If Margo wasn't caught with the loaded wraps, do u think he would have beaten Mosley?

[Violent Demise]

No I think Shane had his number that night.....hell he hardly ever hit Shane in the 1st place; loaded wraps or not you have to hit your opponent

What he said

[XaduBoxer]

Just imagine with those bricks inside Margo's gloves, what punishment he could have dished out to Mosley... Well he didn't hit Mosley that much (he didn't even throw that 100 punches per round he's well known for) but at some instances, he hit Mosley with some solid punches... Now if there were bricks in those gloves?

Maybe, lol, there should be a rematch with some ACME products allowed into the equation......Don't forget he got KTFO and when was the last time that happened?

Shane was on fire that night, Tony looked in poor shape, he looked to be out of gas early and unable to stand with Shane that night....Mosley was going to win regardless

[Spicoli]

This shite is just getting flat out silly.No,Mosley was in a zone...once he started targeting in on that body & smircking at Margarito....you got that feeling.He stiffled Tonys attack from the get go,I dont care if he was wielding a machete.It was Mosley night.

That's some of what I noticed aside from the worried look... How could Margo be out of shape when 6 months ago he looked indestructible against Cotto?

This is not to take out credits from Mosley, he's very good that night... And this is boxing, upsets happened...

voted no imo Shane speed was just to much for Margarito

[XaduBoxer]

Try to put yourselves in Margo's shoes, you've been caught cheating with a very serious grave offense, what will be your reaction?

I think you will be worried... You cannot focus on the task at hand since your mind is consumed on your very grave crime and it's serious consequences that may affect your living...

I picked shane to win before the wraps theres my answer.

[El Kabong]

I voted yes because anything Tony hit Shane with had he been able to load his gloves would have inflicted at least twice the damage and Shane would have been slowed by it and eventually Shane would have gotten on the bike or gotten worn out and TKO'd and maybe even permenantly injured.


Margarito and his trainer should have been banned for life after being caught!

[ClubberLang]

I can't believe anyone would answer yes. Margarito was barely landing any clear, effective punches. The loaded wraps would not have made him more accurate. No, the result would have been the same.

[JazMerkin]

Nah, Mosley just had his number that night, the only way Margarito was winning was if he was packing a beretta in his wraps

I agree that speed was a factor in the fight, but I believe that Shane's fight plan of not allowing Margarito to work inside was the key for his victory. I do not believe that Cotto was planning to move as much as he did against Margarito and once he realized that he could not deal with his loaded gloves he was left with no other option but to stay away. We have to take into account that Margarito was not going to go out of his way on the attack against Sugar Shane knowing that his punches were not going to have the same effect. I do not take anything away from Shane he was brilliant and he won fair and square and I am so glad that he did not have to win despite Margarito's loaded gloves, because I am not sure how Cotto is going to react in his next fight with Jennings if in fact Margarito was loaded. I recall that at the end of Margarito and Daniel Santos fight wich was stopped on cuts, Santos told Margarito in spanish how incredibly hard his punches were, that was a bit strange to me at the time but I guess now lives room for speculation. Any way, I am new member of your forum, but I have been enjoying your postings for quite some time.

Nah he was ready and in shape....about thirty to forty seconds into the first round shane hit him with a right hand blind body shot that vibrated through his entire body. Margo's knees weakened you could instantly see that it dropped his condition from "full tank of gas" to "matter of time", haven't seen one punch with such residual damage like that in a long time.

Then add Shane's clinching, Margo, stone hands or not was going to lose this fight.

in fact here's a clip of the punch ive made.
