Thanks for the link. Thats Antonio Margarito. That was the main event. The problem was in the wrap not the gloves. You only get so much gauze and tape to use on your hands. But it sounds like they put something in them. We will find out when the test are back I guess.

All that and ended up getting his ass beat but a older fighter.

Yep, but the other dude was part of that steroid report, I forgot who published that.

Dan Rafael: "In Shane's case the general notion is that his doping was limited to one fight. He has an otherwise pristine reputation as a great fighter and a great guy and I, along with many others, probably will cut him some slack when the HOF vote comes."

Yeah he was in with Balco along with some baseball players and I forget who else. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BALCO

Among the athletes listed in the record of BALCO customers were:

* MLB players: Barry Bonds, Jason Giambi, Gary Sheffield, Benito Santiago, Jeremy Giambi, Bobby Estalella, Armando Rios
* Athletes: Hammer thrower John McEwen, shot putters Kevin Toth and C.J. Hunter, sprinters Dwain Chambers, Marion Jones, Tim Montgomery, Raymond J. Smith and Kelli White, middle-distance runner Regina Jacobs, boxer Shane Mosley.
* Cycling : Tammy Thomas.
* NFL players: A number from the Oakland Raiders, including Bill Romanowski, Tyrone Wheatley, Barrett Robbins, Chris Cooper and Dana Stubblefield.
* Judo: Conte was also connected with supplying "vitamin supplements" to the 1988 U.S. Olympic Judo team coached by Willy Cahill of San Bruno, California.
* Christos Tzekos and his athletes were initially connected to BALCO but later cleared.[3]


That story was big news when it broke.
