I've seen it talked about on here but honestly I don't know the details on it. All I know is he was being accused of using hand wraps against Vargas. How did the wraps benefit him when he fought? Was he using this tactic throughout his career? Did he actually get caught?

No announcement yet.
So can someone explain to me the Tito Trinidad hand wraps controversy?

I had a talk with Vargas this week when I visit his gym. That was the ice breaker convo I used. I brought up the video where he said hed have a few words with Tito if he saw him again.
I was caught up in the moment as a fan but here a few things he told me:
- His team complained because the kind of wraps he used would harden when wet - said they were told to stop complaining and were taken out of the dressing room
- Told me Tito cried after the fight and apologized as if he had done something wrong
- Said Titos punches felt like baseball bats "he yelled boom boom" loud as **** as he was explaining
- Said he only remembers fragments of the fight, thats how ****ed up he got
Thats what I can remember. Im going back to his gym next week to buy a shirt because they didnt have the shirt I wanted in stock. Ill check if I can ask hik further and hopefully record it like I did at the Mayweather Gym.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Naseem is on record saying Tito's wraps were NOT illegal.
Vargas is a documented steroids cheat. Tito is lookin for his ass...
Tito> Mexico.

If Vargas had the courage to step to Tito, Tito would put him on his ass in tend seconds again. Steroidal peasant got his shyt pushed in ten seconds into round ONE.

I cant get into the details of how one wraps a hand. not a boxer . But a wrap is a wrap. Only so many ways to wrap a hand and how much gauze one can use. My only recollection was that they were wrapped a bit to tight. Whatever. Hope other chime in.
When Nazeem himself says Tito's wraps were LEGAL, threads like this are pure comedy gold.

He basically would soak his wraps in cement before he fought particularly his left hand,and was caught prior to the Bernard fight with what could be called "cinder blocks".But since he would with King money change hands and the entire charade was quickly forgotten.....or something that.

Man, I wish you the pride to admit you are a peasant and stop claiming to be "rican..." You are not.
Your psychological profile, complete with peasant ****-rage/anger and a tendency toward morbid death-wish culture, is all I needed to know to confirm you are a bonafide peasant. And yes, life does not want you but somebody has to wash g****s. Silly shiny peasant...

Tito would basically knock wannabe come-forward/high on steroid warriors on their asses in round one. If Tito have "wraps" his KO victims would look like Margarito's... Missing half an ear like Lujan, or cut the **** up and swollen ala Cotto.
NONE of Tito's VICTIMS, looked like they got bare knuckled. In fact, Tito's pops was always more concerned with protecting Tito's hands... e.g. LESS pain for Vargas punk ass who could not even deal with ONE Tito hook seconds into round ONE.
The comedy of a steroid cheat trying to rationalize having his ass whooped by the superior Tito.
The kind of humilty/ass whoopin Tito gave Vargas NEVER goes away. That steroid needin peasant is probably at the edge of some cliff at Big Bear crying and punching his dashboard wondering why...
