WBC: Margarito is innocent!

[Youngblood]

Supposed to release information mid March to what exactly it is, last I heard Mr140.

[Dizaster]

Maybe if he had absolutely no idea that his hands were wrapped in such a way and could absolutely prove that, then there would be a case for his managers and the person who wrapped him being thrown out of the sport and him being found not guilty of ill activity...
But I don't think that is the case is it?


And someone asked how they avoided being caught at the time of wrapping by the official who is supposed to oversee the wrapping... Not sure if someone answered this, but it was because it appeared like normal tape and would have felt like normal tape to the official, even once it was fully wrapped on Margarito fists, but the tape had a certain make up where after it absorbed sweat, it would go hard like plaster..

Kind of like plaster.. It's powder until it gets wet, then hard.. And you're hands sweat like a bitch in gloves pretty quickly, so by the time he got in the ring and 3 rounds in, the probably would have been much harder.. Or at least expand by absorbing the sweat and adding a denser layer over the knuckles..

Very very sneaky..



Did anyone see the episode of CSI or one of those shows where a guy injected liquid mercury into the face of his gloves to make them heavier and harder? Ended up killing the other fighter which was the cause of the investigation of course..

Really liek to know the substance and exactly how deadly it is before i see i guy baned i find it weird they woudl not wait till the substance was said before making the judgment on how long he should be suspended that is what i do not get why could they not just wait till it was confirmed.

Suspended pending investigation... I think that's basically how it works in any sporting or professional arena... Like a teacher accused of dealing drugs or hanky panky with the kiddies etc, or a sportsman suspected of drug use...

In the court it's innocent until proven guilty,, on this side of things though, it's more like, protection of everyone around the person first, then ensure everything is right before the person is put back into play...
It's for the safety of everyone around that a person is suspended and then investigated.. It's unfortunate to some degree if a person is found to have done nothing wrong, but it doesn't come up often that someone is suspended in such a way without a good measure of suspicion.

They had their license revoked now because the pad itself was illegal, whether or not it has plaster on it doesn't matter, it was illegal. It was used padding that was wet, and the trainer admitted to placing it in there.

This isn't over yet. They said the licenses were revoked for a minimum of one year. If the pad comes back as positive for some kind of foreign substance on it, they can change their ruling, and keep his license revoked for a longer time period, or for life.

[Mr140]

Well to me if it is not palster or somthing that can cause way more damage then fist then i say they should let him box next year i seen far worse then something wrong with the glove but if it was just somthing like like plaster which more harmful then the fist it self then yea ban.

Exactly, and how this guy behaves between his hearing when the final judgment will most likely be taken in to account his final judgment. His handlers are _________. (fill in the blank)

Owning up to what he did or to paraphrase his words "let happen" is better for him and boxing than to hiring some slick Lawyer dude whose interest is to drag thinks out so he can make more money. (I'd be willing to lay down odds that no one explained it to Margarito.)

Here's a good articly by The Ring, regarding Sulaiman's dumbass statement.



WBC's support of Margarito laughable
