By Brent Matteo Alderson - Recently one of the sport’s beat writers commented that members of the media were overly critical of Antonio Margarito because they hadn’t bought into his prowess as a fighter and used the incident with the wraps to validate their original opinion of him in order appease their own egos. This writer also wrote that certain journalists were quick to disparage Margarito in an attempt to devalue the writers that held the Mexican slugger in high regard. Talk about some baloney, hasn’t everyone heard of Dempsey-Willard? [details]

Yes, he was caught cheating and never entered the ring with loaded gloves.
1 year suspension is enough punishment.
Others have actually CHEATED and haven't been punished.
Treat everyone the same. No special treatment because one boxer is more popular or nicer than the other.

And this isn't cause I don't like him.
If you were attempting to cheat you should still be fined the max punishment.
Same with attempted murder. Having loaded or about to have loaded gloves is no joke, this sport is dangerous as it is.

There is no reasoning with fans like you.

If he tried to cheat once, he probably cheated other times aswell. Margarito is the one who put the blame on his trainer only. And didn't margarito say that his trainer wrapped his hands the same like every other fight... hmmm...
