[#1Assassin]

This will be Cotto fan's prophecy until they die. Pretty sad, but hey, at least I don't have to root for that bum.

He doesn't need to admit it. Him getting caught opened the door for all his wins to be questionable. Anyone who has ever loss to him can claim plaster. One time is too many. Margarito fans will never ever hear the end of it. I don't even take Margarito fans seriously when having boxing discussions if they try to say he didn't cheat. I have nothing against them but when they try to act like its some kind of concrete (no pun intended) fool proof arguement that he didn't cheat, I turn my ears off.

I don't know really, shouldn't be a free pass, Cotto was throwing and hitting big shots up untill the 11th when it got stopped. Wraps or no Wraps he fought terrible was getting hit alot by slow Marg, didn't go to the body and his power wasn't hurting. So no i wouldn't give him a free pass (wrap or no wrap) considering he pretty much fufilled the blueprint of how to lose to a pressure fighter like margo.

There is a question over it but he fought really badly he would probably agree if you ask him.

Well with high-level athletes, a slight edge can make all the difference. So if Margarito had an edge in the fight from the start, you can expect that it would have an effect on his performance.

That's another funny thing. Dudes act as if Margarito didn't have plaster the fight would have went the same way. Morons I tell you.

Not trying to discredit Floyd here, but when has Floyd ever faced a puncher like Margarito, loaded gloves or not. We dont know how Floyd would have faired against him just like we dont know if Margarito cheated in that fight. One can only assume he did, because it was the biggest fight of his life, but you know that already

Well Diego Corrales would probably come to mind. I'm not getting into this flame war but Diego was a big puncher and in his prime when Floyd fought him.

Those lads and the PR's here are just arsehurt fanboys with no proof whatsoever, so no we will not move on and no Margarito will not **** off. He will be back to make quitto give up on his knees again.

Without getting his energy sapped by virtue of Margo's cement hands, Cotto beats his ass in in the rematch.

Cant give Cotto a pass unless you give the rest of Marg's opponents a pass.

Cant give Cotto a pass unless you give the rest of Marg's opponents a pass.

All of them too then.

Margarito cheated, the end.

Nevada officals watched Tony's hands get wrapped.

They didn't see **** wrong.

Cotto got his little overrated ass stomped by a mofo slower than a Fedex truck.

Deal with it.
