    What do you think he can do to get the fans support back if at all? Would a rematch with Cotto mean anything even if he wins? My opinion is that no matter what the outcome would be in a rematch, the people would always have a tainted few of him and discredit him anyway.


    What do you think?

    if he keeps winning people will forget what he did as time goes forward, there would be the odd statement about his hand wraps, but they would also be discussing his chin, and performances in fights.

    to gain respect
    he needs to beat up someone people want to see beaten
    and then show his gloves to camera, and hand wraps
    but no one would fight him now anyway

    I still want him to do well

    Not in my eyes!

    He's a cheating ******* and could have killed opponents with that ****! I hope he gets locked inside a tijuana taxi cab and gets cooked by the blazing Mexican sun.:twisted:

    Credit to Shane for busting his punk ass!

    Is his suspension over? I thought he was supposed to be fighting someone already?

    Ironic that you invoke Mosley in a post saying that Margarito can never be redeemed, given that Mosley is a self-confessed drugs cheat and you seem to have forgiven him that?

    it will be tough. with one on one combat being the unique nature of the competition in boxing (as opposed to any other sport), to wrap your hands like that is probably the worst form of cheating across the entire athletic spectrum.

    i mean, is there a way to cheat in any other sport that would rival wrapping your hands before you step in the ring to beat on another man's head?

    i mean...looking at it from an American sportsman's perspective: football, baseball, golf, tennis, hockey, basketball, wrestling (real wrestling mind you), track, etc. What form of cheating in any of these sports could have as devastating consequences and what margo did?

    well i'm glad Margarito has got some **** on these previous posts (although some a little extreme) because he has always been a boxer that boxing fans and media like to lick his ass, which is why he didn't get the public slaying he deserved when this came out (imagine if this had happened to Amir Khan or PBF) they would have ordered the death penalty

    There is no way that a boxer would not know if a trainer was putting plaster into his wraps, lets not kid ourselves HE KNEW and he HAS done it before especially the cotto fight which has for me robbed Cotto of an even better career

    He should be banned from all boxing for life and face criminal charges an UTTER DISGRACE

    Not in my eyes, too many questions of how often he did it before he was caught?

    No. He committed an unforgivable crime by fighting with padded gloves.

    I hope he comes back and does well.
    Who knows for sure whose fault it was, but its over and he took his penality. Shane got forgiven for roids, so why not margarito

    Has Shane been fined, suspended or convicted?

    If Shane was loaded then it was by accident where as Margarito knew exactly what he was doing! He passed a lie detector test and thats good enough for me.

    That was the standard comeback but it's not the same and you know it!

    **** HIM, his next fight should have been behind bars! I will never ever watch him again and if a station puts his fight on I may send in a letter of protest and boycott.

    Shane has never confessed or been caught with anything. In fact he is suing the individual who made those allegations. Besides it is always that scumbags fans who bring up that crap trying to cloud the issue. We are Talking about that A$$hole who could have killed someone!
