Mosley was doing well in schooling the mofo. Heck, he should beat the living crap out of that loser...
CHEF...are you saying that it is the sweat that mixes with the powder which then dries and makes the wraps harden??
The loaded gloves could make Cotto not throw with full force because it meant Cotto had to set his feet and become vulnerable to the loaded gloves. Now if you look at the fight you can see the instant damage margo"s punches was creating. Cotto was hit before but it never cause his face to get busted up like it did. **** even Judah landed some devestating punches on Cotto and didn't swell him up like that. In the Cotto fight Margo's punches didn't even look like it was landing all that hard....I believe Margo cheated in that fight.
According to an article in LAT, Margarito's camp will likely be subject to little more than a disciplinary action if the substance is found to be illegal, because the violation was caught before Margarito stepped into the ring. :-( http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/sports_blog/2009/01/officials-found.html
Margarito felt that A) He needed to cheat and B) He could get away with it in a fight of this magnitude. That tells me he's cheated before. It's like a baseball player that gets caught with cork in his bat.
:dealGood point on B.He must of known it was Nazim who would be there in the dressing room to oversee the wrapping and we all know about Nazim and Titos wraps.
yeah thats what it is but its your conventional wrap coated in the plaster. I spent 2 months in Africa last year volunteering in an orthapedic opporating theater. The wraps look basically like a conventional hand wrap only with a completely different texture. The way you make a cast isn't actually all that much different from the way you wrap a hand.
From what i understand its a substance that looks like the wrap and is soft...then as a guys hand seats it get wet and starts to harden like having a cast on your hands.
Yeah man my bro made the same point durrring the fight when I made a comment about mosely fighting much ballier then cotto. I was just being an ass clown there.
sure you did this tarnishes everything though. Illegal wraps or not Margo still gets wasted by shane tonight. He didn't land much of anything and got teed off on in the process.
