    Of course. Because Margarito IS a cheater.

    He committed probably the most disgraceful act in boxing since Luis Resto.

    Yeah, Margarito was innocent.

    :lol:

    His trainer "accidentally" inserted illegal wraps.

    He didn't know what was in his gloves after being a pro for like 15 years. It just happened that the elements of plaster showed up in his gloves.

    People are so in denial about a fighter being a cheat (being a bigger fan of a FIGHTER than the sport itself, how juvenile, grown men needing a hero) that they look for any reason to make him look innocent.

    All you have to do is look at common sense to see that he's a disgraceful cheater.

    People are too blinded by their grown man hero-worship to look at things logically.

    I can understand forgiving "a little".

    Having the elements of plaster in your wraps is much, much, much more than "a little".

    That's an unforgivable act as far as boxing is concerned.

    Your thread title reads, "Why does Antonio Margarito Still Have Fans?"

    This answered your question in the simplest manner possible, "For the same reasons other "alleged cheaters" (ie. Mosley, Trinidad, Jones jr., Toney, etc) still have fans." We weren't arguing the fact if he was a cheater or not, which is why I stated that some dumbasses wouldn't or couldn't comprehend the aforementioned fact. You proved my point by arguing something other than the subject of your thread. :yep

    Well, they should turn on Margarito as fans, despite him being exciting. I stopped rooting for Toney after the steroids, but that wasn't near the shift in opinion I had on Margarito. I used to like him. Now I dislike him more than any active fighter.

    That's an unforgivable sin against the SPORT, which I'm a "die-hard fan" of.

    His English is limited too.

    Well now that is a different story. I too was a Margarito fan, but stopped supporting him due to the allegations that arose even though we didn't the full details of the investigation. Too many discrepancies by the CSAC in the way they handled this mess. In my opinion, they are the most to blame for all of this since they SIGNED off on the gloves. Seems a lot of people are overlooking this.

    Anyhow, I stopped supporting Margarito for not only bring shame to the sport and putting other peoples lives in danger, but also because he dishonored the proud warrior tradition of Mexican boxers who fought before him. Whether he knew or not is something we will never know, but I blame him for even letting Capetillo remain in his corner during the Mosley fight. He should have fired him right then and there.

    To be honest, my theory is that Margarito was weight-drained and wasn't ready for this fight, physically or mentally so they decided to "cheat." That's their fault and they have no one else to blame but themselves.

    I also have a little more faith in the Nevada State Athletic Commission and Cotto's uncle who all cleared Margarito of any wrongdoing, thus putting the claim that he had previously cheated in other fights where it belongs, which is the garbage can.

    Last of all, at least take into account that he got suspended and got his ass handed to him by another cheat in Shane "HGH" Mosley, who surely was on something during that fight. Remember, once a cheat, always a cheat or so say the Margarito bashers.

    My only beef is with all those hyprocrites who are quick to jump on Margarito while at the same time defending other fighters who's actions are just as questionable.
    An example of this hypocrisy is all those PBF fans who are crucifying Margarito for what the commision said he did but have no problems with Floyd's constant use of his forearm/elbows, which in my opinion is straight out cheating. or Mosley fans who have a huge beef with Margarito for "cheating" but turn a blind eye to the steroids.

    The more these jackasses post their feigned indignation the more I cheer for Margarito.

    And forgive me for not taking the word of such an inept organization who after a thirty day investigation could only find " traces of plaster of paris"....................Please:patsch

    I know you graduated from the Burger King Academy, thus the reason you can't read nor comprehend simple English. You **** off first, and I'll follow suit. The scumbag in my avatar not only knocked out the uncle of that *** in your avatar, but he made him quit. So you can go jump off the nearest bridge, and I'm sure that *** in your avatar will be right behind you since you super glued your mouth to his mangina.

    The fraud in your avatar made a career fighting nurses from Tijuana and getting controversial Don King victories. The fraud in your avatar also QUIT after a headbutt from a guy who was beating his ass once AGAIN in Randall even though he was the one who threw the headbutt out of desperation to get a controversial quick gift decision as he knew he was heading to another ass whopping.
