      The fact of the matter is that Margarito was not cleared of anything. The NSAC just decided that it wasn't going to waste its time and taxpayers dollars investigating something that, even if it were true, wasn't going to be proven. So, the neutral position is neither required nor really definable.
      Sorry but you don't need to be a prosecutor to know this basic logic. You don't know something unless it's proven. The benefit of the doubt should always be given to the accused hence, innocent until proven guilty. We can go on all day about this but without evidence, it's simply irrelevant...however, if you provide some evidence then I'll reconsider this point. Apart from that, he can be guilty and he not be guilty. Evidence would solve this problem...

        Did you ever think that maybe, just maybe ****m Richardson is just a little more astute and perceptive than your average run of the mill cornerman and that was the reason why he'd caught three violations in the last 15 years whereas many cornermen go their whole career without catching any violations? Put that in your pipe and smoke it...
        they were as valid as having your trunks up too high... yeah they are too high but what ev...valid as hopkins head buttung and clinching and hitting on the hip, but what ev,, know what it does to a fighers focus having to re wrap three times before a figh?, with everyone running n and out the room, when he should be focusing on the fight and warming up?

        Please..

        when the gauze test comes back w/no plaster in it then you'll what's up

            Theres a very easy way to find out if he had loaded gloves in the Cotto fight....Cotto vs Margs 2....if Cotto doesnt all of a sudden start to look like Sloth from the goonies by the 10th then you know Margs is a scumbag cheater after that fight he should only get matches opening up for Donkey shows in Tiajuana

              Margarito landed like 50 punches on Cotto in ONE round in that fight..

              Shane kept Margo to about 50-60 thrown a round..by clinching and backing him up.

              If you get hit 50 times in a round you are gonna look like that.

                I swear I'm not hating on him. I'm saying that because there is always a possibility that they didn't get caught. Very easily Mosley's camp could of just accepted that Margarito's wraps were already done.
                I'm not saying that he cheated when he fought Cotto. I said I hope he didn't!

                    Of course the Nevada state athletic commission is going to deny any negligence after this. I wouldn't directly accuse them of simply missing any illegal tactics because no one will ever be able to say this far after the event, but it's an obvious prophylactic step to take and doesn't really prove or disprove anything. The CSAC alone will take the fall.

                      I may not be a smart person who has a lot of basic logic, but I know that I've seen people commit crimes that they never got convicted of. I've had friends who've killed people, stabbed people, robbed people, etc. and didn't get convicted for what they did. I'm not complaining about it...I'm just saying that it's something that happens. I'm not just talking about heresay either. I know what happened in some cases.

                      Now, what you consider to be a lack of evidence, well I'm just going to say if HBO reported it then I'll believe it because HBO has a history of preferring to cover that sort of thing up rather than report on circumstantial evidence. If the HBO reported that plaster like substance was confiscated then you know what I'm going to believe? That plaster-like substance was confiscated. Do you know why? Because Bob Arum has enough money to pay off the people making $35-40,000 a year who're doing the investigation.
