Dan Rafael convinced Margarito cheated against Cotto in their first fight

[WetSexyLlamaPR]

After seeing @RealMiguelCotto beat up Margarito, who showed little power, I believe even more he had loaded wraps the first time around.

Also here is a link where Kellerman, Lampley and Steward all state their belief that Margarito had loaded handwraps against Cotto in their first fight.

Tony had two eyes, didn't go through a layoff and hadn't gotten his ass kicked by Pac and Mosley back then. Tonight's Tony was a deteriorated fighter. Dan's a dumbass.

Some more tweets from Dan Rafael.

@JeffWald Good to hear. Can't imagine they were rooting for Margacheato.

That tweet was in response to Jeff Wald saying he watched the fight with Sugar Ray Leonard who was rooting for Cotto.

@Silensachi I am not Puerto Rican.

I don't think Margarito cheated in their first fight.

This coming from a huge Cotto fan. Margarito was too confident of a win to have cheated, IMO. Cotto's gameplan won him the fight this time round, and it was helped by Margarito sensitive eye.

And, he had bigger size gloves in this fight as well...I agree with Rafael being a dumbass.

Cotto's no spring chicken either bro. Last I checked his career has had some pretty grueling fights as well.

Torres, Judah, Margarito, Pacquiao and Clottey.

I feel like Cotto just fought a much smarter fight where he never let himself get caught on the ropes and spoiled any chance of Margarito getting an offense going by clinching and moving Marge to the center of the ring.

---HBO's Max Kellerman pulled no punch, saying he believes that this performance basically proves Margarito had a plaster edge in the first fight. "Obviously, he didn't have the same effect. We all know what it is."
