lol, I have absolutely 0 reason to hate on Tito, he has an exciting style and a likeable personality, but he was caught cheating, end of. Also do you have any proof it was illegal in 1 state only? As far as Im aware, its illegal to wrap your hands like that, so are you saying he wrapped it old way against Mayorga, Wright & RJJ? Here is a quote from Trinidad: Second, he admits that not being able to use the layers and to put the tape on the skin and over the knuckles, "TENDS TO TAKE AWAY SOME OF THE POWER IN THE PUNCH."
Tito by KO within 5. Just like some other people already said. Pac is a better fighter but not a better WW.
he didn't pull a margareeto....but he was caught stacking... guaze tape guaze tape to make almost a solid cast. kessler got caught too before he fought ward...and they did not make huge waves over it.. it just seems that when these guys get caught...they still are allowed to fight...but lose pretty badly
Trinidad displayed skill regardless.. but when that kind of thing happens ...it makes me think of thier past fights and if they had done that previously before being discovered by chance. boxing has it's own watchdogs...but they seem to fail unless you do it yourself.
i bacame a reluctant fan of tito when i bet on oba carr to beat him. tito is too powerful and too long for pac. biggest thing in pacs favor is that tito was kind of predictable in his movements and pacs speed might keep him where he needs to be to avoid titos power. manny likes to trade too much and this is the wrong guy to hook with. tito by tko after 1 or 2 knock downs.
So Tito knocking out his next two opponents after being caught "cheating" doesn't mean anything to you? Especially knocking out the never before knocked out Mayorga...:tired
mayorga with his chin out...like hit me...hit me...hit me... mayorga was a tough dude...but nothing a good boxer can't handle
tito was more flatfooted than cotto. tito would be carved up like he was by jones and hopkins.... speed...tito no likey
forrest was more than just a 'good boxer' but he couldn't handle mayorga. mayorga has (had) one of the best chins of all time.
