    Pretty much.

    I never knew it was on the same card as Duran/Moore

    Lewis: Resto is confused!
    By Lee Bates
    Upon reading the Fightnews report of Luis Resto admitting that his knuckles were pre-cast with tape soaked in plaster of Paris before hollowed gloves were placed over his fists in his tragic bout with Billy Collins Jr. nearly 25 years ago, Resto's former trainer Panama Lewis had the following response. "I really don't understand why Resto is saying these things. Obviously he is confused. I never even wrapped his hands for that fight." In a February 27th, 2008 deposition, Resto claimed that Lewis wrapped his right hand and cutman Artie Curley wrapped his left. Lewis maintains that both Resto's hands were wrapped by Curley. "I already served time for something I never did and don't know why he feels he needs to bring something like this up. My father passed away of a heart attack when I was incarcerated and the rest of my family suffered as well. I myself have suffered a heart attack and don't need to even be thinking about this issue anymore. I have nothing bad to say about Resto and will continue to pray for him."

    Lewis has a lot of fucking balls... I think someone should go to his house and blugeon that piece of shit half to death and then put him in a car with no steering and put a brick on the accelerator. Suffered? Lets not talk about suffering you piece of shit.

    Sorry, I fucking hate this asshole and anyone that works with him in the sport should be fined.

    He has no bussiness going near a ring, gym or fighter... I swear to Christ if I ever saw him in the street I would hit his fruity ass with a 2x4... No joke!!!!!

    Must admit I know nothing whatsoever about this case so will reserve judgement until I watch the doc.

    Sounds a bit shocking though.
