NYSAC commissioner "We asked for medical papers back in September,we didn't get them"

okay, lets get one thing straight... why did they send this inexperience guy for something this serious??... are you kidding me, this guy got ripped into shreds, his constant studding just made me cringe on how bad it was... also, people need to get it through their heads, this is not the commissions fault, they did not turn in the paperwork!!!... bob arum dropped the ball hard Bob ain't spendin' top dollar on no top lawyers. He sent a rep with Margo the day of the commission hearing to get his license back, and couldn't get Margo out of his own mess.

Lol! Bob doesn't give a crap about Margarito's health. Just get in there, fight, and show him the money. "We'll talk about getting a new eye later."

What the f*ck is everyone on about? The guy representing Marg did a great job CONSIDERING the situation, there was no way he was going to say anything to convince them otherwise. Don't see how anyone can blame NYSAC ... do you know how f*cked they'll be if it turns out Margarito wasn't fit in the first place and was allowed to fight and he ends up losing an eye? They could very well lose their jobs so they need to cover their asses, I'd be mad too. Typical Arum, could care less about his fighters, hey its all about the Benjamins right? Still waiting on some posters on here who hang on Arum's nuts to say it was a smart business decision to completely ignore NYSAC's requests. So don't blame that lady, blame Arum - if this doesn't illustrate to you that Arum could care less about the numerous fans who spent $$ on tickets, airfares, hotels etc then I don't know what will.

There was another thread where people were bashing Melvina Lathan for her stance on the issue. My opinion is that she's not at fault for anything. If it is indeed true that the papers were submitted very late, the blame falls on Arum for getting fight fans' hopes high. The mess they're in is a result of Arum's irresponsibility in the first place. Arum knew exactly what he was doing, it's not like he forgot to take care of it, shit was done on purpose because he knows Margy's eye is dodgy.

Why didn't NYSAC says something publicly to warn the consumers? They did the opposite and promoted the fight.

The people who made purchased hotel/airfare reservations are going to be pissed...Margarito is taking time out of his training to go to the doctor...Bob's gonna' have to promote a venue in a matter of a week and a half, Cotto is not gonna' be happy with the change... I could see maybe, JUST MAYBE, Margarito failing the test (either on purpose or not), forcing Bob to change the venue, Cotto declining the fight altogether, and a a huge **** hitting the fan as it's posted on the net thereafter. Arum is a dick. Never mind whether or not Cotto is fighting in NYC or not, I feel sorry for those people who put down serious money for airfare/hotel reservations... Bob should've handled this a long time ago.

saw this on dan rafaels twitter page: danrafaelespn The NYSAC will hold a 3 pm ET hearing on Tuesday where it will either license or not license Margarito. #wherethehellwillthefightbe #boxing

According to Toprank's FB page Margarito cleared his 1st eye examine. How many eye examines does he need? Just one with a legit doctor appointed by the commission.

lmao, margarito's got that .you guys didn't notice the brib they took? How everything changed after the first class air fare request.NYSAC is just as crooked as NSAC. The first class is for the doctors not for the commissioners.

Given the fact that Bob Arum has a Harvard Law Degree, he hired one hell of a stuttering idiot to represent him and Margarito in this licensing case! LMAO. You would def. think Arum would have better representation here.
