"a guy fighting the biggest and toughest monsters two weight classes above his own, and WINNING. Because you're such 'boxing fans.'" Pacquiao's been fighting nothing but hand picked brawlers since Marquez. Well matched guys, coming off of losses. He aint ever going to lose to an idiot brawler, who don't know when to duck. Manny's world famous for running from Marquez and Mosely. There isn't enough money in the world to convince Arum to risk Pacquiao with a slick guy
What the hell are you talking about? SSM has NEVER been a "technician" in the ring. He is a hyper fast (now just decently fast) boxer/puncher with animal instincts that never stops coming. Sloppy or not against Margo all you need is shots straight down the middle. A guy with a mean 1-2 will kick Margo's butt. You have said nothing I don't already know. The question is if Pac has the chin of Mosley.
Hell no he wouldn't. He may fight mostly NOW, but there was no way Pac was going to fight Mosley. No way. Shane was holding Cotto's title. Shane agreed to all weight demands. Pac wanted NO PARTS of that. :deal
Exactly. Thats why Roach and Poochio pick him. Just like they pick all of there opponents. Big mistake. Margo's last fight was nothing more than a sparring session. With Mosley Margo was dealing with the wrap stuff, plus Mosley used the right style for him. Margo was always an animal. He has nothing to loose and everything to gain.
Exactly which win made Margo an "animal"? Can you show two opponents that showed his "animal" tendencies?
When people all the sudden just assumed he was because he threw 1100 punches per fight. They didn't like to recall the fact that he got outboxed by a green Williams.
pac should knock him...nobody seems to be able to address how he will deal with the speed....that much is ignored.. from a technical standpoint he has a big enough problem with Pac's speed let alone everything else he is up against....
He's not really a threat. He has advantages, but with him having the slowest punches in the whole of boxing...he can't take advantage of those advantages. Unless Pacquiao does something stupid and sits on the ropes and lets Margarito unload on him...this should be an easier bout than the Clottey bout.
