    This has been discussed to nauseum. If Margartio was a cheat, he didn't get the chance to be that in Nevada against Cotto.
    All fighters must wrap with the materials given to them in a sealed bag by the NSAC and they must do so in the presense of a NSAC inspector.
    If Margartio had loaded wraps vs Cotto, the NSAC was in on it with Margarito. I'd say there is close to zero chance that that happened.

    Face the pure facts, Cotto got bloodgeoned by a physically relentless Margarito who simply could absorb more punishment and had way more staying power than one Miguel Cotto.

    I hear you. It's just that if given the opportunity to train, I wouldn't pick Joe. He's not textbook, not a craftsmen, but he always won. an Iron will IMO & limitless gas tank to boot.
    Good call on Vivian Harris, wasn't sure if he failed to live up to expectations or was never that great?
