    It was a ***ing insert that boxers use all the time in sparring sessions to protect their hands. Not saying thats ok because it is still against the rules but seriously man if you want to seriously discuss this subject for the millionth time at least know what you are talking about first.
    Really? thats what it sounds like to me

    Mosley’s trainer, objected because the taping was too thick. When the excess tape was removed, Richardson pointed to two pads in the wrapped hand that appeared to be wet and, he said, “laced with flecks” of a substance.

    That substance, according to Judd Burstein, Mosley’s lawyer, appeared to be “like plaster of Paris”.

      Exactly, the whole thing's ridiculous. Yes he cheated because what he did was against the rules. But in no way, shape, or form is it remotely close to Resto or Margarito. End of discussion

          it is to show that they both couldnt fight anymore, Margarito only 1 yr while Resto was for life, the jail time for Resto came cuz of everything else, agree none compare to Luis Resto cheating, but they said that maybe the mafia had something to do with it and this and that

          As for Tito, I read that the tape directly on the skin is not allowed, but I also read that Sr. was wetting the wraps and using almost a roll of tape on either hand

          Quote myself
          "Resto got 2.5 years in jail and was banned for life from the sport.
          Margarito, 1 year paid vacation (or so it seemed)
          What did Trinidad get?"

            A cast would mean the entire wrap would have been dipped in plaster of paris dumb ass a cast is not two pads underneath the wraps. The pads again are routinely used in sparring by fighters with injured hands.

              who you calling dumbass?
              Monkey *****

              "Cast Like" , not actually saying he had on a cast you idiot, of course he didnt have one on

              the fact it, the wraps and maybe even the pads were laced with something that made them hard, not normal

                Yeah and the intended Victim Shane Mosely has said that the pads were most likely used to protect Tonys hands and not actually inflict damage. You can read the interview in Shane's last interview in the Ring Magazine 8 months ago if you don't belive me.

                  maybe, just maybe the pads were there to protect Tonys hands from the laced wraps

                    Either way it was still illegal and he deserved to be suspended. We both agree to that don't we? I may not agree with all the idiot fanatics who want to see Tony nailed to a cross but I do understand why he needed to be suspended.

                      I did good call man. Still mean what I said though. Margarito isn't comparable to Resto, and Trinidad isn't comparable to either one of those
