Try to put yourselves in Margo's shoes, you've been caught cheating with a very serious grave offense, what will be your reaction?

I think you will be worried... You cannot focus on the task at hand since your mind is consumed on your very grave crime and it's serious consequences that may affect your living...

Good point; and yeah being in a worried state of mind would seem to be a serious distraction.....I will have to watch it again; but I seem to remember Tony doing and looking the same as every other fight.....Sloppy, hard chinned, and just trying to bulldog his way through a fight......not to mention his typical smiley face when he kept getting punched over and over; so he thought something was funny enough to not seem that worried;D:owned:

A better question SB is would Tony even have ever been in a position to fight Mosley, or Cotto, Cintron, Clottey or anyone else without those wraps; if indeed he's used them before this fight?

Excellent pick BTW... I think I was not able to post my pick... was undecided on that fight...

I think most of those who picked Margo based it on Margo's indestructible performance against Cotto and Shane's tight loss to Cotto...

If margarito had his loaded gloves on shane would have been more respectful of his power thus maybe changing his go for broke style against margarito. U saw Shane get timid against Forest when Forrest was able to really hurt him, even in the second fight he was a bit gun shy. like i said when ur getting hit with power it tends to alter ur game plan.

i agree... finally i got an ally... ;)

I voted yes because anything Tony hit Shane with had he been able to load his gloves would have inflicted at least twice the damage and Shane would have been slowed by it and eventually Shane would have gotten on the bike or gotten worn out and TKO'd and maybe even permenantly injured.

Margarito and his trainer should have been banned for life after being caught!

Excellent point. When you are hit by a hard puncher you definitely are a different fighter inside that ring and this opens up for the harder puncher to be able to throw more. Being that he should be the aggressor. Shane was not affected by what Margarito was throwing. So much so, that Mosley was even the guy pushing the fight all night long. Mosley was coming to and pushing Margarito to the ropes. At the time I was astounded. Now I know why. Margarito wasn't what we thought he was.

I'm also for ban for life... What Team Margarito was trying to sneak can possibly cause serious injuries to opposing boxers...

I can't believe anyone would answer yes. Margarito was barely landing any clear, effective punches. The loaded wraps would not have made him more accurate. No, the result would have been the same.

No for a life band because i still haev no idea what he use people say brickes but form what i heard it not what it was and also lest not foget that Shane chin and body is about 10x tougher then Cotto i think Molsey would of killed Margrito wither he was loaded or not tell you truth.

Margarito couldn't hit mosley. He was hitting cotto. He just couldn't connect too well on mosley. He did land more punches in rounds 7 and 8 until he got ktfo by that surprise left.

Do you think Margo being caught cheating for a very serious grave offense was one of the reasons why he couldn't hit Mosley? Margo could be in a worried, distracted state of mind... No concentration at all in that fight...

About the punches he did land in rounds 7 and 8, if his gloves were loaded with bricks, would it have slowed down and weakened Mosley?

Re: If Margo wasn't caught with the loaded wraps, do u think he would have beaten Mos

this question is sick.

Almost like saying "do you think margarito would of beaten mosley if he was allowed to take a brick into the ring with him"

I personally dont wanna know or even think about the answer to this one!!

Exactly. Shane was far more skillfull all through the fight. Don't get me wrong I've enjoyed watching Margarito fight for a few years now but, god I hate to say it....skills pay the bills.

No, for two reasons. One, Margo's punches are always wide, and Mosley's speed allowed him to avoid the brunt of most blows. Two, Mosley made sure to stay close to Margo and warp up when necessary, thus not allowing Margo room for his long arms to get any leverage. The wraps would not have helped him.
