Tony Margarito Comeback Express! "Im willing to die in the ring"- Margo

Pre-fight controversy
Margarito, who was suspended for a year after a plaster-like substance was discovered in his hand wraps prior to his 2009 bout with Shane Mosley, made one final attempt to bend the rules before stepping into the ring with Pacquiao.
Said promoter Bob Arum: Margarito was preparing to take a drink with a substance — ephedrine. We had people from each camp in the other camp’s dressing room. The Pacquiao camp protested and words were exchanged. [Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation Executive Director] Bill Kuntz came in, quieted everything down and told Margarito that he wasn’t allowed to take the drink. So he didn’t. In other words, it was handled in the proper manner. He had the thing ready to take and it never got into the water.”
Pacquiao’s conditioning coach Alex Ariza said that the substance ephedrine can “amp you up” and increase your energy output if enough of the substance is taken. He feels that Margarito still doesn’t believe in fighting on an even playing field. “So I can give Manny a hit of cocaine, even though I know it’s illegal? That is cheating. You don’t think I want to jack Manny up and give him a Super Fuel or those kind of things? You have to go in there balanced. If you’re not allowed to do this, I’m not allowed to do this.”
When asked whether or not he believed Margarito was a compulsive cheater, Roach said, “I don’t know about compulsive, but I’m pretty sure [Miguel] Cotto is probably happy we paid him back tonight,” alluding to the widespread belief that Margarito used loaded hand wraps in their 2008 encounter.

dude, was it ever confimred what was in that damn water?

they got the f'n evidence right there in their hand.

 

I know who wrote this article, I'm gonna ask him if he followed up to find out the truth behind this.

 

so u salute a cheater? thats odd to say the least.

 

thumbs up for the badass mofo. smiles when got punched in the face.

i think he enjoys the pain:!:

 

Wrong~ I am puerto rican and do not lable him as a cheater, he was caught up in some **** with his slimey trainer but honestly I beleive he beat Cotto and everybody else fair.

 

Margarito is a true Mexican, he was near death in November, he would have died in the ring for Mexicans everywhere.

 

I salute his face being pounded again into a pizza

 

Go **** yourself with the brush you use to paint broad strokes with.

 

This, he's a ****ing cheater who never admitted his wrongs. Seeing his face get pounded in for 12 rounds by Pac was very satisfying.

 

yayy for the cheater
