    How did Mayorga take the left hooks from Trinidad?

    How did he just take those shots just like that? I mean I know they say "the punch that you don't see knocks you out," obviously he did see them but damn, Trinidad is one of those punchers that could put you to sleep with one punch, see it or not.

    Couple things.

    One... he was hyped.

    Two... he was adrenaline rushing.

    Three.... he was fully expecting it and saw it coming.

    Four.... he paid for it in the end.

      Hopkins said, "If you put on tape, then gauze, then tape, then gauze, it's like a [plaster] cast. It's like being hit with a baseball bat. I'm giving out some secrets here, but you can dip your hands in ice water and that tape will, like, marinate and become harder. But it's only cheating if you get caught. Personally, I think Vargas' and Reid's people dropped the ball. Naazim did a brilliant job in spotting what [Felix Trinidad Sr.] was doing with the wraps."

      Enough said. Good day

        You answered your own question, he saw those wraps from a mile away.

          the punishment eventually accumulated though...

          but I guess Mayorga's chin is pretty good

          he took some bombs by Trinidad, Mosley,...

            Tito is a cheater, Cotto is a better boxer and doesn't get the credit he deserves.
