I think that if boxing let Mosley fight after admitting to Roids, and Tyson after the bite, then why not Margarito. Now getting liscensed in the US is a whole other story. Not sure if and when that will happen. What do you guys think?
Antonio Margarito to return for May bout against Roberto Garcia in Mexico - ESPN
i think what margarito did was worse in my opinion
The Tyson Bite and Steroid scandal is not the worst things to happen in boxing....People don't seem to know things from the 40's 50's 60';s 70's etc....Shit Ali alone topped them all
Not sure if Margarito will be licensed in the US again but his suspension is up

He'll fight some bums in Mexico, then probably get a liscense somewhere in the US and fight on a undercard.
I am excited to see Margarito in the ring again. He is getting old but he may get an ESPN fight or two.
antonio margarito will definitely get a license to box in the U.S. in the near future. why? because he'll make money for arum and arum has alot of power in boxing circles.
regarding margarito's match on may 8th, in mexico, he'd better come prepared cause he's fighting a very tough opponent, roberto garcia. this guy is really good and vastly underrated. the undercard is going to be really good as well. wbc interim super featherweight champion, jorge solis defends his title against puerto rico's mario santiago. in a great, great matchup between two top prospects, urbano antillon is pitted against the hard-hitting, undefeated brandon rios of la colonia, oxnard. and still, alfonso lopez, son of finito lopez is also scheduled to fight on the undercard.
i will definitely be buying this ppv event. if margarito can get past the tough roberto garcia impressively, i think he can win another world title.
There really is a vast difference between steroids & biting in the ring & what Margarito did. The fact is the precedent was there with Luis Resto & Panama Lewis, who were both banned for life. The same should have applied here.Quote:

The best way to go about it is boycott his fights...Not everyone is going to do so because sadly enough less people care then those who do on what he has done....
Personally I am just glad he was caught before anyone really was hurt...Don't know and don't want to get into it if he has or hasn't gotten away with cheating or has or hasn't cheated before this incident...I mean he has looked good in one fight like shit in another...Margarito was always known for his chin and stamina...That was enough to wear some guys down so he could get the work...Others Like Cintron were just not what they were cracked up to be...Then again who knows
Point is he was exposed and for that regardless of who in the past was victim if any we don't have to worry hopefully about any in the future
I agree with Daxx. We can't stop him from getting his license but what we can do is boycott his fights. Don't watch. Catch it on youtube or something. I know I'll never respect Margarito enough to watch another fight of his. I don't even watch his old fights. He cheated in the worst way possible. Its still disgusts me thinking about it. If my own brother did that bullcrap Margarito did I would boycott him the same way. There has to be a limit in what boxing will take. Margarito committed the worst crime in boxing.
Margarito has NEVERapologized or even admitted that he did anything wrong. And until he does, him being relicensed should not even be considered.
He is a scumbag for what he tried to do.
Indeed. Margarito is a rotter, I certainly have no interest in seeing him fight again. People who cannot admit when they have done wrong are the lowest of the low.Quote:

You are absolutely correct! I forgot all about that. Margarito has actually went even further than not apologizing or admitting guilt. Margarito is actually playing himself out to be a victim. His trainer did this without him knowing. Its sickening. And I agree, if he can't even admit and apologize then he need not his license.Quote:

...and people are worried about pac cheating. Shame that this guy gets to fight anywhere outside of prison.
again, why are you saying it like its a good thing? you just bitched and moaned about Pacquiao being a cheater and cherry picking, dude you're nothing more than a Mexican boxing fanboy, cause you're either that or fucked up in the head if you're glad that the worse proven cheat in the sport in the last decade is coming back to tarnish the sport's reputation even further than he already hasQuote:

elterriblemorales,
and the fock are you to tell me who i can be a fan of? i am a antonio margarito fan. i do not condone what he did but he did serve his time and i think deserves to make a living. you or anybody else certainly ain't going to stop him. and about pacquiao, i don't have to be a fan of his! sure i think he's a great fighter but for many reasons i do not gobble his nuts like you seem to do. and do what if i follow mexican boxing? does that hurt you and why are ae you so concerned who i like and who i don't like. vete a la verga puto!

hope he chokes on a burrito. or sumthin.
Although what Margarito did was a disgrace, it will be interesting to see how he looks after his long layoff and beatdown from Mosley.

Look in the criminal laws what is the sanction for attempting to injure somebody with a weapon, you will see that he really didn't do his time at all. As for the living, it's like if a pedophile was working in a kindergaarden, have almost been successful in trying to indecently touch a kid, was suspended for a year and would want to come back to the garden and somebody saying: "he did his time, he was a good kids guardian, he understood and deserves to make a living now".
If you want to make a living out of something, you have to be responsible enough of your actions and learn to deal with the consequences if you cross the border. that's the same for Hands of Plaster, he hasn't been responsible enough to act properly, that's his problem and he only has to find another job now, as he's beginning of the 30th, that shouldn't be a big problem.
like i said, marge did his time and deserves to fight where ever he wants. rest assured, some State will grant him a license to fight. it's only a matter of time whether most of you like it or not. there seems to be some kind of double standards when it comes to offenses done by boxers. why are all these boxers who have been tested positive for steroids, PED's, etc...getting a free ride and margarito, who was caught with loaded gloves but didn't commit the crime gets blasted by boxing fans? steroids and PED's can be dangerous as well because it gives a boxer a huge advantage over his opponent. like i said, cheating is cheating. let's not make margarito the poster boy for cheaters cause he isn't the only one that got caught.
well of Margarito wants to make a living he should go sculpting or work in construction, given his experience with concreteQuote:

and you don't follow mexican boxing, you basically pick any guy to win just for the mere fact that the guy is Mexican, i'm not the only person who's picked up on this or has commented on it, you're not a fan of the sport, you're a fan of anything Mexico, which isn't anything bad but shows you're anything but unbiased, and only reason i'm calling you out on it is cause you actually believe that the piece of shit known as Antonio Margarito should be allowed to fight again even though he was caught cheating, and put the lives of others at risk while doing so, fuck that shit, if you condone that crap than you're just as big of a piece of shit as he is, y si no te gusta lo que te digo bueno vete darle una buena mamada a el cabron de Antonio Margarito
EDIT: answer me this, why should Margarito get a chance when another fighter (Resto) was caught for the same thing and was banned life?
elterriblemorales,
you assume that i only root for mexican fighters? and if i do, what's wrong with that? why does it bother you so much? listen putito, i can root for whomever i want and your little ass ain't going to do anything about it. me entiendes mendes? about margarito, you must really dislike him for destroying our miguelito cottito don't you? let me ask you, was there any proof he fought cotto with loaded gloves? can YOU prove it? if you can't you'd better go sit your ass down y dare a tu pinche puta madre la verga como yo lo ise.
are you really that stupid? are you fucking kidding me? apparently you don't know who Louis Resto is, and don't know what happened cause of that fight, same thing could have happened with any of Margaritos opponents, fuck you dude, your credibility just went down the shitter, how you can condone what Margarito did is beyond me, and don't be shocked if a ban comes your wayQuote:

We're talking steroids vs armed aggression, which are 2 very different things, Resto never fought again, neither was Panama Lewis authorized to rule a corner, the only difference with Margarito is that he didn,t have time to use his weapons, Nazeem Richardson caught him hand in the jar before (and probably he was armed too against Cotto). He'll fight again probably because Arum is his promoter but he shouldn't never be allowed, ever again to walk on the canvas, like it or not.Quote:

Ok you say he had lethal weapons in his wraps, he loaded his gloves, he tried to kill or injure Shane Mosely. Total Bullcrap
There was NOTHING even remotely dangerous in his wrap. All they found after extensive microscopic examination were TRACE ELEMENTS of calcium & sulpher which are found in HUMAN SWEAT.
Tony Margarito was banned by the CSAC BEFORE!!!!! any tests were carried out on the wraps, so really he was banned on SUSPICION not PROOF
BTW The illustrious CSAC are the same state commision that were recently banned themselves from holding amateur boxing tournaments in the state due to corruption in their ranks. I know who I believe
Let him get licensed, watch him wrap and then the proof of how good he really is can be answered in the ring square.
NOT at all, they found 2 fuck** huge pads of PAris plaster, what you're mentioning is Arum words who said: "well, some creams have same common ingredients than the Plaster of Paris yadi yada", the bullshit from a Promoter, then Arum did shut up when the commission testified these were 2 plate of plaster found in his gloves, not only "some elements that vaguely look like plaster", this was for real mate, hence why we're outraged that he can box again. This is not plain "hating" as most of us liked Margarito before, we're just lucid enough to recognize a serious fault and danger when there is one, it was not only some ingredients, it was a plaster substance, get the fact straight:Quote:

The only thing missing was... air... which means time to let it dry to have the full plaster. Here below, you can see a picture of the pad once dried if you're not convinced.

He is a low life for doing what he did but he does need to make some sort of living, and I hope it is just that a living. I hate for him to have a huge pay day.
Where's Taeth's post insisting that Margarito shouldn't have gotten suspended in the first place?
Where's one post where you actually make a good point yourself as opposed to just slagging of or disagreeing with somebody else without actually retorting anything that was said? Perhaps I'm wrong, or just only happen to see the crap posts you make, but it seems you are quite the troll.Quote:
