    So you're basically saying you believe Pacquiao will win this fight because he's already seen Margo's style and knows how to win against it?

    yes. He's seen Margo's style, but a better version of it. Even though he lost the first Morales fight, it was still close. And Morales like I said is alot better.

    EM's jab was light years better than Margo's horrible comparison

    I get what you mean but it's totally different. They have a similar offensive arsenal and the superb chin but that's basically it.

    Morales counters as much as he does press. Margarito's idea of countering consists of eating a punch then offering 2 in return:lol:

    Morales presses alot more than he counters. He is just alot more educated about it than Margo.

    To say that Morales counters as much as he presses is flat out false. I doubt you've seen many Morales fights

    It kind of helped that my parents were able to pay me back dumbass.

    :lol:

    I guess you also ignored the fact that when they payed me back I went with my dad to Chicago.


    Stupid tool.

    :good I didn't get what your comparison was hinting at until that post. I agree that Morales had everything Margo has to offer and more and Pacquiao still left with 2 victories.

    I still think Margo is a live dog.

    Morales had most of his best moments when he used volume puching and drove Pacquiao backwards. The thing is in order to do that, you have to be able to take Pac's shots and keep coming. Something both Morales and Margo can do.

    I just don't think Margo can use volume punching as effectively as Morales did. too slow and not smart enough.

    I can't believe people are still jumping to this stupid assumption that PH|LLA is saying they're exactly alike. ****ing read his posts, before having a go at his opinion.

    Idiots.

    And I do see some similarity. The truth is though, Margarito brings a style that is similar to different aspects of other styles Pacquiao has faced, and brings the strength and size of other opponents. He's no direct copy but I can see some similarities to Morales. It's a very watered down Morales, yes, but that's a style taught in the region and you can see some similarities.

    good point, they are both from Tijuana. I hadn't thought about that.


    oh and the funniest is the guy who said Agapito Sanchez has a similar style to Margarito.

    Yeah I think those are the deciding factors in this fight. I don't see Pac standing in there banging with him if he feels Margo hurting him.

    Not in the sense that he counters ala Floyd he doesn't. Morales counters in a sense that he gets off first and lures you in an exchange, finds a hole then unleashes combos.

    In all honesty I just dont think you actually believe yourself, this fight its a BS Fight you are just trying to justify this fight hyping margarito up, margarito is exactly what pacquiao likes and you know it, same **** againg but worst, come forward fighter with no defense at all and you relate margarito to EM to hype him up, ffs pacquaio is gonna shut him down and you know it, dont try to hype this fight up, because of people like u is why boxing is turning to be a promoters sport and not for the fans, ARUM Loves people like u, U FILL HIS POCKET plain and simple, and yes mayweather is also a ****ing *****, pacquiao and mayweather both of them its equal fault this fight isnt happening but well if this fight isnt happening at least give us something worthly and not this BS Fight and adding that I dont know I am guessing it will be a **** undercard(top rank), promoters are suppose to give or adapt to what fans(clients) want to see not us fans are suppose to adapt to their conveniencies(BS Fights, catchweights, shitty undercards, etc)...
