Comments Thread For: A Note on the Antonio Margarito Handwrap Issue

[Check_hooks]

margarito knew darn well what was going on that night. he was the favorite going into the biggest fight of his life against a former steroid user in both fighters home states so he wanted alittle insurance that he would win.

a lifetime ban is exactly what he needs and he should be making tacos at taco bell for the rest of his mullet wearing life

heres the thing...if margaritos now ex trainer said that margarito didnt know, then that should enough proof...if margarito knew, dont you think his ex trainer wouldve taken margarito down along with him?

man, if i were in the ex trainers shoes, i would take margarito down with me knowing that he knew...if i go down, he go down with me, easy as that!!! but thats not the case...his ex trainer said no, so lets move on and give margarito the benefit of the doubt.

The CSAC rejected Margarito because he openly thumbed his nose at the commission punishment by fighting down in Mexico and mugging to the camera while mockingly holding his taped fists up and twirling them around...Then he would sign on to take another fight before he even met with the commission.

These are the actions of someone who has learned nothing from what happened and someone who obviously does not respect the sport, it's authorities, or its athletes...As such, how can any commission give him back a license that involves him taking another fighter's life in his hands?

Of course, as everyone knows, Texas does NOT have a real commission anyway...

This is the deal, all boxers know what kind of wraps they wear. More important, boxers know if they punch or not. Margo was a common fighter with common skills and lack of speed transformed into a feared puncher through the use of loaded wraps. With loaded wraps he was able to intimidate and destroy boxers gaining fame, power and money. With out the bricks his is just ****, evidently exposed against Mosley and Garcia. Now he will have a pay day and pac a picnic day.

We are back to the times whnn the Mob ran boxing. Integrity was second to greed and business power. It's a sad day for the sport of Boxing and the statement is clear.
It's OK to load your gloves to beat someone you couldn't beat for fame and money.
If you get caught, you can always come back a year later and still make big fight money.
Gentlemen, The Integrity of Boxing lost by KO to greed and a Commission who doesn't really care about the sport.

***, MARGACHEATO, *** JIMMY JOHNSON AND *** BOB ARUM for sacrificing the sport to fill more their bank account.
Viva Boxing and **** all the ones who stain the sport with lack of integrity.
