Comentario sobre Mikvaot 9:6
עַל הַבְּגָדִים, מִצַּד אֶחָד, אֵינוֹ חוֹצֵץ. מִשְּׁנֵי צְדָדִין, חוֹצֵץ. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר מִשּׁוּם רַבִּי יִשְׁמָעֵאל, אַף מִצַּד אֶחָד. רַבִּי יוֹסֵי אוֹמֵר, שֶׁל בַּנָּאִים, מִצַּד אֶחָד. וְשֶׁל בּוּר, מִשְּׁנֵי צְדָדִין:
En la ropa, [si el tono o la mirra están] en un lado no se interpone; por dos lados se interpone. El rabino Yehuda dice en nombre del rabino Yishmael: [se interpone] incluso de un lado. El rabino Yose dice: con respecto a [la ropa] que pertenece a los constructores, [se interpone cuando está] en un lado; y con respecto a los que pertenecen a boors, [se interpone cuando está] en ambos lados.

English Explanation of Mishnah Mikvaot
On clothing: if on one side [only] they do not block. But [if found] on two sides they do block. If the stain can be seen on only one side of the clothing, it does not block. But if the stain can be seen on both sides of the clothing then it is a deeper stain and it must be removed before the clothing can be successful immersed.

Bartenura on Mishnah Mikvaot
ושל בור – worse than a common, uneducated person (i.e. more correctly, someone who is not meticulous in his observance of the commandments), for he is not mindful of the dirty that is in his clothes unless it comes out from side to side, and the pack-saddle or cushion that we stated above (i.e., see the previous Mishnah) that it interposes, that is when it passes from both sides. So that there should not be a pack-saddle that is more important than the clothing of a common, uneducated person. And the Halakha is according to Rabbi Yossi.

Rabbi Judah says in the name of Rabbi Ishmael: on one side also. According to Rabbi Judah, even if the stain can only be seen on one side of the clothing, it blocks immersion.

English Explanation of Mishnah Mikvaot
Rabbi Yose says: in the case of builders they block if on one side, but in the case of the ditch-digger only if on both sides. Rabbi Yose says that when it comes to builders, their clothing cannot be immersed even if the stain can be seen only on one side . According to this interpretation (others interpret the mishnah to refer to bathhouse attendants), builders take care that their clothes shouldn't have any stains on them, and therefore they would wish to remove this stain. But ditch-diggers (this is the interpretation suggested by Albeck others read "the uncultured") do not care if their clothing is stained on one side. Therefore, it blocks immersion only if the stain can be seen on both sides.
