Comments Thread For: Sanchez: Canelo's Hand Wraps for Golovkin Fight Were Illegal

[livershot73]

I don't see anything illegal with the wrap because GGG can also do it once the commission have come clear on that issue.

Abel is trying to psyche people's mind for a defeat of GGG with an excuse.

Exactly, have Abel wrap GGG “plaster style”...but first, go spend a week training in Mexico and have some Tijuana Tainted Tacos, that way GGG can be roided up with some TTT and EVEN the playing field with Clenelo!

They need a brotha in the locker room that will actually raise hell.

Mexicans are soft man.

Robert Garcia did the same with Maidana. He actually conceded with changing Maidana's gloves when the commission said they were completely legal.

Abel Sanchez lets GGG fight a dude with brick in his hand. SMDH

I think you might have a point not about Mexicans being soft about the commission favouring the money fighter.. Its obvious that they are biased for the money fighter. Now you know why Floyd never wanted to fight out side of Vegas once he started having serious hand problems and needed injections in his hands. Nevada commission needs to be investigated for corruption just like College mens basketball. Too much money involved leads to corruption especially if they let this fight proceed with out any delays or suspensions for the rematch.

It's beyond a joke how much canelo Is allowed to get away with

Abel should really read the rules before a fight or making comments about what's illegal.

NAC 467.432 Bandages for hands of unarmed combatant. (NRS 467.030)

1. Bandages on the hand of an unarmed combatant may not exceed one winding of surgeon's adhesive tape, not over 1 1/2 inches wide, placed directly on the hand to protect the part of the hand near the wrist. The tape may cross the back of the hand twice, but may not extend within three-fourths of an inch of the knuckles when the hand is clenched to make a fist.

2. Each unarmed combatant shall use soft surgical bandage not over 2 inches wide, held in place by not more than 6 feet of surgeon's adhesive tape for each hand. Up to one 15-yard roll of bandage may be used to complete the wrappings for each hand. Strips of tape may be used between the fingers to hold down the bandages.

3. Bandages must be adjusted in the dressing room in the presence of a representative of the Commission and both unarmed combatants. Either unarmed combatant may waive his privilege of witnessing the bandaging of his opponents hands

Abel been reading Bernard's book 'how to troll the other guy before a fight'. Not saying he's as good at it as Bernard was, but he's trying his best.

So what abel is saying is that lil g was hesitant cuz of Nelo's punches? Interesting....

[Metho_4u]

Abel Sanchez is now creating more drama to get people to go against Canelo.
Why didn't he mention the wraps before??
And if the Nevada commission said its legal then why is he bringing it up and making an issue out of it??
Fucc Abel that old punk motherfuccer!

This, the only thing he's Abel to do is whine.

bradley accused pacquiao of double stacking. (2012)


(go to 1:50 mark)

gotta listen close. hes talking to random members of the press about what gloves he and manny might wear on fight night.

"he probably gonna be wearing reds, eights (8 oz), double stacked gloves--hands, hand wraps."

the double stack gives off more sting & pop in your punches because the wrap becomes very tight. this is what tito was caught doing vs hopkins. titos dad said he has always done it that way which is why titos handwraps have been under scrutiny. double stacking is kinda like loaded gloves. pacquiao did it vs margs and thats why he rearranged his face.

All about money. Cash cows can do as they please as long as the powers that be get flush with cash. Unfortunately thats how buisness works.
