For those who know about wrapping hands and stuff! Its a Margarito Question...

I've seen people get their hands wrapped before and I never heard of anything like that, That's some weird ****, Why would somebody even do that??? I think they cheated.

 

i dont believe its normal to prepare guazes weeks prior.

 

even if they prepare it 1 year in advance it would harden and fall apart like plaster.

 

i always though that hand wraps and everything that they put on the boxers fits are brand new,,not something to prepared and stored or even to sumerged into some liquid.

 

thank god they he got what he deserve.

 

Back when I used to box, my trainer used to just buy them the day before or sometimes even hours before my fights and they were fresh from the package...I've never in my life heard about "preparing" wraps before...that's very odd...but I'm a bit skeptical about this...only because I don't know how many times I've ****in' seen mistranslations from spanish to english that ruins the context of the orginal message.

 

They usually are...at least to my knowledge

 

No its not normal to prepare for weeks in advance.....what went into their preparation?

You don't want to use used ones especailly for a title fight of this mangitude. Because the dried sweat could cause irritation and you
want to minimize all distractions as much as possible.

 

if it was humid, why would it harden? sounds like the opposite would happen. dunno, not a science major

 

They are prepared weeks in advance when you are using illegal substances lol

 

The only reason they would harden humidity is if they were treated with something like the aformentioned Plaster of Paris. Even if the wraps were dusted with corn starch they would harden with a bit of moisture, be it humidity or sweat, or whatever. I have never heard of using anything but brand new wraps before a fight. The fix was in. No trainer, profesional or othewise (other than Panama Lewis) would put crusty wraps on there fighter. Another black eye that the sport doesn't need. Shameful.

the guy cheated...there is no excuse...U use brand new wraps when u are on a world championsip level...hell u use brand new wraps when u have ur first fight if ur trainer has any clue...U can't afford to be irritated...there is no excuse and the saddest part is COTTO and Cintron may have paid the ultimate price for this...and they may not have ...but to have this haoppen is enough to wonder if cotto got beaten to a bloody pulp by rock solid hands???? what the **** is this ****....it has nothing to do with spanish to english...it has to do with plaster found on the wraps....unreal...nice work margo,,,,to think people call PBF a coward for not fighting him and cotto a quitter for stopping is just disgusting

 

Mosley is not a saint either. I think if it's true, it's nasty, if he did use some sort of plaster. But mosley is a roider, another cheater. All trying to cheat to win. Lame as hell.
