...i agree with cotto as well, i look at it like what if it was on of my kids in the ring with a guy willing to cheat in a sport where you already legally get to whip the shit out of the other guy and get fame and money for it. If someone for any reason hit my kid with plaster on thier hands, feet, nose, hell on the tip of his pinky my wife would probably be going through her purse looking for her pistol before i could even say to myself in my head " oh hell no open the trunk " Ok that may or not be an exaggeration but you get the point. With all the semi sneaky cheating moves that are somewhat allowed in the ring that increase a guy's risk of serious injury to come in with a weapon is bitch made and yes i he should be banned. I wouldn't take the chance with my fighter..this is a sport a game, get you advantage in the gym not with fancy new ways to sneak in weapons. Also as a side note this if and it's a big if .....was used in the williams fight makes him more attractive for big fights he took a lot of late shots from the guy and still well you know.....
