    And after decade or two the wrap scandal might be overlooked by new boxing fans.

    What did he not gain? 6 million dollars, title shot, and redemption to a degree.

    The better question is what did he do to gain all this and a title shot? He quite possibly shortened Cottos career, Cotto is not the same fighter anymore thanks to the Margarito's loaded handwraps.

    We dont know how good this cheat really is, he may have been fighting with loaded gloves his entire career. Ever since hes been fighting clean. He lost to a 38 yr old Mosley in a one sided beating. He looked very average against a journeyman. Then gets a title shot with 6 million dollars. Pacman just beat Mosleys left over

    I think he showed he wasnt using wraps all along like people thouhgt. The man bruised up Pac pretty good and actually hurt him with a body punch which is his money punch all along his career. Name the last person that hurt Pac.

    The money and the right to hold his head up as a boxer again. I'd suspect for him the 2nd part is equally if not more important.

    Probably like $8 Million if PPV sales of 1.4-1.5M are accurate.
