G****VINE, Texas – “Disgusting” is often a word that comes to mind when thinking of controversial boxer Antonio Margarito. And Margarito, along with trainer Robert Garcia and training partner Brandon Rios, a lightweight contender, didn’t fail to disgust the other day.
A video surfaced on the Internet – first at Fanhouse.com, then later on other sites after Fanhouse apparently pulled it – of Margarito, Garcia and Rios making fun of Freddie Roach’s Parkinson’s disease symptoms.
...
They mocked Roach’s tremors, laughing like classless juveniles at the plight of a man who is fighting a debilitating, life-altering disease. Margarito held his arms in front of him and shook them, mocking Roach. And then Garcia pointed to Rios, whose held was tilted forward to the left and was shaking and said, “Hey, there’s Freddie Roach.”
It was a lowlife move – one that was particularly surprising coming from Garcia, who has had an exemplary career and has always been highly regarded as a fighter, a trainer and a human being.
...
It’s disgusting, but that’s par for the course these days with Margarito.
You can’t expect a dog to have table manners and, apparently, you can’t expect Margarito to act with class.
