    Wow.

    Freddie is telling two story's here.

    First he say's he thinks Margarito is a stand up guy and he believes his story and he then goes on to say he doesn't trust anybody in boxing.

    Confusing interview from Roach.

    I think Roach is keeping his options open for another cash cow after Pacman....however, Margie's future in boxing is over....over!!!!

    Bottomline is, Maragrito knew of his hands....IMO (How could he not)
    Roach prob belives Tony has the style & attituide that never needed that bull**** in the first place & is willing to give Maragrito the chance to prove it. (Just to entertain the matter)

    thats cause life is grey and never black or white.

    Roach says he wants to believe him, then says he believes him, he's obviously not too sure. Its easy to sit behind a keyboard and scream for someone's death bt I think when that man comes up to you face to face and reaches out for a helping hand, its not so easy for a man to turn his back on that. I understand Roach. He wants to believe him but its a tough decision cause if its a lie, then Roach believes Margo should be banned for life.

    Sometimes not so easy to make a decision. You can only base your judgement on what you see.

    At some point Roach says something like "I know if i was a fighter i would know whats in my wraps but maybe its different for each fighter"

    Freddie Roach is passionate about the sport of Boxing, if he didn't truly believe Margarito was telling the truth, I don't feel he would have embraced him. There is perhaps a possibility that money talks, but how much more money does a trainer of Freddie's quality really need? He's on the pay roll of the most successful Boxer currently active. If he didn't want to train Margarito, he woudn't have.

    You're a good poster, you're just wrong sometimes. I'm here to keep you in check, no worries.

    How could Margarito not know, Roach is being naive if you ask me.

    Intresting, even if Marg comes back there would be no point, the only people in the sport that support him are people from Tijuinia. I think if he was to fight Cotto again and win however that would win him many fans over.

    Roach was a fighter...he knows every fighter is cognizant of what is on their hands....Margie approached him with a sob story and appealed to
    Roach's sentiments....thats why Roach is torn with judgement.

    Margie's career is over.....he damaged himself.....if he didn't know....I'm
    curious if he confronted Capetillo in a serious way....not like Little Red Riding Hood.

    Grandma, your teeth are so long....." better to chew the food you just brought me" OK.
    Grandma your claws are so sharp...." better to tickle you with " OK.

    Capetillo my wraps feel like brass knuckles....." oh thats to protect your knuckles my son " OK.

    I think we get the picture!!!!!

    yea bro i know Roach was a fighter :lol: don't get caught over semantics

    what Roach said was that he knows when he was fighter he knew what was going into his wraps but that doesn't necessarily mean every fighter is the same.
