    So why did 5 or 6 well known trainers say they could easily insert something into a fighter's handwraps without them knowing?

          Already been addressed earlier. The Mosley fight was clearly one he didn't want and his camp for that fight did not go well at all.

          To you guys, Cotto was the best fighter he fought. Realistically, Cotto was a wet dream for Margarito. A perfect style for him to look good against.

          A guy like Mosley who is fast, goes to the body, clinches, hits harder than Cotto and has a much better chin than Cotto was stylistically wrong for Margarito. Mosley fought a great fight to deal with Margarito and did all the things Cotto failed to do.

              I find it funny that people think Margarito was clean in his bout, against Cotto. He was the heavy favourite going into his fight with Mosley, yet he attempted to cheat; do you honestly expect me to believe that he wouldn't try to cheat in a fight, where he was the heavy underdog? Please hombre.

                He did fight ******, and he still would've won if he had been fighting a clean fighter.

                He's been touched by other fighters before that and never came remotely close to busting up like that. He had issues with bleeding inside mouth than bleeding around his eyes before Margo 1.

                  My biggest issue is that Cotto. Lost and for years took it like a champ even when the hand wrap scandal first came out he said margs beat him fair and square them all of a sudden he comes out like a little beeotch with iPad showing pictures and crying like a little girl. PAC made him look similar so did PAC use wraps too? Whatever Cotto and his weak az fanboys. Had manny not destroyed Tonys eye tony would have whooped Cotto again. It was the same exact fight until it got stopped. Cotto acted like he had some revenge. But he didn't.

                      Disgusting. A lot of people got to show how ignorant and hateful they are when this controversy broke.
