Do you think Antonio Margarito loaded his gloves against Cintron?

    Anyone else notice the kind of breaking down he did against cintron like he did to Cotto?

    I remember seeing Cintron just kind of mentally quit after a while.

    I always thought back to that when I think of how he slowly broke Cotto down.

    Cintron is a big strong guy and would have been a serious threat, so its a possibility.

    He might have, who knows. His actions throw his whole career into doubt.

    Personally, I think he'd have done the same thing to Cintron wearing 16 oz. gloves loaded with feather down. Cintron doesn't have the fortitude or the style to cope with pressure when his power can't get respect. I'd put my firstborn on Angulo in a rematch where Perro doesn't look like death warmed over pre-fight, and Angulo is just a slower, squatter Margarito.

    yes!!!!!! if he loaded them against Shane which was expected to be a walk-thru fight , ofcourse he did for his biggest most challenging fights i.e. Cintron twice, and Cotto.

    Yes. It also makes sense with plaster of paris. As the rounds went on and the gloves got wet they would have gotten harder and harder until they became solid.

    Makes the most sense. You don't get to "the big dance" then try new stuff. He was comfortable cheating that is why he was laughing, joking, and feeling good before Naz came in and ruined his day.

    Is there a possibility? Hell YES.

    If he was loaded then it was Cintron's corner's fault as much as anything. Why weren't they there watching the hand get wrapped?

    Cintron has two losses both by ko to Margrito. Questions should be asked.
