I missed it but (user 2501) said They pretty much asked him about his questional defense. They showed clips of his previous fights when he's been down and they asked if he's worried about the holes in his defense, if its something they have been working on.
Yuri stated that when being as offensive as he is, he's bound to get caught, but defense is a priority they are working on
They talked about the difficulty of facing southpaws since his next opponent will be one. Yuri agreed stating southpaws are the most difficult to handle because of the positioning and extra work needed to attack a southpaw vs a conventional fighter.
They also asked him about Margarito-Gate. They asked Yuri what goes down in the locker room when hands are being wrapped and Yuri explained that a representative from the respective commision is present supervising the wrapping as well as someone from the opposing corner. So if Margarito had been using illegal wraps before, it would be hard for his camp to have gotten away with it. He also stated that you CAN certainly tell the difference when something out of the ordinary is being put on your fists/hands in wrapping, that you can definitely tell if something hard is being wrapped or inserted into your wraps. -
behind the scenes?
well obviously if the csac signed off on margaritos gloves , you can get away with a lot more than he thinks . if it wasn't for mosley's trainer margarito was ****ed and loaded with a deadly weaponComment

I dont think Gamboa was defending the Margo camp. I think he was saying that if they had been loading gloves for previous fights, the commission and opposing cornermen have been missing the illegalities since there is always a commission rep and opposing cornerman present while wrapping.Comment
