    I've always liked Tony, but I wasn't too impressed with him in the latest edition of 24/7. If you're a guy who's been caught red-handed trying to enhance your fists into career-damaging weapons, the last thing you should is ****ing joke about it. Yes you were directing it to Pacquiao's comments last week, but I doubt Nazim, Mosley and Cotto found that funny.

    Even though it's unlikely, I hope Manny smashes your face in just like Mosley did.

    Yeah. He's a genuine ****, no doubt about it. Same as taking the **** out of Cintron - who I dislike anyway - at the press conference rematch when he probably used them in that fight aswell. There's no way that he didn't know as a professional fighter of many years experience. And in my mind, there's no way he didn't use them before. Why would he feel the need to use them on a one-off against a supposed past-prime Mosley in a fight he was favoured to win, and not against a peak, elite Cotto when he was a heavy underdog.

    Rios seems like an arsehole aswell now. I hope Pacquiao beats the **** out of Margarito and he never fights again. That would be justice.

    Exactly. That's the type of stuff you should be ashamed of for the rest of your life, not joking about it a year later when you've been given a ridiculously fantastic opportunity that you don't even deserve!

    And yes, Rios was acting a right dickhead in that episode too. Both of them calling Manny a *****, *******, ***** etc, is something you expect from the Mayweathers.

    I reallly thought that was uncalled for.

    Who knows hom many times he has used those bricks on other fighters. Cotto,Williams,Cintron, Golden Johnson its not right.

    Id be surprised if he got his boxing license reinstated in Nevada after this fight win or lose.

    It's not just the fact that he is joking about it. He claims he was unaware of the wraps against Mosley, so how does he know that his trainer hadn't used them before?

    I don't know. I had a weird reaction to that one.

    When Manny mocked him the week before, I thought, "If that's how you feel, why the **** are you fighting him, then?"

    When Margo did that in response, I thought it was sort-of funny at first. Then I thought, "Hang on. What the **** is going on? You're damned lucky to get this fight and probably shouldn't be so jokey about your own crime".

    Then I remembered that it's all just bull**** to sell some PPVs, and I stopped giving a ****.

    Exactly. If that was indeed the first time he'd had those inserted in his hands without his knowledge, then surely he must have had the thought "hmmm, my hands and wrapping feel different".

    Dude knew exactly what was going on.

    Like I said in an earlier post, that was hilarious! But moments after I got a sick feeling thinking if Margarito had really known about about the illegal wraps and be able to joke about when in reality loaded gloves are no laughing matter.

    So I am not voting because I'm not sure what to make of it. But yes, it was damn funny.

    He was just joking around trying to have some fun. I don't really like Rios that much, in Sechback videos and in 24/7 he just seems like an *******.

    Well I'm sure I've read a quote with him stating that the wraps did feel different...yet he never brought it up, which makes me think that there was a possibility that he knew about them...because otherwise why didn't he tell his trainer? It was only when Richardson stepped in.

    Anyway, he came across as a ***** in that episode...and it doesn't really help his popularity.
