Margaritos Camp Offers An Explanation

Where is the WBA in all this? This was a WBA title fight correct, shouldn't they shoulder some responsibility in checking equipment prior to the fight?
Shouldn't this be part of the sanctioning bodies tasks?

Maybe I'm out of line here, but my interpretation of "sanctioning" is saying this is a legal title fight.

The state has to sanction the bout as well,its not just up to the WBA. So if the state athletic commission doesnt like it,you cease to have a fight.

Fine, why weren't either the California State Athletic Commision OR the WBA involved, between the money in sanctioning fees these two organizations get SOME of it should surely go to making sure the equipment is up to code.

I hope it isnt true, loading up your glove is a serious crime. I'd hate for tony to do jail time, he just doesn't seem to be that type of guy. I really believe he had no idea if his gloves were loaded. As much as I loved how shane won, I think they totally fucked up tony's concentration with this bullshit. Im not making excuses for tony but anybody who is getting ready to go into a fight after a long long preperation and training period, would have flash backs of his accomplishment and worry he would be accuse of something very serious.

Another person im worried about is cotto, heres a young undefeated guy who has all the potential to be one of the greatest. Yet he loses to tony who is currently under investigation. I have questions like, what if cotto will never be the same fighter after that devestating defeat to tony and he lost because tonys gloves were loaded. it would be a real shame, that is why i can not get mad at guys like danny g.

I just hope this turns out to be nothing and cottos lost to tony is legit, and they both carry on their careers.

The people have to understand when boxers going to fight should use a new dry Hand-Wraps for boxing , not that humid Hand-Wraps or gauze with sustance for feel more harder their fist ,that was that created the big issue , i hope all this thing is not true , this will affect all Margaros career ....................Is sad to see all of this issue

My bet is somebody in Mosely's camp knew he was juicing his wraps.They dont check wraps that heavily normally. The guys both train within miles of each other,so its not beyond the pale that someone who was in Mosely's camp used to be in Margarito's.
My bet is somebody quietly said,"You wanna check his wraps". And Id think the quiet voice had to be pretty sure,before he wanted a double check.
I still hope this all turns out to be BS,because Margarito is a fun fighter to watch. But hearing that explanation makes me seriously consider that it isnt.

So you are just going to dissect my question instead of answering it?

Oh come now,even in relatively mid realm fights,half the time you wouldnt use the gloves the fighters are using in the ring in your gym for fear of getting someone hurt.
They dont usually check that close

How is that ok especially in a title fight? It would not be a big deal given the budget of the WBA and the California State Athletic Commision, to pay someone to stand there and watch them wrap their hands, put on their gloves and be safe about it. Shit like this has happened before, and unnecessary and serious injuries have happened. I don't understand you saying, that's the way it's been in the past so it's fine to do it this way now...........
