Anyone else think Margarito is going to be a horribly difficult opponent for Pac?

Nothing, because I didn't want this fight and criticized it before it was announced. Although I think it will be a difficult fight, I don't think Margarito deserves the chance and shouldn't be getting it. He was exposed as a cheater and should not be walking back into a big fight like this, I think Arum has behaved like a complete **** over this issue, glossing over Margarito's misdemeanours to make a fast buck for himself. Bull****.

 

If Manny stops Margo, it would definetly be a better win than Hatton.

But not the others you mentioned.

 

My boy? have you read any of my threads?

i follow english boxers. the only non domestic fighter i like is pascal.

thinking that margo is dog **** can be mutually exclusive to bumming floyd.

spin this how you want but it is a joke fight.

 

Idiotic fans are overlooking Margo for reason of the cheat he was caught with... but brushing aside that incident Pac still faces a much bigger and more relentless opponent he's ever faced. The biggest difference here will be the speed factor. Can Margo ride the speedstorm out early and trap and poun\d Pac the way Cotto did? Or will Pac run wild on Margo much the same way he did against De La Hoya? Interestng question which I don't really have the answer for ans that's what makes it a very intriguing fight from my stand point.

The fight I can point out that made me thin Margo has a decent shot here is of all the things the Clottey fight. When Clottey pressed his size and strength advantage he didn't find it too hard to back up and land on Manny... and with Margo you get an even sronger fighter with a much more aggressive and high punch output style.

 

Hatton was coming off the second best performance of his life vs Malignaggi before Pac fought him. Pac couldn't have fought him at a better time, because the only time Hatton ever looked better was vs Tszyu in '05, and Pac was at 130lbs then.

 

Bollox, hatton was coming off one of his best performances vs paulie, he was unbeaten at 140 and i expected him to murder pacman.

smashing that cheating bum will only be relevant cos wbc have sanctioned this bs

 

Mosley showed how to beat Margo,it will be a decent fight but one Pac will win by stoppage.

 

Who you trying to fool? You're a known Floyd fanatic around here and one of the main clowns that tries to Ellerbize ESB with your obsession with Mayweather.

 

Ye just brush aside the fact he got caught cheating, much like mosley brushed aside margo

 

I love Paulie but he isn't a great fighter. Fine, I'll give you that one though.

Margo
Clottey
Cotto
De La Hoya
Diaz

Big names that are ripe for the picking. This is becoming Pac's thing.

 

The interesting thing is the height/reach/weight/strength disparity. But Pacquaio should do what Mosley did, Marg is older/rustier than then too. I also expect it at 147, which will be harder for Marg to make the older he gets

 

:roll: Typical response based on pure hate and ignorance from someone who refuses to face the fact that Margo is a dangerous opponent

 

Its obvious that If Pac cant hurt Margo and Margo can corner Pac, it will be a loooong night. I do think Pac hits hard enought to crack Margo as Mosley did though so it should be a slaughter.

I expect a more competetive version of Pac-Diaz.

 

Floyd just fought two 35 + fighters ffs.

 

Yes of course. a look at any recent posts of mine will expose that.

hell i even blame floyd for not taking the pacman fight.

doesnt stop this fight being bull****.

wouldnt expect a newbie to understand that.
