maybe he needs big chalenges to keep him motivated at least hes not retiring like the other idiot that was previsiously at the top of the p4p lists when he had manny worthy chalenges to face.
Margo does have some issues with southpaws but generally ones that are even bigger than he is which is rare at 147. I'm glad he didn't fight Winky at 154 cause he would have lost that one in all probability. Smaller southpaws like Judah and average sized ones like Quintana & Collazo he would eat for breakfast all day every day. It's probably a fact that someone like Pac would be the smallest fighter Margarito has faced possibly ever. Not only would he outweigh Manny over 10lbs he would have massive height and reach advantages. All of those heavy shots Cotto landed bounced right off of Margo and keep in mind Cotto weighed at least 160lbs against Margo and is known as a big puncher at 147.
here is Roach in a serious discussion on Pac's options. starts at 5:45 min into the first video [yt]Q1bTwC4URZQ[/yt] [yt]xaW_WKor4mo[/yt]
LOL..An old De La Hoya doesn't come close to a WW champ in Tony...styles make fights and AM beats Manny by KO
It's all about the money. I give pacman better chance of wininng fighting margarito than fighting mayweather. What has pacman got to lose anyways? he loses to margarito and everyone will say his too small. If he wins he becomes a 5 division champion :good
I picked Oscar, but said it would be extremely competitive and wouldn't be surprised to see Manny win. However, I don't think he really has a hope in hell against Margarito, who is an animal at welterweight.
:nono Lets not start drooling at the mouth just yet, listen to these simple facts. 1. Mayweather is a pure boxer. 2. Pac is at his best when toe to toe & has a tendency to do so. 3. Mayweather closer in size to Margarito than Pac. 4. All FMJ has to do to beat AM is be FMJ, Manny is gonna have to TRY outbox AM as his main strengths are not boxing. Floyd is all wrong for Margarito just like Margarito is all wrong for Manny. Botswana :thumbsup
Look, the guy went for DLH and all people said it was a circus and he had no chance, too small, and worst of all, they insisted that Pac should've fought JMM again or other lightweights. Now that they are contemplating to fight the best welter and people still have something to say. They are not crazy, they just have the balls to take on anyone. Since Pac has already logged a win at 147, who's to blame them to think that they are qualified to fight the best at that division considering that Pac wants to maintain his status as the best P4P today.
You have to admit, Manny is ****in fearless! There aren't many fighters out there today calling out fighters by name that they want to face. I think Manny would have to fight the perfect fight to beat Margarito but i won't write him off completely..Pacman can beat Margarito for the simple reason that Margarito is slow on his feet and Manny is fast and has tremendous stamina. But this is a bridge too far.
i think he's just being realistic. i'm a pac fan too, but i think AM is too much for him. but still, we will be rooting for pac if this fight pushes through :deal
