    I love how everyone likes to bash on Margarito like every fight he's had with loaded wraps, but gives Pac the benefit of the doubt.

    I love how people put possible steroid use and loaded handwraps in the same basket. Having said that, obviously Margarito is never going to get away with anything again, and I don't doubt Pacquiao is on something. I just can't for the life of me look at the two in the same vein. Understand the arguement for it to some extent, but loaded wraps is a deadly weapon and an idication of despicablly low morality.
    You dont think steroid use is as bad as loaded wraps? Yeah, being able to have great stamina and power in the late rounds when your opponent is gasing out could be just as dangerous. Look at Cotto's face after the pac fight its about as bad as after the margarito fight.

    That's why I said I understand the arguement to an extent. Boxing is a deadly sport and any unfair advantage a fighter brings is disgraceful. But actually loading wraps before the fight is monsterous, only a complete thug would even think about it. Wheras you or anyone else can't tell me any top teir fighters or athletes in any sport aren't on any number of things that aren't detected, you really never know. Pacman is an incredible athlete with sensational work ethic, whether he is on anything performance enhancing or not. Margarito is basically a tough guy who very likely did use plaster in at least a couple of fights. It makes absolutely no sense that Mosley would have been the first opponent he considered using it against, after just coming off a Cotto victory who had beaten Mosley.

    What I'm saying is that theres no evidence that he did. There is also no evidence that pac has taken steroids. But there is a double standard going on. You can be suspicious of both because there are reasons. Pac refusing olympic style testing, and Margarito getting caught against Mosely. Apparently nobody ever watched Margaritos hands getting wrapped before.....

    the difference is Margarito was caught red handed with plaster in his wraps before Mosley, giving everyone REASON to believe and suspect he could have cheated before, especially since he's looked like shit the 3 fights after being found with plaster

    as for Pacquiao there is 0 proof not a single needle nor any other shred of evidence that he's used anything, only a fucking moron would try to compare the two then spew out the it's a double standard that people don't view both cases in the same light, but well just look who i'm responding to

    You clown , nobody in all of his previous fights watched the hands being wrapped is that what your telling me? STFU. Theres 0 proof on pac because he wont get tested, thats suspect to me. He could be using and stop before the mandatory tests.

    Whats this guys problem he cant argue without calling people names. You are the one that always starts the name calling, thats how you win arguements? Ok since only his last 3 fights count I guess? I'll oblige he fought Mosely who is a damn good fighter, had a layoff for over a year due to suspension, fought and won a clear UD, then fought Pac who is also a great fighter. He also beat alot of great opponents before that but they dont count I guess? They also ....all the different trainers , never watched him getting his hands wrapped?

    Guys get back on topic please....I don't and OumaFan, thanks for having a brain. Ricardo Mayorga is 37, he's had trouble making 160 let alone 154, and let's not forget that when De la Hoya whipped his ass he even tested positive for a diuretic....I doubt he's improved with age.

    Cotto can box, people thought he couldn't when he fought Abdullaev, or Shane Mosley, but he can and he's damn good at it, he should do it more often at 154.

    Cotto can box and move but I really don't think its the right way to go here. Controlled aggression. Take the middle of the ring and make Mayorga back up. He'll do it too. He should be able to back him up and pick him off at will with the jab and Mayorga just isn't winning this fight unless Cotto decides to track stay on the back foot and box and move. Even then Cotto should win but it gives Mayorga chances.

    I thought (and said on here, before the fight ever happened) that the worst strategy possible for the Margarito fight was to constantly box and move. He should have mixed in some aggression. He's just better as a come forward fighter. He wore himself out doing that. But even more so here I think he's better suited with fighting an aggressive fight. Not crazy, wild aggressive but aggressive.
