    It's like giving the same punishment to a "suspected" shoplifter as oppose to a straight up cold blooded murderer where all the evidence is in your face.

    Big difference between Resto and Margarito.

    The writer in this case seems quite biased and have a thing against Margarito.
    Dude!!! What are you talking about queationable use of plaster? Sulfur and calcium was found in the gauze - when wet hardens into plaster of paris. Sulfur and calcium isn't suppose to be in gauze last time I checked!!!

      The beating that Margarito got from Pac (busted rt. orbital) should've showed Margarito that he should stop fighting. What Cintron & Cotto had to go through their fights with Margo was wrong - FU*CK ARUM and TR for spinning a cheater another title match - I hope Cotton finishes the job Pac started (or should've ended when Margo fought Pac). Resto got his justice and spent time - Panama should've spent time also that lying sack of ****!!!

        from what i saw of the plaster htey recovered from the mosley fight - it didn't look that bad. . . obviously still a big difference, but not nearly as bad as resto. . .

        either way, they are only human, and should be forgiven. . . MOVE ON. . . I have forgave both margarito and resto. . . let them get on with their lives. . .
        thats real big of you to forgive resto, you think Collins family has forgiven Resto? You think you would have forgiven him so easily if that was you son, brother, friend who took the beating from him?

        Regardless of the result Margs intentions were the same to use those inserts to seriously hurt Sugar Shane that night. Thats enough for me, they should have given him the same as his trainer not the slap on the wrist he received.

          The author is on point. Resto had plaster, he cut out padding it was wrong & it caused a man his life in the end, not right away but eventually.

          Margarito has the substance for it in his glove but Bother Naz sniffed it out. If he didn't Mosley could have ended up looking like Cotto did. Margarito is a proven cheater just the same. he may have been getting away with it for only god knows how long. The intent was there & should not be dismissed just because it was caught. bob arum is a ****ing piece of **** for getting this dude his liscense back. The people that support Margarito still, whether Mexican or otherwise are simply ****ed up people. He deserves no defense. He's every bit as guilty as Resto was.

            Great article! Hopefully Cotto will target that eye all night and then end it with one of those left hooks from Hell.

              ****** sensationalist article.
              i dunno for sure what was going on with margarito's wraps, but what they apparently found was:
              "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."
              they used a damn microscope to find traces of sulphur and calcium!
              that's like saying pretty much everyone of you out there that has a banknote in your pocket is carrying *******, because statistically speaking that it true.
              i just find it very odd that they found nothing of much note.

                I agree with this article 100%. The Cheater should never box again and I shouldn't give him my money again. I hope Cotto Beats the **** out of Margarito's arrogant and cheating ass.

                    Resto is not the same as Margarito

                    As much as I dont like Tony, I cant say I agree with this article. It is not the same thing. Resto did actually used a weapon, Margarito was caught trying to use illegal wraps. Do I believe he did it before Mosley? Yes, I do believe he did it. But it is not the same thing as Resto.

                      Well MR. Lyle you are UN AMERICAN !!!

                      You just found a man guilty and sentenced before "PROVEN" guilty.

                      But if I were to expect commentary from someone like this it would be you.

                      What we do know is that Capetillo is a scum bag and deserves to be banned for life.

                      What we don't know is what Margo knew about this, if it was PROVEN that he knew like Capetillo did then he would be a scum bag as well and should never be allowed to lace up gloves for money ever again.

                      ONE that is game like MARGO is game has no reason to want to cheat , he believes he is winning in the sight of death. You have to kill every hair on him to stop him, and while one is doing that he always believes he can win.

                      WHY WOULD HE WANT TO CHEAT ?
