" Trinidad was an abrasion against the rules. Margaritio downright had a weapon. There is a difference when you say you are playing chess and have your men lined up differently, as opposed to having an extra man on the board. Margarito tried to bring extra men. He had an ACTUAL SQUARE BLOCK OF PLASTER OF PARIS in his knuckle pad. Margarito had a strip over the back of his hand, around his thumb and wrapped two or three times down to the wrist. They told me it was because of a previous injury was why they wrapped it that way. One look and you could tell it wasn't right.

 

We went back and forth about that. Margaritio's coach said that he expected this out of me because of the Trinidad thing I guess. The original arguement was about the tape being directly on the skin, where it's supposed to be gauze. they went and got one of the Commissioners, and they got the tape off and and asked that Margaritio's people start wrapping Margarito's hand again. Margarito had the left hand done. I saw that but I noticed this pad on a table next to Margarito and when I picked it up to check it out, I noticed it was kinda hard. when I handed the knuckle pad over to the chief commissioner, A BLOCK fell out. I couldn't believe it. I picked up the block. That when I wanted to approve the other hand. They had to take the wraps off the left hand and A BLOCK falls out of the padding of that hand too. I was sitting with these two blocks in my hand. The commission wants them, and I said no way. I told them I was going to give them to anyone but Shane Mosely's lawyer. I put the blocks in a box and handed them to Judd Bernstein"
