It's all too common nowadays, professional athletes in any sport where their legacy is tainted with cheating and scandals they will not man-up and admit accountability. Fans are left shaking their heads in disbelief.
    Good points. I've thought since this thing first unfolded that if one of his cornermen would've stepped forward and taken the blame and claimed that Marg had no knowledge of it that it would be the last we'd ever hear of it. That guy would just be suspended indefinitely and Marg would go on fighting like always.

    So since nobody is doing that it makes every one of them look like a ****ing twat trying to save their own ass.

      Margarito nothing without the plaster

      The first time Margarito fought without the plaster he got knocked the **** out.
      Case closed. Obviously he has been cheating all this time.

          Plaster or old padding, either outcome it's against the rules if i'm not mistaken.
          Whats left of Margs credability? Nothing, unless he is some how cleared in the investigation though it seems unlikely at this point. And as to the argument that in all elite sports there will be at least a small percentage of breaking or bending the rules in attempt to acheive an advantage is not valid here. There is a world of difference in enhancing yourself which of course is still wrong and attempting to destroy your opponent with loaded gloves. I cant beleive some are still salty and just trying to take the heat off Margo, all others caught will get theirs sooner or later but this is Margs time and he's about to get his.

              So did you not read the article?

              8th paragraph from the bottom. Plain as day. Might be a good idea to pay attention before calling people ****** because you are just looking worse as the thread goes on. Just sayin.

                  Were taking the information from the article.

                  Jesus, is anyone else hearing this?

                      fans should know that in sports of all level high school-professional the athletes will always try to give them self an advantage. Im sure there is a few people that have done this in boxing. The pats taped their opponents, a marathon runner didn't really run the whole marathon, shane used steriods, vargas used steroids, tito had illegal wraps, gsp is beign accused of vaselining his whole upper body in bjpenn fight, jordan used to push off, ewing used to hook you with the elbow, sprinters used steroids, chineese gymnast were too old etc etc etc! It's sports and people whatever they can to give them the best chance.
                      Example dlh vs floyd:

                      Dlh made floyd:
                      Agree to his money
                      fight on cinco de mayo
                      let dlh choose his gloves
                      let dlh choose the ring size
                      made floyd come up to 154
                      "all the wrongs in the world don't make a right"......and coming from a ****** doesn't justify it either.
                      I'm from the bronx, raised here all my life, been in group homes was raised poor and can go on and on.....but no cliche gives me the right to hurt or cheat anyone.
                      And using others as an example does bot take light off the seriousness of the individual at hand.
