**FYI: ...Boxing- Hand wrapping 101: proper technique for hand wraps**

There are plenty of good trainers that just stand there and watch every step that you mentioned due to cheats. like Roach and Steward. As someone else mention before, you can't blame Cotto's team for not deligently staring down the handwrap session when you have a commissioin who is suppose to monitor this. It really makes you think a half dozen times if the gloves were loaded for the Cotto fight. I don't think there will be a rematch due to possibly Margarito getting punished.

 

but Orish they fought plaster in the wraps no?

 

Too many stories now.

Old Gauze, Pre Treated Gauze, Used Gauze.

They did say it fell out of BOTH wraps though.

I think something was up and Margo and team are going to be fined.

 

I'll do you one better :good

Excuse me if I'm off the mark here, but what does this have to do with the current controversy surrounding Margarito's so called illegal substance being found in his wraps? I can understand the relevance with the Trinidad controversy because that was concerned with the style in which his hands were wrapped. But the Margarito situation is about a possible hardend foreign substance being found wrapped into his gauze. And I don't think any ESB poster would be unaware that the rules stipulate that you can't wrap hardend foreign objects onto your hands.

 

thanks for the info and good post but DQ for his recent fights isn't going to happen. There's no proof he used it in previous fights. Cotto keeps his L.

 

NO :nono

Already your downplaying the incident to suit Margarito's defense.

They found BLOCKS of gauze underneath his wraps that allegedly had a foreign like substance.

That in and of itself is a rule violation of handwrapping. The question now is: was it plaster of paris or any sort of plaster-like substance?

But his defensive coucil and so called "neutral" boxing fans are unaware that he already broke the wrapping rule and most likely have committed this act more than once...seeing as how everyone from the Margarito camp has stated that "additional gauze" was found and nothing else. Well the dispute now is whether they're lying about it being gauze and not plaster...not if he cheated...

HE BROKE THE RULES AND CHEATED BY ADDING THE **** UNDERNEATH WHICH IS OUT OF THE ORDINARY...to stray from the normal rules would need approval by the commission ahead of time.

 

Huh? So you explained the rules for wrapping hands to show that Tito didn't contravene the rules but Margo did (if it turns out to be true). Um, I think its pretty ****ing obvious that if you add a hard or hardening substance to your wraps you're cheating. As for the Tito wraps, if you wrap your hands in a manner that is outside the stipulated rules then you're getting an unfair advatage, that's why it is illegal. Whether Tito did or didn't is based on hearsay so I would give him the benefit of the doubt.
