    Ok CJ. I'm not sure if you are referring to me. I'm certainly not a Canelo worshipper.

    But I guarantee you that are a bunch of 40-year old Latina women in San Antonio that are.

    Boxing has been corrupt for a long time. As long as I can remember and before that. I still like the game though and once in a while boxing rises above that.

    Grow up. Boxing is never going live up to your expectations.

    Canelo is someone who doesn't box solely for the money but mainly for legacy and because he loves to box and to be in the spotlight. If he cared about money, he would have retired a long time ago. He has probably financial advisors, people who invest for him, property, gold, crypto etc. He's probably already a billionaire.

    How can he be fighting for legacy when he refuses to fight his mandatory challengers & cherry picks easy opponents. That's not what a FIGHTER!! does he wants to fight the best
    but Canelo is nothing more than a diva

    Whom has he ducked? He's pro for almost 20 years now. One of the best resumes, fought from 154 to 175.

    Too many weight classes. Too many sanctioning bodies. Too much big money at stake. Too many exceptions made for fighters with money behind them.

    It IS ridiculous I agree.

    I don't know how it's going to get better soon.

    I understand your frustration.

    I still watch because sometimes great fights still happen.

    I guess I'm in the acceptance stage because I can't change it.

    It's difficult to respect a post like this when you endlessly throw yourself in front of trains defending Margarito, a guy who has never to this day been vindicated or proven innocent in any form. If you feel the way you post you couldn't defend a guy like that....

    For our information I have known Antonio Margarito since 1999 when he fought in Ft Worth Texas. I have been ringside at the majority of his fights since then. I defend Antonio's innocence 100% because I have found no one who could prove he had ever done anything illegal, including the late Naz Richardson, who's lie about seeing plaster blocks started the whole ludicrous affair. The CSAC who just blatantly ignored my requests including the CSAC Insp who watched the hand taping & passed & signed off on the wraps previous to Naz's claim who later claimed he saw"a white substance" smeared on the pad
    No one else saw either The independent lab that tested the so called loaded pads, which included microscopic analysis, deemed them HARMLESS !!! The CSAC then decided to withdraw Antonio's licence to box in CA because they still SUSPECTED he MAY have TRIED to cheat. Doesn't the law in the good old USA state " Any suspect must be deemed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law" Antonio only had a kangaroo court where the CSAC were prosecution & jury. The independent lab was the only one that told the truth. Antonio was NEVER proven to have tried to load his gloves EVER!!
    Ive said all along if I could find anyone who could prove he'd done anything wrong I'd be on him like you people are But no one ever could Can you prove he did anything wrong??? NO!!!!!!!!! but your big mouth seem to claim he did. It was Bull Feces from the start

    He's your friend? That's the problem here then. Where is the vindication you claim here? It's never been reported and the actual docket from the hearings is public data freely available online right now. Some guys names have been cleared in a far more decisive way and you're slandering them. Show me vindication for Margarito and then I can respect it. The historical record is he cheated, you say the opposite is true. So prove it. Make a thread clear your friends name.

    Its impossible to prove a man is innocent BUT its easier to prove a man guilty which is what the US law demands. That's how the crooked CSAC got around this injustice.
    They used their power being the State Commission that oversee boxing in Ca to seize Antonio's boxing licence take away his livelihood & tarnish his good name with the excuse that they SUSPECT he tried to cheat. I m sure I know why it was done. The only thing Antonio did wrong was legitimately destroy Miguel Cotto when Cotto was supposed to win & spoiled Floyd & Oscars plans because both said they wanted the winner thinking it would be Cotto. The CSAC spread rumours they thought Antonio gloves were loaded in that fight.. I was sat 10 ft away & watched his hands taped nothing was claimed to be amiss then . Its up to YOU to prove Antonio cheated but you cannot so quit belly aching
    The opposite was achieved by the NSAC over Floyd & IV gate where he was caught red handed cheating with illegal saline drip in his own home The NSAC said "Mr mayweather did nothing wrong " then issued him a retroactive. TUE for the saline 21 days later in a failed attempt to get him off the hook. People say boxing isn't corrupt ROFL

    It's not up to me to prove a thing. Judgment was already rendered along with a suspension. To overturn any judgment requires evidence. You've provided none. I'm asking you to make a thread about it because apparently you feel you have inside info, let's see it.

    How was judgement legally rendered ?? It wasn't no trial was held. They failed to find any evidence of wrong doings. Just lots of lies & suspicions but no proof. The prosecution basically said " We think he MAY have TRIED to Cheat but we have no proof so we will class him as guilty" How the hell is that justice??? Read the official report not the edited CSAC version. The independant lab report found those pads wre HARMLESS
    You forget YOU are accusing Antonio of a crime, just like the CSAC you have absolutely no proof a crime has actually been committed. Either provide proof or MAN up & admit you have none & apologize. The CSAC were not man enough to back up their accusations & indict Antonio they knew if they had he would be a very rich man today. That's why they have lawyers. Now just go find something else to do youre just a pathetic PITA

    Whats crazy is despite these huge walls of text you haven't provided a single shred of evidence yet. Make a thread.

    The law doesn't require me to make a thread to prove Antonio innocent. The law require YOU the accuser to provide proof of any offences. Like theCSAC You cannot there never were any offences . It shows how corrupt the commissions seem to be.
    Now you either provide proof Antonio ever did anything wrong or STFU !!! Oh & while you're at it explain how the NSAC could offer this statement after Floyd had been caught red handed in his own home receiving an illegal excessive Saline drip 24 hours before fighting Manny Pacquaio ??? In doing so he broke FOUR of the NSAC's own rules on the use of Saline for supposed dehydration??????????? Their response was " Mr Mayweather did nothing wrong so we will not be investigating this matter" ROFL Yeah right !!!!! Over to you Mickey Mouth

    :lol: Calm down there.

    But yea, he has quite a few business ventures; several gas stations and over a dozen convenience stores. Didn“t he also launch some tequila cocktail in a can?
