MAB speaks out on Margarito "Plaster-gate"

[TitoFan]

Good point Tito but if we assume he used in Cotto fight then i guess he must of used it in the Clotty, Cintron and Williams fight also right. Which brings me to the point you heard me say it a million times Tito and that is how effect are they really because the results have varyed some. Now i and i am not saying he should not be banned he did cheat but atfer the year is up i while not mind him coming back because he did his time which if he serves i while not have a problem with him at all.

Not necessarily. It's highly unlikely it's been a career-long thing. He may have first used it for the Cotto fight, who knows. My point is that I don't see how you can "clear" someone, when the evidence, or lack of, is long gone with the garbage trucks.

Exactly. Plus does anybody really think that the inspector that was appointed by the commission to watch the hand wrapping, is going to admit that he could have missed it. Hell no, he won't admit that he could have fuked up, when it's way to late to be able to check the wraps.

The State of Nevada Athletic Commission came out and cleared him, just 2 days after the Mosley/Margarito fight. That's some thorough investigation that they did there.



Just thought I would throw this in. Here is Dan Rafael's thoughts on the situation.

It's a wrap for Margarito and Capetillo - ESPN

But at the same time there no proof that he did tell you truth. I dont think he used it in the Cotto fight tell you truth Cotto has always been prone to cuts and his chin and stamina at the end of fights arent to great. Reason i think he used it with Mosley is because Mosley chin is grant and he is a strong finisher so to me it would make sense would it not. Anyhow i while never know how many times Margarito used it your guess it as good as mine but i not going to pick in choose what fights he used it in though.

[Mr140]

Also Tito question people saying that Cotto was first time Margarito used plaster in his hand wraps. But then those same people say there is no way it was his first time Maragrito used it against Mosley that just sounds like they are using a double standard because there no proof behind it at all. To me it is Margarito first time or he has been doing it for a while now. And there really nothing i have seen that would make me think of any differently tell you the truth.
