Here is a statement from Carson Jones’ manager, Bobby Dobbs:
Ok, I can now confirm to you that Carson Jones fight with Margarito has been cancelled due to Margarito being unable to obtain a license in Texas.
I want to point out that ‘Top Rank’, Margarito’s promoter assured me from day one that Margarito would be licensed and obviously they were confident enough to send me a contract so I could only take them at their word and proceed as though the fight is made. My job is not to worry about my fighters opponents getting licensed it was to negotiate the most favorable terms possible for Carson and to get him properly prepared. We turned down a Showtime spot to take this fight so obviously we are not happy with this turn of events.
But, Carson is only 23, he has won 13 of his last 14 fights and his future is bright. We will move on and begin looking for the next opportunity.

Give margarito his license back
just give Margarito his license back , put him against Cintron so he can do the same thing to him again and you Margarito haters can finally put the handwrap accusations to rest since Cotto wont fight Margarito again because he knows he'll get knocked the **** out again! look anyway you put it , if Margarito doesn't get his license back and fights again we'll never really know if he cheated!!! so lets bring Margarito back and find out the truth!!!
That bastard ain’t a real Mexican. We Mexicans do not call ****** to each other.
Yeah, and all Mexicans are macho, tough, and men of men, right.
Oh, except this guy:

Moral of the story: just because you and your friends don't do it, doesn't mean that there aren't other Mexicans out there that do.
I joke around with my friends and call myself (and others) a **** from time to time (you know, because I'm Hispanic). What's the harm in that?
Shame my ass! This guy should be banned for life for what he got caught trying to do.
Dude, chill, he's a bea..., I mean Mexican. It's like one black guy calling another the N word. He wasn't trying to be insulting.

There's still not a decision from the Texas commisioning about denying Margarito a license but the slow process tells me this fight might not happen, what a shame.

ITs like that? Didnt know we were throwing insults of that magnitude? Obviously he didnt get the license which he shouldnt have. But getting a little racist is un called for. I mean I think..
Maybe Im Trippin...then again this NSB...
