Fighter has famed attorney by his side at disciplinary hearing
For over five hours Antonio Margarito heard witness after witness give their testimonies regarding the illegal hand wraps confiscated on January 24. And after a unanimous decision by the commission, both the boxer and his trainer Javier Capetillo had their licenses revoked for one year by the California State Athletic Commission.
Flanked by high-profile attorney Daniel Petrocelli, the former welterweight champion listened as his case was presented, and as a plea went out to lift his suspension.
I spent the day listening and watching the proceedings at this disciplinary hearing and will have a full report with more exclusive photos and quotes in the next posting. Stay tuned to this column and myboxingfans.com for what I saw and heard at today’s dramatic meeting!
