    I think a lifetime ban is in order for this. I hope someone beats the crap out of Margarito on the street to teach him a lesson for this. What a disgusting joke Margarito is.

    Lifetime ban for the trainer and a 1 year ban for Margo would be good IMO. How did the trainer only get 1 year?

    Oh well, so much for the people calling me names for saying he was a cheat back then.

    Both their licenses were revoked. They can reapply after 1 year, but there is nothing that states either one has to get their license back after a year. So basically, there's no definate timetable as to how long the ban will last, but it will last for at least 1 year.

    Let's wait for all the facts to come out. Yes, there's eyewitness testimony, yes, a revocation of licenses occured, and yes we now have physical evidence from these lab results. However, until Margartio stands up and says that he inteded to cheat or there is a video of him declaring that he intended to cheat, then he may be innocent. Maybe he didn't know or simply missinterpreted the rules.:roll:

    I don't think Margo should get lifetime but it needs to be more than 1 year.... 1 year is typically what top fighters take off anyway.

    Considering how little play boxing gets with the mainstream media, I have to think that any publicity is good publicity, unless it's the type of thing that will get boxing banned.

    I still think that Margo and people close to him i.e. Arum will try to put the blame on Javier Capetillo, trust me. Thats the only way Margo could be saved at this point because anyone who thinks or believes that Margo didnt know what was been put in his gloves is a mother****ing MORON. I dont care how you look at it there is NO way he didnt know. These dudes are profesional and will be held accountable for anything their ENTIRE team does so wouldnt be in your best interest to know EVERYTHING that is going on around? :huh

    espn has actually been doing good job recently

    i forget what fight they showed on the ticker (the thing below the screen) i think it might have been the andrade fight or something & when the haye fight was official i think that also got some attention on the ticker
