Anybody else think getting caught cheating took Tony's focus from the job in hand?

Let's see. Get caught cheating with your hand wraps. Compared to.... Divorce, new trainer, getting older, and a BALCO scandal. Sounds like it's a bit of a stupid excuse if it's one you're trying to make. I'm not making excuses. Not only did I make in excess of 30K for that fight, I was rooting for Mosley too. I'm just saying that kind of shit has to play on your mind, if only a little bit. For the record, if Tony didn't cheat he wouldn't have gotten caught, but I still think we would have seen the same outcome in the fight. Shane was absolutely on fire tonight, possibly his best ever performance.

There is no doubt about it, it messed up Tony's focus. As Teddy Atlas always say, boxing is 25% physical, 75% mental.

I made 80k because I knew Margarito was a cunt-rag, sorry for my language. I'm mad, I didn't really want to hear all this cheating stuff going on tonight. I had suspicions he cheated against cotto, clottey, and williams. Now my suspicions are probably correct.

actually i do. he knew how he would be viewed and he knew the info was comin out. i also think he wouldve lost anyway.
