    Techinal you're right, my mistake...but your post is rather misleading...The old gauze was stuffed under his wraps so basically you're right but that still doesnt erase what his intent were...Basically there were some extra gauze in his wraps given that they were stuffed in his new gauze!...He should have never had them there to begin with!

    The thing is I don't blame Margo for not knowing once I read into it. I didn't at first I found it hard to believe Margo wouldn't know. But looking a little deeper into how the substance was placed, I can see how Margo could be telling the truth. I put blame on Capetillo, he is truely the guilty one, no excuse for him.

    I have no problem with Margo fighting now, but I would say that there should be now problem if officials would want to check his wrapps after his fights from now on. But he's training with Garcia at the Colonia Gym in Oxnard, and I truely doubt a top notch trainer like Garcia will ever do any **** like that.

    Fair enough! This is my personal opinion though of course...I feel that Margorito had some knowledge of what was going on...I find it hard to believe that Margorito didnt know..Reasons being is that when I have had my hands wrapped...I tend to look at what my trianer is doing...Maybe Margorito didnt know...thats the million dollar question if you know what I mean...Him not knowing is highly unlikely, but like I've said before...thats just my personal opinion on that matter.

    Dont get me wrong...I do understand your stance on this!:good

    I hate cheating but boxing needs all the good fighters and fights it can muster. If he can start winning again and we know for sure he is doing it fairly then i believe he should be given the chance. No matter what he achieves now he will never shake the cheat label anyway.

    But what if roids allowed him to train harder and longer, therefore improving his stamina. Now instead of shane mosley slowing down at the end of the fight, he's still hits like a mule towards the end of the fight ...


    BTW he still took roids, however you want to slice it.

    So what if pac did test positive for roids?? It's ok becuase he has shown that he has speed and power in his previous fights ...Right????

    And I understand yours'. Maybe fighters should start wrapping their own fists the way Arguello did. That way they'll be solely responsible for any wrong doing with the wraps. :thumbsup

    If I was completely sure he really did this I'd boycott his fights for sure, but I'm not missing the Pac-Clottey fight because of his ass. I think with using commons sense in the future both fighters should be in one room have their hands wrapped in the presence of an official then go back to their dressing rooms. I think this would save time and hassle.

    But Mosley is an athlete and he's trained for 12 rounds. You're going to be more hurt by him having plaster inserts than if he was on roids.

    Sure he won't wear down as much going down the stretch, but you won't be able to make it past 2 if he was wearing illegal inserts.


    I never denied he did, I have always been on Shane Mosley for admitting to KNOWINGLY taking EPO etc.



    No it's not okay. I'm not saying that, you are putting words in my mouth.

    I merely stated one is worse than the other.

    I'd rather be hit by Mosley who was on EPO than if he had plaster inserts his gloves.

    Please stop putting words in my mouth.

    All your bickering sucks...you wanna boycott Margarito because you hate him and wanna **** his wife. Admit it your immoral mother****ers.

    On a serious note, Mosley, Toney, and Margarito are in the same boat. ..They are all cheaters. :p Let's boycott Mosley vs Mayweather. How about it, Eze?

    I really don't think their will be boycotting of any type. Fans wanna see him redeem himself and haters want to see him get brutally ko'd. It's a win-win.

    Margarito lost all respect when he tried to cheat. His actions cast clouds of doubt over the rest of his career. He should be banned for life.

    That's a little unfair to his opponents don't you think? Why should they suffer because Margarito did something stupid? Don't boycott it, just root for him to lose.

    Personally I'm of the stance that Margarito ****ed up but has paid his debt and deserves the opportunity to fight again. I don't have to like him to believe he deserves the opportunity to redeem himself.
