Comments Thread For: Antonio Margarito Welcomes a Miguel Cotto Rematch

[PR ESQ.]

Everyone bitching about Margarito making money off of Cotto is a hypocrite.


Not a single one of you had a problem with Mosley making money with Miguel,

and Shane is a known cheater.


Quit hiding behind that lame excuse and just say you don't want to see Miguel Cotto crushed by Tony again.

Dude, losing or winning has nothing to do with it! I disagree vehemently. Most detractor of Maggie have the same perspective for any fight that he is mentioned for especially in view of the fact that there are several other more worthy and legit contenders waiting in line for their shot at glory and/or big paydays.

If you love boxing, how can you support this dude?? Wake up, son! Stop holding this fools jock. For the record, I use to love this guy back in the day!

I love boxing but people like you fail to realize that most people are defending the facts. Yea dude got caught attempting to cheat. He did his time though, sat out the time that was given to him. We don't know if he used him before Mosley. Let's see if his wins were a fluke or not.

If one loves boxing,

how can they stand behind the Mosley fight with a straight face and then turn around and say they don't want Cotto to fight Tony because they don't want a cheater to make money off of Miguels name?



They don't really love boxing if they use two standards for two cheaters.

Johnny.....

I was gonna point out that loading gloves is much worse than steroid abuse, then I was going to add that at least Shane admitted what he did, whilst Margarito denied it and blamed Capetillo.

Then I was going to add something about how long it took me to get my passion for boxing back after Shane (my very favourite fighter at the time) let us all down..... yet Margarito gets caught pulling the lowest trick in boxing, then gets *****-slapped and embarassed by Shane..... only to be immediately rewarded with a title fight.

But I eventually decided not to focus on those points because there seems to be two distinct perceptions on this issue, and the subject has been discussed enough already.

Instead, I will just give my opinion..... **** the facts and personal agenda's.

I hope Marga****o never get's his license back.

And if he does get his license back, then I hope he gets butt-****ed again, like he did against Shane.

Also.....

I believe that it is unwise to wish harm on another human being, and nobody has the right to judge his fellow man unless they have been appointed by the law-of-the-land.....

But..... if Bob Arum and Tony were walking along holding hands (which sounds likely) and they just happened to stroll out in front of that bus.....

Dude Mosley was still denying he did steroids till his balco testimony leaked while he was training for the mayweather fight remembe,r so how can you respect what mosley did even though he was lying to the public knowing inside he did cheat but Margarito is a bigger cheater right.

[LeadUppercut]

Good for you.



Nothing you've said though changes this fact,

Shane Mosley cheated the sport of boxing. Whether he apologized or not is irrelevant as it doesn't erase what he did.

Yep, I agree.....

..... but what has that got to do with Margarito loading his gloves?

[LeadUppercut]

That's what it is really. It looks to me people are scared to talk about black boxers for fear of retaliation.

They always come back with the steroids is different than plaster bull****. In reality you're still a cheater if you use steroids.

Again, so what.....

..... what has that got to do with Margarito loading his gloves?

Because Shane did not get caught 10 years ago, we should allow glove loading?

Back up bro..... "respect".... where the hell did you get that from?

I said this.....

" Then I was going to add something about how long it took me to get my passion for boxing back after Shane (my very favourite fighter at the time) let us all down..... "

Forget using the word respect OK, coz that never happened.

That cut me up when I heard what Shane did.

Here is my bottom line.....
who gives a **** what happened to Shane 10 years ago?

Using a 10 year old cop out as an excuse for glove loading is just lame.

I will accept the point that "Margarito has done his time"..... but I will never support him, and will only watch him in the hope that he get's Shaned again.

I don't believe that I have ever gone on record condoning what Mosley did?

Nonetheless, I’ll agree with your point that there is a double standard but it’s based on the egregiousness of each of their respective infractions. You seem pretty reasonable so you have to admit that what Mosley did “vis a vis” Margie is not even remotely similar in severity. However, in an effort to clearly define my position, what Mosley did was take a substance to essentially outlast his opponent in the stamina game whereas in Maggie's case attempted to use bricks to beat his opponents to a pulp. You can’t discount this fact. Why condone such conduct irrespective of the fighter's knowledge?

I can appreciate and understand where you’re coming from but in my mind he committed the gravest of capital offenses in boxing not so easily pardonable. He f**ked with the integrity of the sport we all love.
