Antonio Margarito sends a message to all the haters

[cupcrazy01]

it wasn't Arum's choice it was Tony and his team. Arum could have coupled him on several Latin Fury shows but Margarito decided to adhere to the one year on he and his teams decision.



actually every time the rumors came out he and his team dismissed them and stated they would wait out whatever came

sounds like nothing he did or do will convince you that there was indeed remorse or resentment as to what happened



actually several times, while he says HE did no wrongdoing, he takes blame because in the end it is him who decides who is on his team.

but go ahead keep convincing yourself that he doesn't care





Texas backed off when they got an email from CSAC stating that they shouldn't allow Tony back until he faced CSAC.


care to bet that he fights in the US again

look in the end you think he doesn't care about what went down

cool

but knowing the man and his team for some years this couldn't be further from the truth

I honestly must have missed any apologies from Margarito on the incident. Did he make a public statement? Did he apologize to Mosley? Did he acknowledge the possibility of the same thing happening in the Cotto fight or previous fights? Not trying to be a jerk, I seriously don't know, the only comment I ever saw was what you said about him not knowing and throwing Capetillo under the bus.

Seriously, if he had no idea what was going on for Mosley, isn't it reasonable to assume it may have happened in previous fights and he never knew? I don't think he said, "I could tell something different was going on..."

If he wants to confront the incident, why doesn't he go back to California and appeal to the CSAC for his license to be restored? It's hard to believe he wouldn't like to fight there anymore, as it was very profitable for him to fight there vs. Williams & Mosley, two large crowds that were largely there to see him. Doing this (going back to the CSAC) would go a long away for me to give him the benefit of the doubt.

I have a hard time seeing any state issuing him a license without doing that, don't you?

Basketball??? that is the least sport in which we succeed since the average height for us is not that much. BASEBALL , ok. how bout that one.


AND also , I thought Houston was in the west.

And how many of them are gifted soccer players?? See what I mean?? Both sides have gifted athletes but saying who is better is like comparing them apples to oranges. My 2c.
You failed to miss the word LIVED on the east coast in my comment by the way.

Him not fighting was just as much, if not more, Arum convincing him to wait a calendar year so they can use the "We sat out a year in respect to the suspension," act. If he was truly respectful of the suspension, he wouldn't have let those rumors happen because he would have come out and said he wasn't fighting for at least a year. It's weird that he hasn't even apologized or taken responsibility for what happened, because even if he truly did not know, however unlikely that is, you would think he'd feel bad about it. Instead, he acts like the victim in all this.

They couldn't get him a license in Texas for the Pacquiao-Clottey undercard, and instead of trying to get a Texas or US license for his comeback fight they run back to Mexico to "keep him busy." Arum was so confident that he would fight on the Pac-Clottey undercard, but since news broke he wouldn't be able to they have done nothing to get him licensed in the US.

Now Arum is blustering on and on about Pacquiao-Margarito, but he better get Margarito licensed before he starts mapping that one out...who says it's a sure thing? The same people who said it was for the Pac-Clottey undercard. Oops.

WTF?

How do you stop me from starting a rumor about you?

You can't as you have no control over what I do just as Tony has no control over what people write about him.


lol @ stopping rumors from happening.

You have a better chance of catching a falling star.

Ummmm...he could have made a statement saying he wasn't going to fight for at least a year. That wouldn't have been difficult. Instead, for weeks we got the "Margarito may fight in Tijuana against Carlos Baldomir" rumor, and then others later in the year.

I see your point about rumors in general, but my example is pretty cut and dry.

Maragrito is a ****ing joke, I don't know how he was favored against Mosley. He has little boxing skills, no ring intelligence, he's an overrated garbage boxer.

[bdevils]

The guys a ***ing joke

Look, if Marg has proclaimed innocence the whole time, why would he all of a sudden admit his guilt and risk not ever fighting?

Forget the moral issue of this because we don't know what happened. Let's look at this from strictly a business point of view. He threw Capetillo under the bus because that was the only thing he could do to save his career and I wouldn't even doubt it that Capetillo and him agreed to this.

Let's imagine a hypothetical situation for a second. Let's say that Marg and Capetillo both knew that they were loading the gloves with some illegal substance. Both are at fault but let's say Capetillo loves Marg so much that he takes him aside and says, "Hey look kid, I will take the fault in this, you can tell them it was me or that you had no knowledge of it and continue with your career".

Marg wants to fight and the first thing he had to do from a business point of view was separate himself from Capetillo and never admit guilt. It's the only logical thing to do, might not be the moral thing, but definitely the logical thing.

Do you respond to every rumor about you?

I don't.

I don't expect an athlete in the limelight to respond to every rumor about himself either.
