    So you've got the goods on him huh ? He's a few fries short of a happy meal I think. I'm surprised they've let him go as long as he has.

    One thing I notice that doesn’t get said anymore is “his wraps were cracked”. I guess they finally took a good look at the pictures and seen it was string.

    Yeah that was a hoot wasn't it , like one clown said the pink stains on Marg's wraps was blood from when he beat the living hell out of Cotto lol. How that transferred through his Gloves I don't know. They've tried all sorts of excuses. If there was any proof whatsoever he'd cheated the CSAC would have indicted him. Their lawyers told them not to do that obviously they'd be laughed out of court & Marg could have been a very rich man

    I hated seeing Margarito's Good name & career be tarnished based on what was a typical Naz Richardson lie
    claiming the opponents wraps were illegal. What I wanted to see more than anything was Margarito/Floyd
    but that was never going to happen Floyd doesn't have the stones. Those videos proved that. This BS loaded gloves deal gave him the ideal excuse not to have to ever fight Tony. (I wouldn't be one bit surprised if the real story comes out that he was behind it

    He would have been banned for life. Csac screwed up and was in no position to look even more incompetent so they had to do something to look like they did something. If other commissions felt Tony was wrong, they would have banned him too. The evidence just wasn’t there. But like I said, people hated him already and it’s only because he was not a technical fighter by their standards and was beating guys they picked him to lose to. They can never explain why nobody has ever come forward and said his wraps were hard after shaking hands with so many people after in the ring.

    Man that documentary looked so boring, seems jumbled up as it's all over the place without making it entertaining, never bothered watching it, should have learnt how to do boxing docus better with more behind the scenes stories & unseen footage,

    So you're the guy holding the brown coat & were you a part of the security for that fight or are you the camera man?
