But he got up and stopped Ankamah. That had zero to do with 'loaded' gloves, but a whole lot to do with being tough. Not only physically but mentally.


THis is the kind of post I respect.. Not all this concrete bullshit. smh



With or without plaster, anybody who has followed Margarito's career would understand what he's about.

He built his career out of pure tenacity, heart, determination, ability to take punches, while dishing out his own assault.. He was able to beat talented opponents with these traits.. Punching power was never a big part of his game..

Plaster aint got shit to do with why he beats people's asses..
Clearly you're both big fans of Margarito and Greynotsoold has followed him from his early days, and that's great. But my point is that once you've been caught cheating, people are gonna doubt everything you've done before. It's no different to Ben Johnson and some of the Jamaican sprinters. Everything they've done has a question mark over it.
