NAZEEM RICHARDSON ON HOW MARGARITO "LOADED HIS GLOVES" With Pedro Fernandez audio

[awdleyfuturehalloffamer]

I don't think it's the first time he cheated, because you know how hard it would be to convince a fighter to cheat, one time, if he never cheated before? almost impossible. Therefore i believe that they cheated in many fights and found a way to hide it from prying eyes somehow.

Yeah but there's no proof he used loaded wraps against Cotto. Considering the boxing commissions in the area I think they may have caught him there

I agree with the whole "Cheating is unnaceptable" and Tony should face the consequences blah blah blah. But for the Cotto fight someone even posted links that talked about how he was clear from the Cotto fight. Also, Margarito was parading around the ring with his fists held up high in view of the public, cameras, interviewers, Cotto's team, etc. Wouldn't any cheater in his/her right mind hide his fists/wraps instead? Does this also mean that Margarito put plaster in his face and body to protect himself from Cotto's punches? Cotto's punches had no effect whatsoever when they faced each other.

IF he'd kept boxing he would have won

I agree. Regardless of Cotto's punches being pillows against Margarito, he was scoring combinations with ease.

If it was someone else who started this thread and shared this article it would be different but DannyG has shown how he dislikes Margarito specially after he beat Cotto the way he did. Since then, DannyG has started so many threads out there to discredit Margarito's victory vs Cotto even way before this whole wrap scandal. You guys might remember.

Again, what Margarito did vs Mosley WAS WRONG, I am not defending that.

Now I wonder that Tito Trinidad had in his gloves when he was told to unwrap.

I'll preface this by saying I don't like Margarito, never have, there was always something that pissed me off about him. But personally I remain unconvinced he always cheated. I think Capetillo may have worried that they overtrained a bit for the Mosley fight, and knowing of Mosley's stamina & chin, decided to try & sneak the wraps in. When I look at the fights with Cintron (where he cut his wraps off after the fight in the ring) and Cotto and look at the punches, I still see the kind of punches landing on the men that should cut them up. I also remain unconvinced how aware Margarito was of it, mainly due to what Nazeem Richardson and others present have said about his reaction to having to take them off. I definitely think Capetillo is guilty, and should never be allowed near a ring again, but I still haven't seen enough to be judge & jury on Margarito.
