This should finally settle what I've been saying all along.

Margarito didn't have anything resembling PLASTER in his hands. The whole thing is over some knuckle pads (which are soft) that Nazeem is over exaggerating to make himself look like some sort of good samaritan.

If Tony keeps those on, his punches don't have any more pop than if not.

The only reason his license was taken was because they constitute an infraction under the current guidelines, but they aren't dangerous.

I'd like Kevin Iole and that scumbag Dan Rafael to take note and stop mentioning Margarito and plaster in the same sentence when talking about him.

Maxboxing and The Ring did the best reporting on this from the get go and they always said knuckle PADS, and not plaster.

But somehow HBO, ESPN and the rest of the idiot media keeps perpetuating the plaster myth.

I can't wait till Tony returns!!

I've never seen a hard PAD, have you? Those are used to protect the knuckle in the gym when hitting the bag etc.

Thats why they were in his gym bag. This whole thing is a non issue.

What were you reading? Richardson said knuckle pads in the interview. Its as clear as day in the last paragraph.

Show some class man, I didn't insult you.

It was an issue that why they had them taken out in the first place, That why they had his hands re-wrapped, Thats why he was ban for a year, Thats why his trainer was also suspended for a year.

Am a fan of Margarito(Not hardcore but a fan of his) and if he had soft pads in his knuckle then he would have got away with it.

No, because you can't have pads in your wraps. It constitutes an infraction by CSAC rules.

I suspect a lot of this was due to the fact that Capetillo and Margarito just didn't know they were illegal.

Honest, harmless mistake. The commission had to suspend him though, the issue was made into a huge deal by HBO and the boxing press.

Doing nothing wouldve made the CSAC look inept. It was a political move more than anything.
