    It takes a lot to change the opinions of boxing fans…perhaps one of the most vocal, harsh and unforgiving in all of sports

        Winning cures everything, and he's definitely in a weightclass where this story is long forgotten if he pulls off some victories over some of the fighters there.

          Say he comes clean.. and admits if there were other times..

          Takes his suspension like man... trains real hard.. learns how to box.. and can win without plaster.. yeah i will give him back some respect..

          But who is gonna want to get in the ring with him???

          Losing to him NOW would be even worse.. because now you would NOT be able to say he cheated.. since I am positive if he ever boxes again his hands are going to very closely monitored..

            He can. It all depends on the fans that are willing to accept him and give him credit again. IMHO

              It takes more than changing trainer and winning a couple of fights to change my "general" opinion of Margarito. He should start by not playing safe and telling the truth(not a spin) of what happen, I just dont buy the "i didnt know the difference" excuse, sounds like a prime Clinton to me.

                Hes done as far as im concern. Why forgive...There are thousands of young talented fighters waiting and wishing to get to where he was in boxing, before he pissed it away. I dont feel sorry for him. no respect from me....ever!!

                    Mosley took steroids, his argument is shallow anyhow.
