    If the allegations are true?

    If the story we all heard about is true who will lose all respect for margarito?..I for one became a fan of his after he "out-willed" Cotto, but if these wraps really were plaster of paris I will lose all respect for that man. Honestly I should have suspected Cintron crying, the other dudes ear almost coming off, and Cottos face transforming drastically during the course of the last three rounds. Hey I'm all for innocent untill proven guilty but the whole wraps thing makes all the points make sense and Mosley was taking all his punches and walking right through them.

    But honestly what I'm still confused about is how did this man get KOed. I was truly amazed after him taking all of Cintron and Cottos punchers, which were by the way harder hitters than Mosley and then to see him take Mosleys shots only to be staggered and knocked out out of no where is really puzzling.....could it have been more mental than physical knowing there were no hand wraps and thus no chance of Mosley slowing down leading to Margarito giving up.....Anyways gettign back to the point who will lose all respect for Margarito, one of my favorite fighters, if this whole hand wraps debacle is proven to be true. I for one will.

    Margarito never had Shane going backwards. All of Shane's power punches had all of his weight behind them, while Cotto was almost always on the move, I think that had a lot to do with it. Shane just fought like a seasoned vet and found himself in the right position time and time again.

          This is why I hope they press the issue and investigate. Marg is one of my favorite fighters to watch and I don't wanna believe he's been doin dirt in the past. I won't believe it til it's proven. If it turns out he's been doin this in all his fights, I won't be reppin the guy no more.

              Some douche gave me red K because I thought something about Margarito didn't look right and thought his weight might have something to do with it. He disagreed. Kind of a ***** move but I don't really care.

                Me too, for me he was beatable but NEVER by K.O. I didn't see how much he was weighting for the fight, can someone tell me?

                  Officially he weighed 145.8

                  He came into the ring at 160 . Mosley also came into the ring at 160.

                    Let's say if it were true...In a way I would still be a fan but I wouldn't be anywhere near as supportive as I am now. It will be the same thing like I am with Mosley right now. I'm still a fan but I'm not really as supportive like I used to cause of the steroid issue.

                    I won't buy another PPV with him involved also if it were to be true.
