    I suppose that anybody who is cheating that way, the least they want is for anything to be noticed in their hands. And Margarito looks totally fine parading his hands all over the place. I will watch the fight again and see that close up his hands (left hand, like the picture posted here).
    You do that.

    Look from minute 1:56 and on. Look at him when he's being interviewed by Max with his hands up high to everybody's view while he's talking in front of all cameras, boxing experts, and so on. Is there a possibility that he cheated? OF COURSE! But I still think it would be a bit dumb for someone who cheated with his handwraps to be parading them all over the place, not hiding at all, and even in the interview knowing the cameras are showing and recording everything. Also, how can we explain the fact that Cotto's punches didn't do a thing and he kept walking through them with ease? Unless he injected plaster in his face.

    Yes but the more you get away with something the more confident you become with it, not to mention the knuckle pad (which is what is covered in plaster) is under the wraps. I agree with someone else on here who said he probably started using them after the Williams fight, he needed to start winning big and he totally destroyed Cintron in even better fashion in the second fight to the first.

    But really how can looking at Cotto's face be weak evidence?? Was it weak evidence for Billy Collins? Cotto's nose was busted up bad very early, i think it was the second round. Marg is not a huge puncher and Cotto is one tough bastard too. I can see where people are coming from saying we can't be sure, but in them cases common sense should prevail and common sense to me points to Margarito being a cheat and not just against Mosley but against others including Cotto!
