first time I'm hearing this...interesting!!I'm glad Timmy caught that.
1. He remembers Garcia arguing about not witnessing them wrap Mannys hands & being told to walk away like he didn't have a real argument.2. He saw Freddie describing how Oscar wrapped his hands for the Floyd fight, and how he now wraps Mannys hands like that (rolled tape between the knukles).
3. He saw the TY vid "is Manny a cheat", where you SEE Manny stacking his wraps (tape, gauze & tape again. Combined with the rolled tape).
Or 3. His camp received my emails warning them about this same thing. Either way, we're about to witness the truth about Manny in this fight people.
I hope HBO airs the wrappings.Comment

yah but they did have someone in garcia's camp watching over the wrapping of pac's hands..also different states have different rules regarding how a fighter wraps their hands. so what is legal in one state may be illegal in another.
quote from an article by the ny times regarding hand wrappping...
"Fighters are notoriously finicky about the wrapping. Some refuse to let anyone other than their designated wrapper near their hands. Others, like Amir Khan, prefer a layer of tape before the first layer of gauze. Pacquiao wraps his own hands, as tightly as humanly possible, so tight he sometimes breaks the gauze.
Rules vary from state to state. In California, only gauze and surgical adhesive tape are allowed. In Nevada, trainers can apply only gauze, not tape, to skin. But some keys are universal, Roach said, like spreading the gauze evenly across the fingers, or protecting the knuckles with the right amount of padding."
