i just watched the last 3 rounds again to see where cotto was running . it looked more like he was outboxing ssm . shane was doing a lot more smothering and clinching instead of punching when he did get close . and cotto was landing the same overhand right in those rounds as he was doing the whole night . it was a close technical fight but cotto clearly had the better defense that night.edge: cotto
even though i feel cintron lost the fight due to being outboxed and outhustled, i felt the ref did not give him enough time to get up . as he points martinez to his corner he turns toward cintron and begins the count on 5 which i thought wass bullshit.
cambell fought a great fight against a tough fighter . it was close but definitly not a draw . there were two 10/8 rounds and from what i saw ali didnt do enough to overcome that .a lot of his punches were hitting glove and getting blocked by cambell in the earlier rounds.
behind the scenes?
well obviously if the csac signed off on margaritos gloves , you can get away with a lot more than he thinks . if it wasn't for mosley's trainer margarito was cocked and loaded with a deadly weapon
i started watching the fight late but i saw enuff to see cintron was getting whooped . cintron got caught with a huge punch, so huge he thought it was a head butt . he barely got up in time but his opponent had way more stamina in the end and shouldve got the win unless kermit won the earlier rounds which i didnt see
papa trinidad said he uses the same amount of tape and gauze as everybody else . its just in different manner . there was just a disagreement on how they should be wrapped . its not like he used inserts or any plaster like substance. when he rewrapped his hands shit wasnt fallen out all over the place .:peeright:
:bottle:quit crying cuz the verdict is in . how could margarito not be watching as his hands are being wrapped. was he blindfolded , reading a book , praying with eyes closed , busy picking his nose .what could he have possibly been doin while this is goin on .
:cop::cop: how could he have not known what was being place on his wraps.
is it possible to do anything otherwise while getting wrapped . besides picking his nose , reading a book , grabbing some ass , praying with his eyes closed.
theres nothing to do but sit there and watch your hands being wrapped. theres no credibility in his story nor his trainers let alone the csac and nsac.:smashfrea
come on , are u really gonna believe anything primer impacto has to say . wheres the blood on the pads witness's have seen. and then theres the substance yet to be determined. pad + water + plaster = lethal combo :cop:
one thing i would like to know is what else could margarito possibly have been doing while his hands were being wrapped ? picking his nose ,looking away, grabbin some ass , praying with his eyes closed .every boxer watches his hands get wrapped .duh:cop:
anything made 2 weeks prior to a fight has to be illegal . he probably made a cast of margaritos hand a long time ago , to be used over and over again :smashfrea
try again
the plaster of paris or whatever the substance was, started to fall off when his hands were being unwrapped. so you wouldn't have seen the illegal substance or the bloody , old and used before in who knows how many otherfights when he took his gloves off . :smashfrea
:cop:yeah he was being broken down .with bricks . im sure that pad was hard enuff in the first round. i doubt that blood on the pad came from tonys knuckles . it probably came from cottos face soaking thru the glove. be for real . im just making an honest assumption . chances are this guy didnt start doin this crap months ago . :smashfrea
nsac on top of these nuts
on top of everything just like the csac was right . both are losing a lot of credibility right now . like thats new in boxing . remember the csac signed off on these illegal wraps . i doubt that the nsac is any better than the csac .:cop:
foreman winning the title from moorer. and tyson getting whooped by douglas . i was a huge tyson fan and rooting for him at that time , but looking back it was one of my favorite fights .
Why don't we just make all of Tito Trinidad and Jack Dempsy's victories no contests while we're at it?:Flush:
come on now, this is plaster were talking about . theres no comparison . this is a crime were looking at .
