    Default Inside Margaritos Hand Wraps

    Margarito's hand wraps contained plaster elements, state Department of Justice says

    Margarito's hand wraps contained plaster elements, state Department of Justice says | The Fabulous Forum | Los Angeles Times

    3:09 PM, March 26, 2009

    The hand wrappings confiscated from former world welterweight champion Antonio Margarito minutes before his scheduled title defense against Shane Mosley in January contained calcium and sulfur, two of the primary elements of plaster of Paris, a state Department of Justice laboratory reported in documents obtained by The Times today.

    Hardened gauze pads that were inserted inside the wrappings around Margarito's knuckle area were seized Jan. 24 after Mosley's trainer Nazim Richardson objected to their use.

    Margarito proceeded to lose his title in a ninth-round technical knockout by Pomona's Mosley, and the California State Athletic Commission subsequently revoked the licenses of the Tijuana fighter and his trainer, Javier Capetillo, and the pair will likely not be allowed to fight in the U.S. until next year.

    A Department of Justice senior criminalist who inspected the wrappings under stereomicroscope and X-ray flourescence spectrometer reported calcium and sulfur were discovered, noting the elements make plaster of Paris with the addition of oxygen. The report was dated March 19. "The commission's decision appears to be supported by that report," said Karen Chappelle, the state supervising deputy attorney general for licensing who urged the California commission to revoke the fighter and trainer's licenses. "The only things that are allowed in hand wraps are gauze and tape and those items aren't gauze and tape."

    Chappelle said Margarito and Capetillo have yet to appeal their revocations, although Margarito promoter Bob Arum has said he'd like the boxer to return to the ring in Mexico later this year.

    Arum had no immediate response to the findings, saying, "I'd have to see [the report]."

    I would like to encourage everyone to let the commission know that they should permanently revoke Margacheato's license.

    They don't have an email address, but there's three ways you can file a complaint.

    First you can submit one in writing to the below address.

    California State Athletic Commission
    2005 Evergreen Street, Suite 2010
    Sacramento, CA 95815
    Attn: Complaint Administrator

    Or you can call (916) 263-2195 and press "8" on the dial pad, or fax your complaint to (916) 263-2197.

    You know I will be giving them an ear full.



    Also, please post the above information on any other boxing forum that you may visit.

    I am going to write them Diane to urge the Commission for compassion and understanding for a first offense.

    You would.

    Would you be so compassionate if it was any other fighter? I doubt it. Especially, if someone used loaded wraps against Margacheato.

    He and his trainer should be banned for life at the very least. This is not merely unsportsmanlike or just a violation. This is not merely cheating...this is CRIMINAL! Risking unsuspecting opponent's health and lives. If not incarcerated they should be banned for life.

    When Miguel gets thru with Margacheater, there will be nothing left of him. I can't wait for the rematch and the redemption that will come with it. Cotto will stop Margapuzzy in 5 rounds. With out the plaster, Margaputo is nothing more than a human punching bag and hits no harder than Malignaggi. I wonder how many excuses Arum, Margarito and team Margarita will come up with as to why the rematch should not take place.

    Even without plaster casts Margarito will happy slap your hero into quitting like a bitch again.

    Young Blood i do agree with you on few things but quick question did they find plaster or cal and sul because would it turn to plaster with oxgen. If thats the case they find plaster and not just elements right or i missing somthing if i am please point it out maybe i read it wrong or somthing. As for his past use its hard because the results of his fights vary alot.
