i'm still on the fence about marg using plaster during the cotto fight or even him being aware of his wraps. until there's a confession or hard evidence, i'm giving marg the benefit of the doubt.

What a sad story, im defo gonna watch this...R.I.P Also...i have been thinking more about the marg vs cotto fight....and i do think cotto has some stamina problems...because he was backing away the same with clottey as he did with marg.... But i also think marg might of had the plaster against cotto....i mean, cotto had beat mosley previously...why would he now get the plaster for mosley...when he just took on the better fighter without it? doesnt really make sense....also cottos face was smashed completely...the blood pourin from it n the swelling was so bad, when i saw collins face in that vid i straight away thought of cottos.... I dunno tho, i guess we will never know for sure....we also dont know weather marg really knew about it or not....ud guess he did tho....i think thats the only reason he wasnt banned for life...n i agree with everything cuauhtemoc has said, you cant just say "he did have them in the cotto fight" how the hell would we know? But yes its LIKELY he did...

never heard about this, defintely going to check i tout

You ****ing bastard you should be burned alive, you could have killed that man that night. You bring shame not only to puertoricans but to human race as a whole, please get beheaded and stop wasting our oxygen.

I've always said, don't have a problem with you driving drunk and killing yourself, just don't kill others.

My goodness this an awful story. The kid was an up and coming rising star.....the guy he fought Resto only had 8 knockouts in 30 something fights...he was A LIGHT PUNCHER. Collins had permanent blured vision...at 22..then he killed himself..he was 22 couldnt see and boxing was all he had and it was over..... A fukking shame man. Panama Lewis should be killed...seriously. People take this "cheating" in boxing lightly. It's not steroids where we don't care if you use steroids and hurt yourself. In boxing you as a cheater can kill someone or blind them. That is why i cannot blame some for wanting to ban margarito for life. It's like drunk driving....you driving drunk can kill someone and you should be allowed to keep driving? Take away your license for 1-3 yrs. TICKET FOR DUI? Stupid !

I got it, I was making the point of how stupid of a comparison it was....dumbass. Fact is, YOU DON"T KNOW IF HE USED LOADED GLOVES VS COTTO - FACT as much as you want to make it seem that only an idiot would think otherwise, you don't know and neither do I. People that assume to know or think they know are fools. I'm not defending the guy, I don't care if he ever comes back I have said that a million times, I just can't say for sure because I wasn't there. What part of that don't you understand??? Quieres que te lo explique en Espanol? Exactly, i was not there also, just giving my opinion on if i think he cheated vs cotto. I might be 150% wrong. No tienes que explicar en espanol, gracias.

I have done things in my past......longgggggggggggggggggg time ago that will always label me that....nothing to do with children or wife or sexual...but i reget it, got help and i'm still recovering from it. I will ALWAYS be labeled with what i did (to myself) and i have to live with it. Am I or margarito perfect? HELL NO ! Does he deserve another chance? yes ! We give baseball, basketball, football stars second, third chances. As a Cotto fan, hope margarito comes back and cotto fights him....REALLY want that more than pacman.

Why do you keep posting, if you don't care. Because it's people that make blanket statements as the truth that is rediculous and I'm pointing it out. People need to understand the difference between fact and opinion.

SOOOOO stupid...How am i comparing the two? Let's start all over for the slow ones out there. Forget i mentioned OJ, since you did not get what i was saying and replace it with Tupac.....Some idiots out there believe tupac is alive as other idiots believe Margarito first started cheating at mosley fight. Understand now? I got it, I was making the point of how stupid of a comparison it was....dumbass.

I understand fully and was trying to show how a rediculous stament thinking you know what happend is.... As much as you want to believe it, WE DON'T KNOW FOR SURE. I'm not defending Marg I just can't make assumptions over something I don't know for sure because I wasn't there. Your making it seem like you were there, you saw the wraps and saw the cheating. Fuk Margarito, I'm not defending him and could care less if he comes back or not. I just can't condemn a man if I don't know. Why do you keep posting, if you don't care.

Don't know ! Is he a cheater? YES ! Will he cheat in his night fight? DON'T KNOW

Yeah he cheated in the past but is clean now and winning so what dont tell me you have never cheated we are all cheaters regardless of the situation. you logic fails my friend so then we should all assume Mosley cheated cause he was doping again come on dude Once an addict is also labeled an addict. You can be clean for last 5 yrs but you are always labeled an addict. If you once abused your wife, you will always be labeled that, even if you are good. Cotto will always be labeled as a quitter, it is his job to show that he is not that anymore.

And how does that diminish the cheat? I mean ok, Cotto's camp should've checked the wrappings, but you can't say that as long as your not caught, it's ok to cheat. That being said, I agree with cuauhtemoc that we can't just assume Margarito cheated against Cotto. I personnaly think he did, but without any proof, he still has the benefit of the doubt. Good post bro I wasnt trying to justify the cheating of diminsih anything. I was jsut pointing out the fact that the wraps should always be checked regardless and the cotto camp did not check them

How would i feel? That the cheater is winning fights. He might end up beating cotto again, beating mosley, pacman, etc but he is still labeled a cheater. Yeah he cheated in the past but is clean now and winning so what dont tell me you have never cheated we are all cheaters regardless of the situation. you logic fails my friend so then we should all assume Mosley cheated cause he was doping again come on dude

There are IDIOTS out there that still think margarito did not cheat. There are idiots out there that still think margarito ONLY cheated 1 time. There are idiots out there that think bIGGIE SMALLS, TUPAC AND BRUCE LEE ARE STILL ALIVE ! Common Sense PEOPLE !

Yea that made all the sense in the world. Let's compare a boxer who allegedly loaded his gloves to a man accused of double murder that went to trial, won the criminal suite but lost the civil and was forced to pay 30 million in restitution. Genuis......... SOOOOO stupid...How am i comparing the two? Let's start all over for the slow ones out there.

True. You know there are people out there that still believe OJ was inncocent or that bruce lee is still alive. Yea that made all the sense in the world. Let's compare a boxer who allegedly loaded his gloves to a man accused of double murder that went to trial, won the criminal suite but lost the civil and was forced to pay 30 million in restitution. Genuis.........
