If you are still living with your grandmother, I probably have kids older than you unless you are an old man who still lives with his grandmother.

I was making casual conversation with a friend and began telling her about the Margarito hand wrap incident. As I laid it all out, I told her about Kermit Cintron who was a huge puncher and got his azz kicked easy by Tony Margarito and that the only two loses were at the hands of Margarito. I then told her that undefeated Miguel Cotto had also faced Margarito and that he ended up destroying Cotto in the final rounds and then I told her that just before Margaritos fight against Shane Mosley, Tony was caught with some illegal objects under his hand wraps and was forced to re-wrap his hands. The wraps and the objects were confiscated immediately. Those present said it was a brick like substance such as plaster and it's what doctors use to make casts. Tony came to the ring and got totally destroyed by a 37 year old fighter who had no business beating Tony. All she said was it sounds to me like Tony cheated against Cintron and Cotto for sure.
Even someone who does not watch boxing can understand this, why can't the **** heads who do follow the sport see it?
Lets be perfectly honest here, I know you guys are loving the fact that Marg got beat and beat bad. That's cool, and if he cheated he deserves what he gets, Im not defending him but let's get one thing straight.....
A major reason Margarito beat Cintron and Cotto was because he has a chin of iron. Even in the Mosley fight, the avg fighter would have been KO'd a long time earlier. Unless he managed to wrap his chin with plaster of paris, lets not get things out of control......
If he's a cheater, fine, I will be the first to condem him but he took everything Cotto and Cintron gave out and more.

Originally posted by americanme View PostI told the story too to someone when it was discussed on ESPN.. they agree they Richardson was just trying to get in to Margo's head instead of ( in my co worker words ) " warming up and focusing on the fight ".... I told them that the commision had NO PROBLEM w/ the wrap originally , that Richardson has done this in the past and MARGARITO's camp claims they didnt nothng wrong and are confident the Cali Criminal Dept will prove that..
