Comments Thread For: Shane Mosley: "Margarito Should Get His License"

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

There has been a lot of debate over Antonio Margarito receiving a license to box on the pay-per-view undercard to Manny Pacquiao-Joshua Clottey at Cowboys Stadium on March 13. Margarito's license was revoked last February by the California State Athletic Commission. Prior to his fight with Shane Mosley last January 24, a plaster-like substance was found in Margarito's handwraps. Mosley went on to knock Margarito out. Instead of appearing before the CSAC, Margarito had applied with the Texas commission. [Click Here To Read More]

Mosley was given steriods and he wasnt aware, Margarito was given illegal handwraps for padding and he wasnt aware. Mosley has a good heart for standing up and letting everyone know it wasnt Tonys fault.

Mosley said Margrito knew what his trainer was putting on his hands and was influenced by him.

So i say bull****.

If Margrito knew, and wanted to fight with illegal wraps, he knew he could potentially kill his opponent.

He should be banned for life, but he wont.

I think its a huge difference between someone taking steroids unknowingly compared to someone getting their hands wrapped illegally.If Shane put his trust in his nutritionist,then maybe he didn't know what he was taking.On the other hand, Margarito is sitting right there watching his hands get wrapped.He knew his hands were loaded.That's how he beat Citron and Cotto.That's why he was so mentally out of the fight with Shane.Without the plaster, his confidence was gone.Go back and look at his face in the fight.He was discouraged from the beginning bell.

What else do you expect Mosley to say. If he comes out and condemns Margorito and calls for a lifetime ban on him, then he would be essentially calling down the same fate on himself as he as cheated too when he was using HGH. Please spare me the B.S though that both Mosley and Margorito were innocent and didn't know that they were cheating. No way in hell Margorito didn't know that something illegal was going on with his wraps or that they were altered. Mosley knew exactly what he was taking when he was using HGH. Their is a reason he was on the Balco schedule.

I think marg should get his license back, he served his suspension.

Now if marg used the plaster for a fight(and been proven, not just accusations) then he deserves a lifetime ban, but there is no proof

If a man attempts to murder you and gets busted before he does it, should he not be severely punished?

from his statement, mosley said marg knew he was putting those padding, but that it was his trainer that influenced him to use the thing. I believe he certainly used it after the paul williams fight cuz since after that fight, margarito's punching power was like insane, but his opponents head weren't snapping unlike how a punch from a truly hard punch is supposed to snap.

past is the past, he beat the **** out of margs fair and square with no excuses.I wonder what ssm would have said though IF and that would have been a big if, if ssm would have lost against margs and later after his fight found out the he had tried to use the same padding on the next opponent like cintron and cotto did, would he still give the same statement or go the opposite route and sing a diff tune.. But I guess it's a mute point since he won.

Yes your right, but I don't see your point I hope your not trying to say margarito was trying to murder mosley lmaooo...they were difference wraps for better protection that tony uses in the gym but his trainer forgot to get anew pair of wraps and ended up bringing the old ones and he didn't know they were illegal that's what the whole issue was...
