    That certainly is a very puzzling question.

    However, I think it's even far more puzzling why a previous commission AND an opposing trainer would either deliberately allow him to cheat, or wouldn't check his gloves in the first place.

    Cotto's trainer wasn't watching when they were wrapping Margarito's hands.
    The only guy watching from Cotto's side was a lawyer if I remember correctly.

    Put the wrap aside, why didn't Cotto KO his ass? He hit him with clean shots all night long

    Were you there when Margarito was getting his hands wrapped for the Cotto fight?

    You know it's standard operating procedure for the opposing corner to
    watch over the hand-wrappings. Why were they not doing their job?

    And by your own admission the commision's integrity is dubious at best...............and we are supposed to believe what they are saying now
    without question?:lol:

    It was said in an interview that the only one representing Cotto's side was his lawyer.
    His trainer wasn't there.

    Hard to say, the commission wasn't the one to spot the plaster, Mosley's trainer did. Which also makes me wonder, why the hell aren't they doing their job?

    Margarito beat Cotto.
    The style clash was almost guaranteed considering Cotto's ability to take punishment.
    (Going in I didn't think Cotto would take what he gave like Margarito was willing/Did do.)

    All the Plaster talk is void here.

    If you think Margo just suddenly decided to start cheating against 37 yr old Mosley, you are a ******.

    Seriously. You're just stupid.

    I'm pretty sure I could beat Cotto with a hammer in each hand too.

    I think Margarito cheated against Cotto, but he would probably beat him anyway, it was his chin and work rate that won him the fight, and Cotto fought out a stupid gameplan. Williams would most likely be too big and rangy for anyone at welter, Cotto included.

    Addendum: If you think having plaster casts on his hands didn't affect Cotto in the fight with Margarito, you are an idiot.

    Short and simple. You are too dumb to be posting your opinions in a public place. Stop now.
