    Garfield, Maragarito didnt have casts on his hands as was misrepresented in HBO's ASSAULT IN THE RING and anyone with a lick of sense and decency knows it. Now you claim to have trained champion fighters so you must still have some gloves around to do an experiment in accord to the testimonies. According to Richardson: "When he opened it up, a little square block of old wet gauze packed real tight came out," .... by the later rounds you're basically getting hit with that plaster in there. "

    So Guys go make two plaster and gauze balls or bricks and place them into any kind of knuckle pad you want. Now tape the two pads to each group of knuckles and gently place your hands into your boxing gloves. Now advance to something that you feel is equivalent to a human face, like a punching bag and punch it repeatedly as hard as you can. Please let us know the results.:think

    I cant believe anyone could ask such a truly stupid question? Have you ever been to school?

    Punches hurt without plaster in your wraps dont they? So it stands to reason that having solid plaster in your ****ing hand wraps is going to do even more damage.

    Honestly are you serious?

    what do you think they'll do to the knuckle then...if you're claiming they would penetrate thru the wrap, tape and glove to cause harm to the opponent...then what will happen to the fighters knuckle that only has a layer of tape and gauze over it

    I would think that a small block of wet gauze though illegal, would help the fighter wearing it protect his knuckles.......
    How it would actually do more damage on impact on the other fighter recieving the blow, I just dont see where it would do much damage if at all, considering that lots more gauze is placed on top of that knucklepad, and then you have the actual glove with padding on top of that as well.

    If the actuall knucklepad found on Margarito was actually hard, that piece is right on top of Margarito's knuckles, his hands are recieving the damage from the impact.......on top of the knucklepad is the vast gauze and the padded glove......
    Common sense tells me that unless Margarito's bones in his hands are made of iron, his hand is going to recieve the brunt of the damage from the punching impact and not the opponent.


    Would'nt you all agree that in order for a fighter to successfully plaster his wraps to do damage on his opponent and not his own hands, you would have to use a legal soft knucklepad on top of the knuckles, legal gauze on top of that, and then use a few layers of plastered gauze to wrap on top of the soft gauze?

    ......meaning the plaster would be at the outside of the wraps touching the inside of the boxing glove......the inside of the handwrap being soft to absorb the shock to the fighter wearing the plastered wraps.


    In Margarito's case, it was allegedly the reverse, the hard part closer to Margarito's own skin and the soft gauze at the very top.......
    ......just does'nt make sense to me if the plan was to hurt your opponent.




    For example, Freddie Roach has been quoted that for the first Pacquiao-Barrera fight, Barrera attempted to use a roll of gauze to wrap around his hands that contained plaster. The roll allegedly was the type doctors used to roll around a hand or foot and make a cast.
    .......now if that had been confiscated from Margarito's team and Capetillo was using that type of gauze to finish off the handwraps on Margarito, then I believe you could say that the intention certainly in that case would be to gain an unfair punching advantage and put your opponent in serious jeopardy of getting seriously hurt.




    Again people, what was found on Margarito was a used moist (to this day it has yet to harden like a cast)knucklepad placed right on top of his knuckles, with legal (not plaster) gauze wrapped in layers around and above that used moist knucklepad.


    Capetillo cheated, but it was'nt because he used a block of plaster on top of Margarito's knuckles.......its because he used a pillow of used moist gauze (likely meant to protect Margarito's knuckles) underneath the legal gauze that was wrapped to make Margarito's handwrap.

    Exactly and like I said, even if Margarito had a good pad under these so called hard inserts, which he didnt, they would still damage his knuckles.

    Now the so called Barrera and resto casts seems to be something that would actually damage their opponent but Barrera was probably protected by GBP so nothing came of it and leave it to hypocrits like Latina beater Lampley and Latina statutory rapists Oscar to slander Margarito.

    ..and yes Capetillo cheated (possibly naively) but only in a way to "protect" his fighter's knuckles and in a way much less sinister than xylocaine

    did you ****ing notice the picture of Corrales you dip ****? his left hand has the same color... I guess being as big of a puncher as he was he had cement as well right?
    The red color is NOT blood that would have surfaced in the lab results, its Dye from the inside of the glove.. I wouldnt expect someone like you to know this becuase you have never put on a set...

    But its very common, in pro fights on this level they all use NEW gloves which this happens with all the time, put on a pair of brand new reyes gloves with fresh white gauze wrapping your hands work out in them at the gym for about an hour and see what color appears on the gauze when you take them off..

    you didnt even read the ****ing post yet you replied to it as if you understood what I was saying, Chicos left hand has the same red spot and its not from blood.

    Plus, sulphur with calcium sometimes turns reddish over time and thats why its occasionally called "liver of sulfur" . However, boxer's knuckles do often bleed a tad after many rounds of power pounding friction but if they were to have plaster inserts on their knuckles, there would be blood running down their legs into their boots and all over the ring apron and probably even spatter over to Merchant's, Steward's and Lampley's faces
