Yeah it's horrid. It's beyond dirty, it's really ****ed up m'man, you know... I am speechless. All this is, is a big black eye to boxing.
Mosley used roids in 03. That is a long ass time ago, while Margo has been caught red handed, just a few days ago. BTW, lets all continue to ignore the lie detector test, as well as the fact that Mosley got schooled in the steroid fight.
From the article that was posted: Hopefully, investigators will determine that the pads werent unusually hard after all. And, if it does prove to be true, Richardson allowed for the possibility that Margarito wasnt fully aware of what was in his gloves. Things like this should be considered before conclusions are drawn. The results of the investigation may indeed show that the pads were not "unusually hard." All we have are the words of the other fighter's trainer, hardly an unbiased source!
I don't think neither you or me can tell for which fights exactly he used them for. If he used it against DLH the second time, chances are he used them to move up to the 154lbs division for his fights with Winky. I can't explain how he passed a lie detector test, but he sure as hell ain't buying injections worth $2.000, thinking it's Vitamins.
Yep Shane passed a lie detector test so there is a possibility he really did not know at the time. It is also possible Margarito did not fully know according to Naazim but his trainer definitely knew. Naazim said he wanted punch Margarito's trainer for doing it saying he could of got Shane killed. Naazim feels pretty certain about the "hard plaster like pad" they found wrapped over Margarito's knuckles.
The funny thing about the Mosley situation is that he was actually at his worst when he bulked up His best assets, speed and workrate, diminished and his punching power didn't improve substantially. It looked like his career was about over but once he slimmed down again he started looking like his old self
According to Balco he wasn't a so called cheat until 03. Do you really think they'd lie in favor of someone? Also, the Balco story dropped way before the Winky fight took place. That is the reason people say he looked weak in there with Winky. Do you really think he went back on the roids after all of the controversy? Either way, he lost to Winky and should have lost to Oscar.
I don't really care about the Margo thing. Its new thus its news. No matter what, he was going to get his ass whipped by Shane.
I guess it might be possible Margarito believed his trainer was using a "hard pad" as hand protection? Seems odd.
this just goes to show how stupid boxing fans are. People are making such a big deal out of this but even Shane thinks its not that big a deal. But unfortunately boxing fans love to hate on a boxer.
