..."ears ripped off","loaded gloves",specially treated wraps","blended water bottles"(pryor/Arguello),"ster­oids", "catch weights", you get the picture.Fighters have died in the past due to their injuries in the ring, we can't allow ANYONE to jeopardize the safety and wellbeing of a fellow boxer just to have an "edge";again 'i'm not implying that Margo and his team did cheated,i just don't want to see a tragedy in the ring because of it,BTW,i'm a faithfull box fan,37+ years,peace!

177bandit - I'm w/you all the way and yet there are ass clowns crying for Panama Lewis to be reinstated when HE is responsible for Billy Collins' death. In the span of 7 months we have a bottle mixed with something when only water is allowed and then horse hair removed from Resto's gloves. And these fuckers want this guy back b/c he deserves to earn a living, Right!

With Margarito, I truly believe that this is a promotional witch hunt plain and simple. He wrecked the bigger plans others had.

...don't get me wrong. i never said that Margo cheated against Cotto, only Margo and Capetillo know for sure,but we don't need fools like this to taint a sport that is already dangerous as it is,the implication or at least the appearance of wrong doing is something that this sport that we lov eso much dosen't need...

177 My biggest beef w/ the Margarito thing is,A COMMISSIONER ALLOWED HIS HANDS TO BE WRAPPED.I laugh my ass off at Nazeem saying there is something hard under there. Yeah its his f'n fist.Have you ever had your hands professionally wrapped w/ 1 roll of gauze and 1 roll of tape per hand?I have and it feels like I could knock buildings down its so hard.

My point is this is being blown WAY OUT of proportion especially when all that was found were traces of sodium and phosphate not the compound

[177bandit]

...Margo will be lucky if he dosen't get charge and indicted by the California department of justice,this is proffesssional boxing gentlemen, not "Hard times" movie with the late Charles Bronson,and even in that movie there was honor between men,peace!

177bandit- don't hold your breath even if you're one of those people that requires HBO to do your thinking for you. It was California State Athletic Commission that allowed and signed off on the tainted hand wraps to begin with. Secondly, nobody and I mean nobody has any proof Margarito ever stepped intoany ring with tainted hand wraps. All of this is HBO's gay romance with Golden Boy Promotion speculation.

PS

Use some critical thinking it comes in handy especially in professional boxing

This is the only site where I get sensible analysis and objective re-creation of what transpired during a fight.
