MARGARITO. Put an Asterisk on it.

Antonio Margarito and his trainer are temporarily suspended. Surprise, surprise. I'm just saying....I was at The Cotto vs. Margarito fight in Vegas 6 months ago. Makes you wonder if his hands were all "plastered-up" then...that explains all of Miguel's internal bleeding, etc. Cement in the glove tape? Whoa. By the 6th round the shit is like carrying bricks in your gloves. We will never really know. Cheaters suck.
From Reed Saxon / Associated Press:
Boxer Antonio Margarito, photographed after Friday's weigh-in, was temporarily suspended on Wednesday after the California State Athletic Commission announced it found a "foreign substance" in the boxer's hand wraps before his Saturday night loss to Shane Mosley at Staples Center.
A 'foreign substance' was found in the boxer's hand wraps before his loss to Shane Mosley.

I am disappointed as a boxing fan that he was suspended. It means something was there that wasn’t suppose to be there. It is unacceptable.
