    ....what would you work on? Who would you bring in for sparring partners? What kind of physical exercises would you have him do?

    I would work on conditioning and stamina. The only strategy that can work for margo in this fight is to pressure the hell out of pacquiao and throw as many punches as possible. There's no way he can outbox pac

    I'd just constantly remind him Pac truly believes he cheated and wants to embarrass and make him another battered Mexican on Pac's resume. I'd also tell Marg his money was stolen and subsequently put in Pac's head and Marg needs to break it open like a pinata.

    I'd have him working the jab more than he's ever used it before. He has the size and reach and it's a must to use the jab to stop Pac coming in. Also, I'd have Margarito throwing a lot of straight rights behind the jab. Margarito also needs work on hand and foot speed. I'd have him do some plyometrics, medicine ball throws for upperbody explosiveness, and agility drills. He also has to keep his defense tight and not just try to walk through Pacquao.

    I'll just tell him to take a vacation since I do not have the urge to train him. No matter what he does, he will lose anyway.

    Great posts. I agree with the straighter punches, plyo, developing the jab. He's always had good stamina and conditioning anyway so its a given he'll be the best conditioned for this fight.

    How about sparring partners? I'd think El Gato Figueroa would be alright. I'd doubt Zab Judah would deign to spar but he would be an awesome addition.

    Stamina is what he has enough of, he needs defense.

    I would give Margarito PED's to make it a fair fight. He wouldn't get caught.Sarcasm fellas. Theres nothing Margarito's trainer can do. Hes going to try to make Margo box more like he did against Roberto Garcia because his chin doesn't carry the aura it once had from being his sole line of defense. He's probably going to pray and hope as well that Margarito doesn't get all out annihilated.

    I think I'd work mostly on steady pressure behind a stiff jab. Tony can't win a boxing match, but he can win the fight. Steady pressure behind a good stiff jab would help him act like the bigger man, and that is what he needs to do more than anything else.

    I guess to add to the stuff already mentioned here, Margo has to work on being able cut off the ring and trapping Pac against the ropes. He sure as hell aint going to win this fight in the middle of the ring.
