Tijuana Tornado-He's back....

Nope

As Cotto says you know what someones putting on your hands. A hard block...put on your hands...you know that's not right. He can play dumb all he likes he knows he was going out with bad intentions.

He put at risk not only a man's life but a sport. He could of killed someone and i think the bans are not good enough.

Innocent Until Proven Guilty...but i can't for one minute buy he didn't know his wraps were illegal and that it was first time...it his hands were wrapped like that.

 

Innocent until proven guilty. Which he wasn't in my book (proven guilty that is), simple as that.

 

My own personal view is that any boxer caught with loaded gloves or testing positive for steroids should be banned for life.

However, given the sport's general reluctance to properly punish drug cheats such as Vargas, Toney et al, Margarito has served his ban and has every right to earn a living fighting.

Plus, there is no proof that Margarito ever entered any other fight with illegal wraps - after all they are inspected by the commission and signed off.

 

where can i watch ?

 

Yep it did mate. He never been same....and sadly never will be.
That night he boxed like he never boxed before it was a beautiful display and people forget that. He maybe should of held and took tempo out of the attacks of Margo. I one of my saddest nights as a fan looking back. I think there was a injustice but if so..Cotto's people were to blame as well as the commissions.

 

I take a different view on Cotto. The guys a good but not great fighter and I think we've seen what we we're going to see out of him.

Margo beat Cotto because of his ability to take punches and maintain pressure, something Cotto has struggled with throughout his career.

No one can say for definate what part the handwraps did or didn't play in the fight but in my opinion it didn't change the result or Cottos subsequent career.

 

I'm happy he's back......

Man wants to fight, let him fight..!!!

 

I think Cotto was going to lose that fight anyway, with or without the illegal wraps (and as people have said, there's no proof he actually loaded his gloves against Cotto). He gave Margarito the kitchen sink, couldn't get past Margarito's chin though, which was nothing short of granite that night. Then Cotto lost his heart, actually Margarito broke Cotto's heart, sort of like Pacquiao, but you can argue Cotto was damaged goods then.

Is he fighting in Mexico when he returns?

 

No proof he has ever used illegal wraps in the ring, I wasn't too sold on the results of the wraps analysis either, a little odd for my liking.

 

Hmm he seems a bit of a slimy ******* to me now, letting his trainer take the fall pleading ignorance etc.

Saying that that insert looked like it wouldn't exactly turn your glove into a horseshoe it was a slither of a thing.
