    I was thinking the same.

    At least Moore is there.

    Aye, hence my 'if' he can play the human punch bag early.

    My instinct would be he still can, Oscar and Clottey being huge guys absorbed Pacquiao's punching fairly well. Margarito will probably be tagged even cleaner but his size should help him somewhat compared to Cotto and Hatton and I don't feel Pac's a bigger puncher than Shane when Shane gets off. Shane still has that big power, sparking a big guy in Mayorga, hurting Floyd as much as he's even been, breaking down Marg himself, its accuracy and timing he struggles for nowadays but that wasn't a problem against Marg.

    My problem is even if Pacquiao tires, and Margarito comes into the fight, I could still see it being 50/50 at best or even a slight edge to Pacquiao. He's still going to be relatively the far quicker man and better mover, better defence. If Marg had fight changing power it would be a different consideration altogether but that he doesn't.

    :lol: Poor Rios went from everyones new one to watch to a complete **** in the space of two months.

    Don't want Mosley vs Pac at all complete mismatch especially after watching Mora. I'd say it would be a bit more competitive than the Mayweather fight as after Mayweather picked up on what Shane and Nazim had been working on it was finished. Pac hasn't got the same ability to adapt the way Mayweather did but watching Mosley vs Mora left me thinking how bad Shane was at cutting the ring off I think Pac would be able to get in and out on shane at will and bust him up bad. If they exchange though Mosley will look a lot better than he did vs Mayweather. Still though if it does come off it should be a one sided beating.

    I can see Piper getting raped by Hart at some point tonight without his back up with him now :lol:

    Should be good in the studio with them three though all different opinions hopefully.

    Piper: "I don't think he'll (Margo) be that much bigger (from when he weighed in)"

    That's why he's put on 15 pounds over 24 hours? :lol::patsch
