Interesting LA Times article re margarito's wraps in the Cotto fight

Not gonna lie...that photo seems a bit incriminating.

 

Looks photoshopped to me first off that finger looks slight different in color compared to the other fingers and what is supposed be a substance just looks like his knuckle.

 

Margarito is a known cheater. He should be serving a lifetime ban from boxing rings the world over.

 

Let's talk about Tito's wraps.

What about Roid Mosely's roids?

 

Those are seperate issues. Both men should have been suspended for life. The photo in LA times is not doctored in any way. It is the original photo that all reputable sources are showing right now. Margarito is a proven cheater and his or his trainer's words about the Cotto fight should not even be listened to. All signs point to Marg loading his gloves in that fight. Why people choose to give Marg the benefit of doubt and believe his fairytales about plaster accidentaly slipping into his gloves, is beyond me. Boxing will not be taken seriously until it shows cheaters like Margarito the exit door. Why can't they be as rigourous as the IOC - one blatant cheating and you're out for life, with all your records expunged. Until then, people like Marg will continue to find ways to cheat because it is extrememly profitable and the penalty is a slap on the wrist.

 

Clearly photo-shopped I think. I thought this pic was old?

 

What about Tito's wrap??? Why dont you try to keep yourself informed??? They didn't find anything ilegal in Tito's wraps. They found a technique that the only place where is not allowed is New york. Totally legal in Las Vegas. It was matter of technique and amount of tape. Very differrent to havin PLASTER.

 

very true...these idiots need to get better informed before talking **** they know nothing about.

 

Had to be wrapped again though. Hopkins took it very seriously.

So, roids are fine then?

 

That pic cant b photoshoped its the exact same on HBO's website...

 

Who said roids were fine? A lot of us think plaster is a hell of a lot worse. So Shane took EPO for the 2nd Oscar fight. Okay, that enhances stamina, but he's always been built like a beast for his size. IMO but a major difference than using plaster.

 

I heard Nazim Richardson said that himself. If he said it, it's good by me.

Said something like "Trinidad's wraps were legal, just not in NY. Margarito had weapons." Something like that I think.

Massive difference.

I'm tired of Margo-Cheato supporters trying to justify damned plaster substances by saying but this or that guy did this...

It's ridiculous!

 

I simply do not like the double standard, too many are beating a dead horse.
