Coming from a Marg fan...

It made no difference, Margarito didn't land ANYTHING and his chin wasn't affected by the "cheating" So him not using the wraps is irrelevent because he landed almost nothing significant I know this may sound a little odd, but when I first seen your sig somewhere else, the towel being thrown looked like an air bag...

Bro, It isn't our job to prove he used the same wrapping in the Cotto fight. It's Marg's job to prove he never wrapped em like that in the past. Marg believed the hand wrap job was legal. So Why WOULDN'T he do the same wrapping for the Cotto fight, if he believed it was ok to wrap them that way? http://i423.photobucket.com/albums/pp312/anonymousboxing/margabricko.gif Because nobody ever mentioned it before.

I love how mexicans try to downplay the cheating. Big coincidence he got KTFO when he got caught with his little inserts.

No ones taking anything away from anyone !!! Shane fought a great fight and executed perfectly. Mosely is a hall of fame boxer and he showed it on Saturday night. If Cotto acquired the same tactic of grabbing/smothering him after every exchange and nullifying Margaritos come back instead of going backwards dodging & weaving wasting energy like an idiot the outcome would've been different. Everything has to be taken into consideration cuz no one really knows. Personally I don't think Cotto is as strong as Mosley. It's easy to say that IF Cotto would have done the same thing, then he could have beat Marg. The fact is, Cotto was landing at will vs Marg and couldn't hurt him, yet Mosley's punches were much, much harder. I just think that styles make fights and Mosley was faster and stronger than Marg had anticipated. It could be totally different if Cotto rematches Mosley, who knows.

My heads in the clear. So, again, explain to me why nobody else has ever caught and why Richardson has a history of doing this? I'll tell you why, because its most likely never been done before, and Richardson plays mental games as good as anyone. Bro, It isn't our job to prove he used the same wrapping in the Cotto fight.

Everything has to be taken into consideration cuz no one really knows. Have you seen the threads that say something like "Do you think Cotto was the reason Shane won"? It's true that we don't know but I think it's safer to say Richardson did much more as a trainer than Cotto did softening Margarito. After all, Margarito was standing after the Cotto fight wasn't he? He was the winner right. He did take Cotto's punches, no? Had he dropped Margarito, then a valid point could be made but he didn't...

Other then Mosley's consistence, speed, power and his right hand the whole night, I would say Naazim Richardson deserves much more credit for helping Shane then does Cotto. I dislike when people take away credit from a boxer and give it to another when the real credit should go to the person who beat Margarito. The rematch between Mosley and Cotto should be a great one though... No ones taking anything away from anyone !!! Shane fought a great fight and executed perfectly.

lol yup b/c that left was tearing tony ass up Mosley was throwing with serious bad intentions. Say what you want about tony getting ko'd out but he still has a great chin, because for 9 rounds he was getting leveled with that right hand and was smiling.....he's a nut.

thankfully he didn't throw the left hook then ah? lol yup b/c that left was tearing tony ass up

the real difference was shane never mixed in that underrated left hook when he fought cotto. he just flickered the jab then threw the right. i remember that fight b/c i was screaming at the tv throw the ****ing left hook. thankfully he didn't throw the left hook then ah?

actually, if you go and rewatch the cotto mosley fight, cotto got hit by like 100 of those right hands. yet never touched the canvas. loaded gloves for the cotto fight? check! the real difference was shane never mixed in that underrated left hook when he fought cotto. he just flickered the jab then threw the right. i remember that fight b/c i was screaming at the tv throw the ****ing left hook.

Great post man. Not to take anything away from shane but the war Margarito had with Cotto although he came out victorious was a brutal one and no one really knows the affect that it had on him. thats a factor too, but you have to give majority of the props to mosley and his team for the gameplan and the execution of it

Wow, all I can say is wow. I never saw this coming, I knew it was going to be a tough fight but I never thought we would see the destruction of Margarito. The biggest difference in Mosley's approach and Cotto's approach was Mosley's physical strength. He was able to keep Marg off of him and fight a dirty fight inside. Great game plan by him and Richardson and great execution. I personally like Mosley, think he's a class act and nobody deserves this more than him. Unbelievable for a man at 37 to pick apart a 30 year old beast like Margarito. I will say this and it's nowhere near an excuse but Marg didn't look hungry, he looked like a completely different fighter when he was in vs Cotto. Maybe the limelight got to his head the past few months, who knows. Styles make fights and that's why boxing is so great. I know some people will claim they knew this was going to happen all along but it was definitely an upset and shocker. I thought Mosely could win but not ko him. AS far as the illegal stuff in Margs gloves, if it's true, then thats a shame. Although it doesn't mean he tried it with Cotto but I can understand why there would be questions. Props once again to Mosley and his fans, great all time performance. I don't know if Marg is done but something didn't look right about him and he has taken a lot of punishment throughout his career. Great post man. Not to take anything away from shane but the war Margarito had with Cotto although he came out victorious was a brutal one and no one really knows the affect that it had on him.

More peeps should just congratulate SSM instead of shittin on Marg or somehow bringin Mr boat buyer's name into it.

My heads in the clear. So, again, explain to me why nobody else has ever caught and why Richardson has a history of doing this? I'll tell you why, because its most likely never been done before, and Richardson plays mental games as good as anyone. One word: Denial

IF HE WAS going to used against a underdog past is prime old mosley (and not a big puncher!) why u think he would not used against the top dog cotto number one welter undefeated on is prime

you're the mexican version of sherlock holmes. richardson's history is 2 - tito and margarito - nothing found with tito - substantiated with margarito. so your explanation of the former is a waste of text. Oh, so you've seen the evidence and were there for an investigation? Talk about a waste of text. I see last July still has you heated.

Ultimately there's no way to prove that he did use them in the Cotto fight unless he admits it but that probably will never happen. But where there's smoke threre's fire and I'm sure these are not just allegations there is something there. And if tried to use them against Mosley,you know for sure he used them against Cotto. Remember that you're not a cheater until you get caught. Like I said, if he used them then he should be suspended or even worse. I personally think this is the end for Marg, he was a big overachiever, he came from nothing and fought his way to the top the hard way. I still respect the man because this is the first time he was caught with illegal handwraps and we don't know if they were used in previous fights. Im not making excuses for the man, if he's guilty he's guilty. I just love this division, wetlerweights are back and anything can happen with the top guys. Damn Mosley is a beast....
