      This is absurd. So any boxer who has won fights, then been caught cheating, failed drug tests...whatever, that all his previous big wins should have asterisks by them? This is laughable, really. I mean, the precendence it sets would be staggering... should I start making a list of losses that should have asterisks by them in the past, because of a fighter having been caught cheating later on? I'll start now and still be making the list this time tomorrow...

        IMO i think theres a BIG difference between preformance enhancing drugss and turning your hands into bricks.


        that being said i do believe he cheated against Cotto... just my opinion.

        i doubt they will ever find out the truth about his fight wit Cotto but a rematch with Marg w/out the plaster should be an interesting fight and would turn into a more interesting debate IF Cotto should win that fight

          Make sure you dont included those who came up positive for THC because you can't compare some one partying to loading your wraps with plaster.

          I will be waiting for your list and please include those fighters who were caught LOADING THEIR wraps with plaster.
          TY.

            1. Guys did not check the wraps (unproffessional)
            2. Got his nose broke round 2 before plaster had harden now i have never had my nose broke or boxed but i imagine this must have quite a big effect.
            3. Never worked the body
            4. Had a terrible Game plan
            5. Got hit alot from rounds 1 to 11
            6. Power shots didn't hurt Margaritto

            So while i think it probably doesn't deserve an * it will hopefully boost his confidence, because plaster or not it was a very poor display on the night by him. Actually i think serious injury (if proven) losses should have more * to them, like that sick headbutt holt did to Torres..
            good post. but I think the * is deserved. that said, there is no proof that margo attempted to cheated against anyone but mosley.

              You will never ever see Margarito or Camp admit to any past cheating. To do so would render them financially ruined by getting sued by Cotto and other past opponents who lost to him.

              Cotto could potentially sue him for millions and win, get Tony charged with assault & battery etc.

              You will never see anyone on Margarito's camp admit to anything, even if getting their licenses back was in the balance for coming clean.

              It will never happen.

                F*** Margarito man! I had mad respect for him, especially after the Cotto fight. I even gave him the benefit of the doubt when the rumors start to appear of him using plaster. But now that everything is confirmed. I want that piece of s*** to suffer the disgrace he has caused all the mexicans. Motherf***ing cheater!

                    Margarito has no regards for PR people's feelings.
