    Great win.
    Margarito still beats the **** out of 98% of the JW's/WW's in boxing.
    (Pac's speed & combo punching + Balls of steel to stand & trade was the difference)

    That is what separates Manny from the rest.
    Ultimately both Margarito & Pacquiao have the same warrior mentality, Except Pac has the skills to take it a step above.

    In one word...meh..he beat a recently disgraced cheater who hadnt looked good in about 2 years...Margarito is slow as molasses and uses his chin as his defense, only credit he (Pac) gets from me is for beating a much larger man.

    Manny fought the perfect fight won at least 9 rounds was only wobbled once but gotta outta danger and didnt let Antonio brutalize him

    I was a little disappointed cause I thought Manny did too much running and wanted him to stand toe to toe with Margo and have a real fight

    I dont think Manny could win if he did that

    Im shocked he couldnt stop him almost like Vitali vs Briggs

    It was a good win but I do think he took too much punishment that could have been avoided by him just boxing instead of brawling. It was a good win and he showed heart.

    Pacquiao definitely took too many shots, but I don't think Margarito and Mayweather could be more opposite in terms of styles, strengths and weaknesses.

    You mean that little pad in his wraps? Overblown... Besides ive been watching Margarito since he was a teenage prospect and he has always been a punishing puncher.. I highly doubt he was packing then.. Even his sparring partners say that hes a very hard puncher.. Was he packing in sparring too?

    Some have said this, but then others have said that he has no power at all...and then there's the whole 'how's the punch' thing in the Cintron fight (I believe). So who knows how long or when he was packing, but I highly doubt that the first time he got caught was the first time he tried to cheat.

    Odd. In that there was a brutal beating to both fighters, yet no knockdowns.

    For a big guy who had Zero skill behind his size, why is it Margarito is the only fighter that landed that many shots on Pacquiao in the last 7 years?
