is very serious and he should be permanently banned from boxing for pulling a stunt like that.

tito had his hands wrapped with extra gauze, all pros use gauze when they wrap their hands as protection, however there is a certain amount your entitled to use, tito used too much. it gave him extra protection for his hands, but didnt add any power to his punches.

its very diffrent from what margarito did, and it happens. like is said already kessler did the same thing for his fight with ward, tried to use gauze (which is legal) in a illegal way, that would help protect his hands better, wouldnt damage his oponent though. they made him do it right and then had the fight, no big deal.

tito was the same thing, naseem told them to do it right, they did, so the fight was on. naseem commented on the margarito fight that he thought he wrecked the fight cuz they were gon take tony to jail, tito was just a matter of get it right and get the fight started.

There you go, there was a usage of something which is in Excess of what's allowed. Extra protection, extra hardness.

Poor Joppy...
