Mosley probably ended Margarito's career. He beat the **** outta him! I'm a big Mosley fan but have to admit he cheated too so by your logic do you think Shane deserved a second chance?
You haven't displayed any facts to back your theory. Your argument is that "any boxing fan knows that Dempsey was a cheater". I am a long time fan of the sweet science. I don't know that Demsey was a cheater. Did you ever see him fight? I know I didn't. Monte D. Cox himself only wrote the article, but he gives statements from one of Dempsey's seconds and many other sources. Also, experiments were also done to test the theories. But it's obvious to me that you haven't even read the article.
Shane pretty much lost that fight in my eyes. EPO is not on par with loaded gloves. It's like saying since Henry Armstrong had an enlarged heart he was a murderer. It's an advantage, but not a deadly one.
Mosley's camp tried to improve his fitness regime through drugs. Margarito tried to put a gauze into a glove that could wreck a man's life. One deserves a ban, the other deserves prison.
If you've loaded the gloves I'll put on mi black cap. I just think boxing is pretty poor on drugs issues (no, I'm not getting into the farcical Pac/PBF bollox here), but not being so stringent on something like this is lunacy. This is a very dangerous - and obviously very dangerous - sport. In many ways it should be banned. Let's not have some complete w*nker push it closer to that. Margarito: sh*t boxer, sh*t cheater, sh*t man. Now f*ck off out of our sport.
:happy I think there should be more strict testing anyways. Hate a boxer or not he has the right to know for sure his opponent is clean and if they refuse they look guilty(deja-vu?).
PBF would have been right if he said that the sport's drugs testing and punishment rules were antiquated, but he was wrong to use these points against an opponent. I don't think for one second that he is a a warrior for good, but maybe his disgraceful actions will lead to some good. If Margarito had been banned, that would have led to some good as well. Glenn Catley's defeat, anyone?
