Tito' situation is not the same as Margarito's. If any1 saw the 1st fight camp of the Super 6 on Showtime, they showed how Mikkel Kesslers trainer was going 2 wrap his hands and Wards trainer objected. Saying gauze 1st , then tape. No tape on the knuckles 1st, guaze and then the tape. That's what happened with Trinidad. That's why he never got suspended for anything. Tito just fought a guy that wasn't right there 2 be hit and got outclassed. Kinda something like the De La Hoya fight b4 he decided 2 go for a light jog in the middle of a boxing fight. Margarito is a disgrace. Please don't associate the 2.

This is all about what Margarito has left. If the man can still take the same shots he took the first time, Cotto gets stopped again. Clinching and head movement rights the tactical wrongs of the last fight, but Cotto just won't be able to handle him if he can't hurt him.

Class stuff from Steward. He knows whats up. Not like the amateurs on this site who don't understand boxing.

Those pads' weren't **** to be suspended over. They need to issue an apology to him and pay him for lost time for that bull****.
The whole thing was a bogus sham and an innocent man got dragged through the mud for nothing.

Yes, thanks for informing me about a fighter's unofficial weight on fight night actually being on a scale as well. I had no idea when Lederman always talks about "our HBO unofficial scale" that he wasn't just talking about taking a picture of the fighter and simply guesstimating a ballpark range (laughing). Not to make your head spin too fast, but you do realize that many times these "unofficial" weigh-ins are done in jump suits and shoes on? And you have heard of Ray Leonard putting weights in his jump suit when he fought for the inaugural super mw strap? And maybe, just maybe, these unofficial scales can be self serving to the network and promoter(s) to not raise any red flags in Vegas for a line not to shift outta control? Then when you finally wrap your head around this, you'll also start to realize why many fighters like a Lil Floyd, RJJ etc. don't even let an HBO unofficially weigh them.

Originally posted by lopez36 View Postit's almost the same,he was caught with illegal handwraps,they said it was illegal and his dad said he ALWAYS did it the same way,in other words he always cheated..oh and by the way,they both had don king,i believe thats why no big deal was made,believe me it that was arum in his corner,something would have been done,but it was corrected in the dressing room,so no big deal,but still it was illegal and his dad said he always did it like that..so....lol,come to your own conclusions

Coming from the trainer himself who has had a fighter against him AND INSPECTED HIS WRAPS BEFORE.

This rematch is shaping up to happen.
I dont care what anybody says Cotto will play it safe and repeat the clinic he was putting on rounds 1-6 in the 1st fight.I could see more head movement and clinch at times.No way margarito ****s on Cott's boxing skills.Brawl is to be avoided.
I'd like to see him get his license exclusively for the rematch.Question is,will toney be the same after the beating he took against mosley?
Alot of ppl say cotto isnt the same.Is toney? I wasnt really impressed with his comeback but it was his 1st fight back so it's whateva.
As of with emanuel,he expressed on how cool cotto can be at times.I remember reading an article where he would get frantic at times over comments from the media about how big of a problem foreman presented.He can be himself,but come fight night he has cotto on top of his game.
