    Good point.

    By the same token, did Mosley's previous cheating cast a doubt on his great victory over Margarito:think

    So they acknowledged now that JMM vs Floyd was a tune-up fight? Did they also acknowledged that it was a joke mismatched fight? I guess you're one of the one million peeps fooled to buying that PPV.

    It is actually really interesting that. Pacquiao clearly saw something in margarito where he thought 'damn i would kick this guys ass so bad'. But i think its also the warrior 'hardness' attitude to him. When he sees a guy like margarito who people keep saying 'damn this dude can take anyones shots' and 'the guy is a machine walking people down', Pacquiao and other greats even mayweather relish those challenges. Steward said in i think the cotto fight 'this man just loves to fight, ive never seen a boxer who loves to fight like this, you can see it in his eyes'.

    In many ways his fights with EM and JMM were a testament to that mentality. In relation to the fight if margaritos chin holds up this will be an absolutely barn storming fight.

    Pacquiao's opponents aren't just getting bigger.They are getting slower,and less technically skilled too.

    Martinez,who has very fast feet and hands,and is a very good boxer,was never even mentioned as a potential fight for Pacquiao.

    I guess Arum didn't want him to have even a slight chance of losing.

    Bigger slower opponents,who have recently been KO'D,is the established way for Arum and Pacquiao,and they are sticking to it.

    That's easy to do when they all in house fights.
     
  15. The thing with Cheeto being able to take a lot of shots is pacman has a lot of shots to give.

    Pacman is too slick and dynamic for Cheeto to land.
