    It's one thing to cheat with steroids, it's another to load the wraps.

    BTW, what Luis Resto and Antonio Margarito did are way different.

    Ask yourself, do you want to be hit by Mosley with loaded wraps without steroids or Mosley with steroids?

    Roy taking a supplement you could buy at GNC, that wasn't made illegal till 2004, is not the same thing as putting bricks in your gloves in my opinion.

    I'm not black, so your point is null.

    Considering, I can't stand David Haye, thought Andre Dirrell was faking at first, never been much a fan of Mosleys.

    Anyone in theft prevention knows that a caught thief, was thieving before he got caught as well.

    It all fits in that Marg used loaded wraps. You sweat through the fight, the wraps harden, punches have more of an effect. Cotto started getting hurt a lot more as the fight progressed and his face was badly cut up all of a sudden.

    Margarito PROBABLY used the wraps in previous fights. We'll never know but different people will take different positions in this matter. Personally, it makes no difference whether he did or not because those fights are in the past. Margarito will prove to be a weak puncher without the wraps if he depended on them to climb to the top - as a lot of people have proposed.

    I think it's being made out to be a bigger deal than it was because so much was left to the public's imagination. No real evidence was shared and the only thing said was that the wraps contained compounds found in plaster.

    Anyone getting their panties bunched up, in either direction, is wasting their time. No one is going to change their position on this because there's no real evidence either way.

    Andro was legal before it was illegal. IE, It was not illegal at the time, it was sold at GNC. I'm not saying it was ethical to use it, but when pro hormones first hit the scene their power and similarity to steroids was not fully appreciated by most people.
