Pacquiao better hope Mayweather signs

They are talking about him fighting either Miguel Cotto again, or Antonio Margarito if Mayweather doesn't sign, and that is not good for Pacquiao. His repuation already took a hit after him refusing to comply to drug testing, then fighting in that dud against Josh Cottey.

He is lose-lose situations with either Margarito OR Cotto - especially Cotto, because that is a fight he already won, and won in brutal fashion. There is absolutely NO reason for him to fight Cotto again. None. Margarito will be a much tougher challenge than most think. Personally, I think AM is too tall and rangy for someone who gets hit as much as Pacquiao does. Pacquiao is no banger like Mosley, and AM will walk through his shots just like he did against Cotto. Will Pacquiao wilt like Cotto did? Who knows, but his only hope will be NOT to!

Pacquiao is at the point of his career where every fight he fights from here on out should be to enhance his legacy. Beating Margarito might enhance it slightly, but beating Cotto will do absolutely nothing. In fact, he might catch a lot more critcism than praise for fighting Cotto again.

Pacquiao better hope FMJ signs. If FMJ doesn't sign, that makes him a...well, that's a whole other story.

 

OP is a hater.

No, neither of those fights are ideal... thats true.

But Pacquiao tears thru Margarito easier than Mosley did.

 

We talk about it all day at the gym, and in other forums I go to, and on YouTube. I've never been to this site, but I imagine it's just the same! Anyway, biggest fight in boxing history. Of course people will be talking about it non-stop.

 

I've been boxing for 15 years now. I've been watching boxing for even longer. I'm rarely wrong about fight outcomes. I'm telling you, Margarito won't be as easy for Pac as people think! The fight will hinge on wether Ant can withstand Pac's onslaught. If he can, that spells bad news for Pac, because like I said, Pac gets hit to much, which is something you want to avoid against someone like Margarito.

 

Oh, I love Floyd Mayweather. He is just behind the guy in my profile pic when it comes to my all time faves. But if things are what Arum says they are, with the agreed drug testing, ect., if he doesn't sign, then yes, I will think something is up.

 

Yes he is. But there is also such a thing as biting off more than you can chew.
