Yet he isn't, because of his dishonorable actions against Mendy (who is fighting tomorrow). He shouldn't be fighting ever, because of those actions.
People were calling for a lifetime ban on Margarito after he was caught out. :conf Illegal shots against defenseless opponents are as bad as loading your gloves. They're both in the same categories of "potentially causing senseless brain damage" and "beyond unsportsmanlike".
No mate...loading gloves is pre meditated....late shots in big fights is a split second brain snap :deal IMO big difference :thumbsup
also see loaded punches after the bell made in a split second are these also life ban offences very hysterical point of view
RUBBISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i know why he isn't fighting, but haven't heard much news. seems he is very quiet until its time to fight. maybe shy by nature, who knows. how about life bans for punching the back of the head? or 5 year bans for low blow? maybe 12 month bans for clinching? lol.
I'm not saying all late punches are worthy of such scorn. Bika's in that particular instance was clearly premeditated. He thought about it, then did it. It wasn't a "brain snap".
