Look it up if you wish. I just read that Nazeem Richardson, commenting about the New York fight and the hand-wrap controversy, said that there was nothing wrong, it was just that Trinidad's wrap was not legal in New York although legal in many other states. In another comment he said that it was just in New York they were not legal, that Trinidad was not trying to take an advantage.
And this same conclusion was come to by the New York Boxing Commission who had a meeting about it after, that Trinidad was NOT trying to take an unfair advantage with the hand wraps.
But you know, on BoxingScene there are many very ignorant posters who really know nothing about anything except what their minds are happy with.Comment

It didn't disappear, except for Mayorga and Cherifi, the guys he later fought after a series of retirements, were,as well as having excellent chins, like Hopkins and Wright, seasoned champions, he was lucky with Joppy because Joppy was too aggressive and left himself wide open. and once he went down, never recovered. He was not a top champ average good but not a great fighter like Trinidad.
Look who he lost to, Hopkins, the champion foul master, who was a light heavy masquerading as a middleweight, and with a glove on his head, Winky Wright, who had the most impenetrable defence, and Roy Jones, for goodness sake, at 170 lbs.
He actually retired after the Hopkins fight, and returned to KO Cherifi who was a 3 time WBC and WBA champ, then retired again. Then unretired for Wright and retired again, and a few years later came the Jones fight.
So he really had a great career.Comment

He didnt even come close to hurting Winky and Winkys chin is good but not great.It didn't disappear, except for Mayorga and Cherifi, the guys he later fought after a series of retirements, were,as well as having excellent chins, like Hopkins and Wright, seasoned champions, he was lucky with Joppy because Joppy was too aggressive and left himself wide open. and once he went down, never recovered.

Jones is made of glass.
cherifi is a bum
And mayorga moved up several weight and even let trinidad have free punches. and Trinidad still had to beat him up badly to stop him.
Once he couldn't use his brass knuckles the power disappeared.Comment
