GRAPEVINE, Texas – “Disgusting” is often a word that comes to mind when thinking of controversial boxer Antonio Margarito. And Margarito, along with trainer Robert Garcia and training partner Brandon Rios, a lightweight contender, didn’t fail to disgust the other day.
A video surfaced on the Internet – first at Fanhouse.com, then later on other sites after Fanhouse apparently pulled it – of Margarito, Garcia and Rios making fun of Freddie Roach’s Parkinson’s disease symptoms.
...
They mocked Roach’s tremors, laughing like classless juveniles at the plight of a man who is fighting a debilitating, life-altering disease. Margarito held his arms in front of him and shook them, mocking Roach. And then Garcia pointed to Rios, whose held was tilted forward to the left and was shaking and said, “Hey, there’s Freddie Roach.”
It was a lowlife move – one that was particularly surprising coming from Garcia, who has had an exemplary career and has always been highly regarded as a fighter, a trainer and a human being.
...
It’s disgusting, but that’s par for the course these days with Margarito.
You can’t expect a dog to have table manners and, apparently, you can’t expect Margarito to act with class.

Edit: here's the video, you be the judge...(fwd to 2:00)
I don't see the problem here, all the **** talking that Roach and company does you mean to tell me he should be exempt from any himself. Wheres the outrage when Arum called MMA fighters a bunch of skin heads and homosexuals? Spare me this bias media report. All is fair in war and its not like Roach is this classy quiet old man being picked on. He starts most of the **** talking and can't take it when it gets flung back in his face.
That is just disgusting. Parkinson's is a horrible, debilitating disease. Look at Muhammad Ali. You can not like Roach or whatever, but to stoop that low is reprehensible. I just feel bad for Roach when he has to see this trash. First making fun of the plaster, now this? It's awful, and it's confirmed how I feel about that piece of garbage Margarito. I'm surprised Garcia would let any of that fly. I hope Pacquiao puts a world class beat down on this scumbag and Margarito's never gets a big fight after this one.
People are such *******. Comedians poke fun at retards, retardation and just about everything and people laugh through the nose.
Roach isn't immune to criticism with his big mouth. He's had it coming for a long time.
All's fair in love AND war.
Plus that shit was hilarious.
Iole can get fucked.
Don't use my people as an example. We do it for the art of good humor.
if it was mayweather it be on the news obama would have something to say. everyone on NSB and internet all the trainers everyone would have something to say. they prob hang floyd at superbowl halftime show
you are correct sir.
I don't care about their jokes, but I do care about Margarito using illegal handwraps.
The fact that he shows absolutely zero remorse and continues to act the way he does just further reveals his character.
This is the last time i ever watch margarito. I would boycott this fight, but pacmans on it.
Good post...i would have said, I feel their "jokes" about the plaster and Freddie's parkinsons are showing this camp to reveal a low sense of character, now that margo is "in the clear" having his license "bought" back and a huge payday locked in, the arrogance and disrespect are quite obvious.
I won't be buying this PPV.
Margarito talks like, behaves like, and looks like a marten. I wouldn't trust him for a second.
Having fun mocking a guy with serious illness, as classless as it can be.
I guess he prefers low-life over half-life.
Imagine if this was Mayweather lol!!!
Mayweather would never do something like that to Roach because Roach likes Floyd and he's the only Mayweather Roach likes and respects. Mayweather has a lot of respect for Roach. Floyd won't disrespect Roach like he has disrespected other trainers, fighters, and promoters because he has a lot of respect for Roach.
He even calls Roach Mr. Freddie Roach.
Calling someone a murdrerer because thye must have known they had plaster on their hands does not justify making fun of a brain disease.
Calling Pac a drug cheat would be the closest thing to a justifiable response.
Some people here dont understand when u make fun of a disease, u are making fun of everyone who has it.
Thier just haveing fun.... this boxing!!! sh!t talking is part of the game. Please leave boxingscene if you make a bigger deal of what they say than what they do in the ring. Manny is probably heated though.
Same way you have your hands full trying to defend Pacquiao...:boxing: No doubt.
nah my hands are just half-full...can't do the kind of nuthugging that you do:D
This shouldn't suprise you. This is a guy who jokes about his loaded glove situation. So why stop there. Maybe roach, khan and pac should make a youtube video of a guy getting murdered in front of a taco bell with a name chain that reads. Antonio Margaritos Brother. How about that
When Roach apologizes for calling Margarito an attempted murderer and that he should be in prison for life, then Tony should apologize.
They better not apologize, **** that.
roach is not the only one who has parkinson's...there are a lot of people out there who suffers the same disease. don't you want them to apologize to those people?
Why the fvck is the world so damn sensitive? You got grown people b!tching and moaning about enacting fvcking bullying laws. How about those people and kids complaining learn how to fvcking stand up for themselves.
Too much of the world is permanently on the fvcking rag!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can careless what Tony and his team did. What I am having a problem with is all the apologies. Fvck that "I'm sorry" sh!t you said how you feel and fvck who has a problem with it. PBF should not have apologized for the UStream video, Roach should not apologize for anything he has said or done and neither should Margarito apologize for the video.
A person should stand by how they feel and not let public backlash force them to make a public apology they don't mean.
I have more respect for a racist man who will tell me he doesn't like my black a$$ to my face over a racist man who will smile in my face and call me n!gger behind my back.
