“Fighting Words” – Punishing Margarito: A Year or A Career?

[F l i c k e r]

Ban that sorry ass

Look at Cotto it almost happened to Mosley.

No. That is what happens when you decide to block punches with your face. It happened with Marciano and it happened with Cotto.

a year. this is his livelyhood a life ban is too harsh.

At least you realise it. He only attempted to cheat. Its like saying, "I thought about stealing but put it back" but you still go to prison.

It's over for The Tijuana Tortilla Chip.

No it's like saying I tried to set off a bomb in a crowded shopping centre but I was caught before I could set the bomb off, but I still went to prison.

Has everyone forgotten how Mosley went into that fight under investigation of using steroids and agents to numb his hands....which in my eyes is as bad!!! cheating is cheating...both showed no regards for the rules,so if you ban one and make that example you have to ban the other! There is no middle ground in cheating!

Also what about the officials...if capetillo had never been pulled up on it before,how did he know it wasnt allowed? if thats all hes ever done and b4 every fight 3 officials have checked the wraps (which they were supposed to do) and said they were fine...thats an area that needs adrressing big time!!

No the big difference is he didn't put it back, he got caught.

too bad we can't prove that margarito used plaster against cotto

I don't need prove. Common sense works for me.

[krispy kreme]

Actually I know what your saying.

Thing is Mosley fault wasnt as bad as Margarito.

He never tested `positive nor got accused of whatever.He admited that he he took the substance then, pass a poli test and went on with big wins.

Thats the difference.

I mean Margarito gets cought, lies and act like nothing is happening.

I agree with what you said. But can you see, what im tryng to say!!!!

True story. Shane isn't completely innocent, but his situation is more excusable because Margarito could seriously hurt people with those wraps.

One Year is enough...
