Antonio Margarito's Legacy on The Line, Says Steward

[El Dominicano]

There is a difference between using legal hand wraps but maybe putting too much, or wrapping it different as opposed to using an illegal hardening plaster like substance that has absolutely no reason to even be near his wraps.

Well said man. Alot of people don't understand this. They dumb for tryin to to bring Tito down to Margarito's level or even Roy

[Doc Holliday]

Because unlike Margacheato his wraps were clean no plaster, no inserts just gauze and tape. Just because someone didn't like they way they were wrapping his hands, doesn't make them illegal.

That's not what Nasim Richardson is saying.

This is ******

All he has to do is say he did not know that his team was using that substance and then he'll get another title shot just like mosley did...

So the Nevada commision is trying to protect it's ass, what did you expect to here from them, "we might have made a mistake that could have cost a man his life".

See here:

The Hopkins camp, including trainer Bouie Fisher, noticed that Trinidad's hands were wrapped in an illegal fashion, and threatened to cancel the fight unless they were wrapped correctly. The Chief Inspector of the NYSAC forced Trinidad's camp to re-wrap his hands in a legal fashion.

Boxing trainers and opponents of Trinidad later voiced their opinions that the illegal hand wrapping of Trinidad's hands gave the boxer the equivalent of brass knuckles, as illegal wrappings, especially when dipped into water and allowed to dry, became rock hard. These boxers and Hopkins' trainer also stated that this was the real reason Tito's famous left hook was so effective

*** Margarito and his fans, they have to cheat to beat a true Puerto Rican warrior like Miguel Cotto.

Why so much hatred I'm a Margarito fan but if the plaster wraps are true then yes **** him, but why his fans.
And what do you mean "they"?
Since there is no proof that Margarito used them in the Cotto fight, you can't make claims like this.
Face it Cotto lost, deal with

So far all we have are accusations by ****m Richardson, (The same accusations he brought against the Trinidad camp in 2001 before the Hopkins fight), and some confiscated pieces of gauze. Apparently that's all people need to assume Margarito has been boxing with loaded gloves all along and call his entire career under question.

Trinidad kept fighting after getting the same accusations, why all the hate for Margarito?

I think Trinidad's career should be under question also. Im mexican, im not like some Puerto Ricans around here that are gonna **** on Margarito and make excuses for Tito. I feel Tito had been cheating even before the Hopkins fight and I feel Marg. was cheating before the Mosely fight. I dont see why he would feel the need to cheat against a seemingly over the hill, shell of his former self fighter. But wouldn't feel the need to cheat against a top of his game, undefeated, young, #1 welter weight in the world. I dont buy it, and the outcome of both fights doesn't help his case either.

Richard Schaerfer is an idiot...he should stick to his job and let the experts do their job. IF Margarito loaded his gloves then he should be punished but this idiot shoud keep his mouth shut until then.
