Antonio Margarito's gloves were NEVER loaded, irrefutable facts.

Wait so was it gauze? was it plaster or was there nothing?

 

Who gives a **** if its plaster of paris or the arm of a teddy bear, it was illegal to load your gloves with anything. So this thread is about not debunking the cheating myth, rather its about debunking how he cheated?:rofl

 

At the hearing, Margarito claimed he did not know what was in the wraps, while Capetillo admitted to making "a big mistake" by placing the wrong inserts into Margarito's hand wraps. The commission voted unanimously to revoke Margarito and Capetillo's licenses for at least one year. While it found Margarito did not know about the gloves, it took the line that as head of the team, he was responsible for Capetillo's actions.

SO rather it was plaster or not, there was something illegal that was about to be used in his gloves....deal with it!!...Why make a thread about this?

 

DId capatillo say it was old gauze? Margarito just claims to have no knowledge of the gloves being loaded. Do you think the NSAC and the CAC would do all this to conspire against margarita? They did all this over old gauze? They had hearings & got legal counsel involved over old gauze?

Its illegal to use anyting but fresh gauze.
Old made up knucklepads are moistened with sweat with every use and are compressed offering a firmer piece.

You can only compress fresh gauze so much, but a used one thats been previously wet through sweat is compressed that you can add more fresh gauze on top and not have it look so bulky.

Its illegal but I dont reckon it causes much more damage than a fresh piece of guaze would.
I would guess that you gain some advantage using it, but not enough to tear someones face with it.
Plaster of Paris it is not!

 

Hats off to you, OP. Five star thread.

 

This.


Also, if you LISTEN to Margo's punches, before and after, there is a definite difference in how they sound. That's all the evidence I need.

 

Margarito was cheating
