    I'm going with Garcia in this fight and hope he can pull the upset. boxing needs fresh stars and If Garcia can do it, he can become a major player in the sport.

    Having watched that link, I think to say Garcia was destroying Hernandez is an exaggeration. It appeared as though Hernandez was not having any great effect upon Garcia with his punches, but was outboxing/outworking him the majority of the time, with the obvious notable exception of the KD at the end of Round 2. However, the way it appeared, though Hernandez could have probably beaten Garcia on points, he didn't want to risk it with a cut and having already been shook by Garcia's power once, so it did appear that he got out of the fight to me. That said, Garcia isn't exactly a technician and neither is Margarito, and both are tough, so it could be an excellent fight, and Garcia does have a chance depending on how much Margarito has left.

    Getting Margo out of the picture might be good for Arum though? He promote the other guy?

    I liked the dude's style. He had that exciting pressure "Mexican" style, but he seems pretty defensively responsible and has a nice "switch-stance" offensive style to keep his opponent eating lead hooks once his hooks get flowing. Margo seems a bit faster, but he ate a LOT of hooks with Clottey.

    I would like to see this fight now.

    i think the money too made out of margo and thaat he would be seen as a viable opponent to pacman and other arum WW and LMW means he wont want to get him beat, the other dude would take some time getting to margos stature, you could be right though my good man :good

    I like the kidds style and straight forward approch. He looks strong and can bang with both hands and he doesn't need to be a great boxer to beat Margarito, as long as he can take Margos pressure and punch this will be a good fight. I dont see it going the distance cuz neither of them are going to run! I love these kinds of fights:happy

    Pavlik/Margarito could happen in Dallas. Check out the vids:

    I think it is in Kelly interview.

    everyone has to start some where. wining minor titles here and there. now that he has a major fight let's see what the kid can do. I like his confidence and attitude. he's not cocky or arogant and has a fan friendly fighting style. he would be a new face in the game if he can upset Margarito
