Margarito knew he needed plaster to defeat Cotto

[Frighteous]

you can discuss this all you want, but its nothing more than speculation and opinion

its been beaten to death on these boards, im sure you've discussed it under a different account, closer to the actual time the fight took place

all this thread is is a way of saying "im a crybaby", hence the bottles...

but continue to speculate

This is really the only thread ive ever made that was even seemingly negative. What's sad about the whole thing is I actually like margarito before he cheated and even now I'll always watch his fights. If this thread is a way of saying I'm a crybaby, then putting veteran420 as your name is a way of me knowing how shallow you are because you think getting high is cool or something...talk about the topic. if you got something to say about the topic then feel free...otherwise kick rocks

if you "could" care less, then you obviously DO care about it... hence, being able to care less



just saying





on topic: this thread sucks

Idiots....how is it possible to use the same plaster 2X or more than once ???

Isn't plaster supposed to get hard when it dry's up?

[VERDUGO]

There still is no proof of it at all. Remember each commission checks hand wraps differently and I dont personally think he cheated at all but no doubt Cotto fans would want an excuse for the loss (not rubbing it in but just my opinion)

of course with him TRYING to use it against mosley it puts doubt in the mind.

WHat we need is margo vs cotto 2. now that will be an interesting fight

I agreeand i turned you green for that Shakira gif image .

There is no proof that he used wraps against Cotto...

Now, lets get to the bottom of this..

First off, Margo's style is all wrong for Cotto. I really wish Cotto fans would understand this. Margo would KO COtto if Cotto stands and trades. Cotto will also get beat down if he runs (he does not have the stamina to do so for 12 rounds). Stewart will not help either.

You cats act like plaster just did the whole job for Margo. I guess Cotto being hit more in that fight than he had in any other fight had nothing to do with it, right?

Now lets talk about the damge to Cotto's face. The uppercut is one of the most damaging punches in boxing. Do to the fact that most never see it coming, and the angle that it is delivered. Cotto got hit with like 78 uppercuts...Like 12 were in the second round...You know, the round were Cotto's nose got broke, and face started swelling. Oh wait!! It takes 7 or 8 rounds for the plaster to set!..... Cotto only suffered a cut in the later part of the fight. Funny how folks still to this day can't admit this.

Bottom line-

For anyone that looks at that fight with an unbiased eye, will see how Margo destoryed Cotto.

Head and body. Heart and mental.

Plaster did not play the factor that many will try and make you believe. Still there is no proof. Just an excuse for Cotto fans, and Margo haters.

Margo will crush Cotto again if they fight. Then what? Oh that's right, a Rican radio station will make up another lie about Margo being on roids.....

There is a photograph of Margarito with plaster, in pink rectangular sheets, on his handwraps at the Cotto fight.....I'd dig for it but I have to take a **** brb


also it's worth noting I'm not mexican or puerto rican

I think you mean it seems like the same pads confiscated from the Mosley fight (the wraps had a pink smudge just like in the pic)...now do I think he cheated? Yes....can I prove it...sadly no...but I lost any respect I had for him.

[LilGizmo562]

I feel Tony knew he would become a Mexican superstar if he beat Cotto who had established himself really well already in the WW division. Cotto was undefeated and looked liked a tank against the majority of his opponents. Tony didn't want to take any chance in this fight and used the plaster(maybe even before Cotto he's been using it...). Without the plaster I think Cotto wouldn't have wilted as easy and Tony would have been more discouraged similar to the way Mosley shut him out. When he lost the first 5 or 6 against Mosley, he knew he was in trouble. Yet...against Cotto there was zero discouragement. Hmmm?

Maybe cause...Shane hits harder than Cotto O.o and was doing what Cotto should have done, clinch...but its also obvious Mosley studied Tony well...and "without his wraps" he couldn't really do much.
