    I thought your opponent's trainer is suppose to watch the taping of your hands and inspect the gloves pre-fight.

    I just don't see how this "loading" was not seen before......and more important...why would Margo let it be done to him anyway....knowing his legacy would be on the line.

    Same reason I give Tito the benefit of the doubt. Over 35 pro fights and no one seen **** before Nazim checked them out. Nazim must have x ray vision.

    If as people seem to think that Tony's been at this for a while then someone from Cotto's team will have had a quite word with Nazim.

    Shouldn't there be some authority in each fighter's dressing room to make sure there is nothing fishy going on? All hand wraps should be inspected by someone of authority before being put on the fighter's hands. If this procedure is already in place, than the authority who was in Margo's dressing room should be banned from the sport and face other punishment.

    This is what I dont understand. Mosley's trainer did in fact notice something AFTER the hands were already wrapped. It was only after the hands were UNWRAPED that they found the illegal stuff.

    This means that somehow Margarito's camp knew how to put the **** in there without anyone noticing it. Which means that it was probably something that needed time to harden, therefore the only way to caught them was to wait some time and then making him unwrap his hands.

    This would clearly explain why noone, not Cotto's people, or Cintron's people or Clottey's people or anyone before notice it. They didnt make him unwrap his hands. Mosleys trainer and people only found out after they made him unwrap his hands. If they didnt, Mosley would have been given the concrete punch treatment too.
