Antonio Margarito Plaster Handwrap Scandal

Antonio Margarito will be fighting against Manny Pacquiao on Nov. 13, 2010. This wll be a great fight to watch and I bet Manny Pacquiao to win this fight by knockout in the later rounds. However, there are also fear that Margarito may win the fight if he can cheat again. Margarito is even nicknamed by boxing fans as Margacheato for being a cheater in this fight against Shane Mosley. This came to be known as the Antonio Margarito handwrap scandal. In that fight, before the fight started Margarito was found wearing a hand wrap with plaster-like material. This material will add significant harness on the fist and thus causing tremendous damage. The Margarito Mosley still happened despite of this discovery but of course the hand wrap was replaced with a clean one. Ironically, the fight ended with Margarito knocked out by Mosley. Because of this scandal, there are speculations that during the Margarito Cotto fight Margariti cheated by using the controvrsial hand wrap. In the fight Cotto was brutally defeated by Margarito leaving Cotto bleeding and a totally disconfigured face. I hope the Pacquiao Margarito bould would be a clean and a great fight.
