    Sure, it possible, but from everything I've heard/read, very unlikely.

    For a minute I was having Maury flashbacks.

    So is Margo the daddy or not?

    What have you heard/read, in a phrase or two? :think (How does that suggest Margo knew exactly what was going on?):good

    If you're big on "expert opinion" Dec, both Lennox Lewis and Teddy Atlas have said it's impossible for a fighter to not know what's going on with their wraps.

    Sure...I mean, I've never had my hands wrapped, but I've seen fighters having their hands wrapped and I just cannot see myself how they could not realise that instead of carrying on with the same roll, they add a bit of gauze from another roll, and start wrapping over it with...

    ...so, yeah, I'm prepared to believe it is very unlikely Margo didn't know what was happening, but...is it 100% certain that he HAD to have known, whilst still being reasonable here?:think

    Essentially, that there is no way a veteran fighter would not feel (let alone see) the substance in his wraps. Beyond that, it seems pretty unlikely that a trainer would do something like this without his fighter's consent.

    100% certain is just about an impossibility though.

    I was one of the people defending Margarito, but if what I hear is true, and assuming he knew what was going on, then he is a cheat. I was defending him hard because many were assigning blame way before anything was known. It was so much unwarranted attack on Tony, but if its true that they found said substance, then there is nothing I can say in his defense

    Yeah...this is the really worrying thing for me...and this makes me wonder whether they've done it before in the past...if they were prepared to do it this time, why not in the past?:think

    I wasn't arguing epistemology here...(just mainly asking about the wrapping process in this case, and whether and whether it could have fooled Margo...)

    Yeah, and some writers have pointed out, if you're willing to do against SSM, why not against Cotto, which was by far the biggest fight of your career. Now, I'm not prepared to say he has done it other fights, but it casts doubt on his recent accomplishments.
