Comments Thread For: Margarito Files Application: California License Request

[The Big Dunn]

Instead of reading Dan Rafael and Kevin Iole's emotional rants based in fantasy, you should try reading the actual report numbnuts.

No plaster, no plaster wraps.

Get it right.

Saucy Jacky there was something very hard in his gloves. no need to downplay it.But I think he may not get his liscence back unless he acts more contrite. There is no way he didn't know what was going on.

Are you for real? The fact anything abnormal was in those wraps is serious. Your love for a boxer or country should not blind you to what is right.

Under CSAC rules you're only allowed to have tape and wraps. Anything else constitutes an infraction. You could put cotton balls on your hands and they would've suspended him for it because it doesn't fall under what can go on the fighters hands.

The knucklepads were old rolled up gauze that fighters use in the gym all the time to protect the hands.

Not plaster, not plaster wraps. All they constitute under CSAC rules is an infraction, not cuz' they were plaster, but because they were more than what is allowed on the hand.

Its the difference between a felony and a misdemeanor.

In other words, what Resto did was try to murder, Margarito got a parking violation.

No actually there wasn't. Only one of the inspectors said that it felt stiff, but the others said it felt soft.

Only the notorious aspect of this story has been reported.

Many people also don't know that the pads were touched by 15 people after they were confiscated including people from Mosley's camp.

Yep. This pretty much sums up the double standard that people use with Mosley. He cheats and gets the pass, but Margarito is condemned for life, I don't get it.

Sorry, but that simply is not true. I can find you 20 articles right now that prove you incorrect, find me one that proves it was only gauze.

Tests show plaster of Paris ingredients

A California Department of Justice senior criminalist who inspected the wrappings under a stereomicroscope and with an X-ray fluorescence spectrometer determined the wraps contained sulfur and calcium, according to a document obtained by the Times. Those two elements, with the addition of oxygen, make plaster of Paris.

Thanks to another poster who prepared this post below:



"The panel rejected Margarito's plea of ignorance -- he told the panel that he just held up his hands to be wrapped -- and Capetillo's insistence that he had simply made a mistake during a hearing that lasted more than five hours in Van Nuys.

Che Guevara, the inspector responsible for supervising Margarito's hand wrapping, testified that he had never seen that sort of pad used before, apparently missing it being slipped into the initial wrap before Richardson's objections.

Another inspector, Mike Bray, said during questioning that he had seen the pads and that they were "moist and dirty looking with a white substance smeared across the pad, like a cast plaster." [3]

A Department of Justice senior criminalist who inspected the wrappings under stereomicroscope and X-ray flourescence spectrometer reported calcium and sulfur were discovered, noting the elements make plaster of Paris with the addition of oxygen. The report was dated March 19. "The commission's decision appears to be supported by that report," said Karen Chappelle, the state supervising deputy attorney general for licensing who urged the California commission to revoke the fighter and trainer's licenses. "The only things that are allowed in hand wraps are gauze and tape and those items aren't gauze and tape."

Good move Tony, this is what I wanted to see, even if you don't want to fight no longer in Cali at least make the right thing and face those ****ers.

sounds like someone is in denial. There have been reports that testing done by the csac found the key ingredients for plaster of paris on the wraps.

Link or it didn't happen.
