  • Roach said Joe Chavez does something special when he wraps a fighter’s hands, and the two-time Trainer of the Year will make sure it is not used against Pacquiao, the underdog against Dela Hoya.

    “He uses the strapping tape which is not supposed to be used but porous tape only. Between the knuckles they use what Joe calls the fake ligaments and they make it like rope,” he explained.

      I also found it funny that Camp pacquaio started their hand wraps before garcia can look at it for the margarito fight. Garcia was in rios corner and asked them to wait they said yes and when he finally gets their manny had his left hand allready wrapped and they refused to re wrap it.
      I also thought that was messed up

          Now if you were to watch Margarito wrap his hands that night he uses the porous tape its nearly skin color, Manny is using the strapping tape clearly visible by the black logos on the tape....

          • Strapping tape, porous tape, twisted or not, all this **** needs to be better regulated.

              What is so messed up with that? Rios was the fight before the main event, don't forget the fighters have to get their wraps and gloves on before the main event. It does take a long time to wrap hands. Garcia had someone there to watch the wrapping, any concerns would have been raised while wrapping and they fix or not fix according to the commissioner based on if it's legal or not. Once the wrapping and signature is signed it's done. You can't change things once they've put that signature on.
