Margarito plans September return

[killersheep]

Caught with Plaster like substance in JANUARY OF 09. It's now June and the ban is already over?

BS, if the punishment is a year, make it a year.

Yea, like you and Spicoli have already suggested, somehow the math just isn't working out for me. Not sending much of a message to the boxing world about how serious cheating and defaming the sport is. I guess not too serious.

If they allow him back, they should make him the first boxer to wear "see-through" gloves!

Better yet walk him through a "plaster detector" or place him under "handwrap supervision" for the remainder of his career.

Got to come up with something... any of that sort, to eliminate the lingering cloud of doubt, left in the wake of his dishonest and unprofessional practice.

By the way, has he apologized to those concerned thoroughly? Or has he written...
"I'm sorry for being dishonest, to have seriously endangered the lives and limbs my fellow boxers for my corrupt boxing ways, and I a pledge to refrain from repeating these same offenses in my undertaking as a professional boxer, in the immediate future"

100 x as a form of "extreme punishment". LOL. Maybe just "Sorry" 1000x on the blackboard!


Sorry fella's I see it as a pathetic display of governance, should they allow him back. This could be a minority opinion, nevertheless, it has to be brought out. Boxing should be wary of this...

The mighty moolah! Power on display...

Personally, I think the guys ruined. The mental edge is gone and almost any game fighter can use that bit of doubt hanging in Margaritos mind and snowball it to a win over 10-12 rounds. With the exception of Cotto, because lets face it... the uppercut just cant miss Cotto.... oh and Judah... Zab's hes got his own set of problems.

I think we'll find that Mosley ruined Toni worse than this handwrap situation.

I would rather Margarito be broke and never fight again than him get paid to fight again, but if he does fight again I want him destroyed!!! I want it to look like a couple Mafia hoods worked him over with baseball bats....and that's better than he deserves that lying cheating cocksucker!

Well look i not biggest fan of Margarito but look dudes but from what i read he was caught before he used it in the ring right. So that means the only actual proof that he had in using it was before a fight. Everthing else is speculation his fights varied on how well he did so i cant make it out. Also the found traces of shit and never really said anything about it. I mean if they used a right amount you be able to just say it was plaster. So pretty much all they got him for was attempt to use it right.
