Mosley thought the punishment for Margarito was a little harsh

[xfiles]

"I just think that Capetillo was the one wrapping his hands and knew what was going on," Mosley told ESPN.com. "He should be penalized. Margarito probably should not be as penalized. Capetillo was the one who did it. Margarito is the fighter and he just probably put his hands out there to be wrapped and ready to fight. Capetillo went to the rules meeting. He's the one who knew how to wrap the hands. He took it upon himself to make the wrap different. It should be mainly Capetillo who gets the brunt of everything."


It seems like the fighter that would have been the most potentially affected by the handwrap fiasco doesn't blame Margarito. It's funny how everyone else that is several levels removed from the issue at hand prefers to put the blame on him instead of his trainer. Arum plans to appeal the decision and make fights in Mexico for Margarito in the meantime.

Mosley must be punched out, What does he think Margacheato wouldn't notice the ****ing bricks in his hands. It was going to be a 1st round surprise.

mosley is saying that because in his case he stated he didnt know about the steroids. so it would be hypocrite of him saying that he knew when he is claiming that he didnt know about the steroid

Mosley has zero cred when it comes to this matter

Lets not blind ourselves now. Lets not be that ******. Lets not forget that this is coming from a fighter who is using the same, lame, "I didn't know" defense for his steroid use. It wouldn't make sense for him to say that Marg had to know what was going on, when shane himself is using the same excuse. As far as the punishment, he knows he can just as easily be on the same boat. I know that as his fan you want to justify what Marg did. But this......no.

Exactly.

What do people expect Mosley to say?

"No, Margarito really knew what his trainer was doing".

It doesn't look good for a guy who claims to unknowingly have taken steroids and EPO to say another fighter should've known. Of course Mosley is going to act like a fighter can be duped into doing something dirty.
