Can't agree. If like Stitch says, it's not a matter of how much tape you use then why are there rules that limit the amount of tape you can use. He says he wraps his fighters hands in a similar manner. Obviously he has a bias. I really can't see him as an unbiased observer here. He's not going to say oh no that's illegal. But Stitch isn't that how you wrap hands?? Whether Canelo's hand wraps give him an advantage is up for debate but this video settles nothing. If it's not within the rules then it's not allowed. Bennett has to ask someone else if it's illegal or an advantage for a fighter. Really???Comment

Pacquiao's wraps look similar to that and if you go back to Trinidad vs Vargas fight his handwraps looks similar to that also. big on the knuckles.Comment

Why would Bennett ask Stitch if it’s illegal? He asked his opinion about “advantage” theory. The house rules in favor of protecting hands, not Abel wanting Canelo to hurt his hands because it proves Canelo would power punch more than GGG. You don’t need to worry about hurting your hands if you’re just probing jabs.Can't agree.

He asked him because obviously he didn't know the answer. My hunch is he may have been considering bringing Nevada in line with other jurisdictions.
Vegas and Canelo aren't strangers to controversy over gloves and hand wrappings.

Lara complained also about how Canelo's hands are wrapped. Canelo was ordered to rewrap his hands before getting in the ring with Fielding.
It's time Vegas puts this behind them and adopts the regulations other jurisdictions have.
What Sanchez, Lara and Fielding complained about is way the tape is used to wrap the wrist. According to Sanchez it stiffens it up and makes the wrist area a cast. If your wrist doesn't flex then more energy goes into the punch.
It's all about having an even playing field.Comment
