    A mix. He's gonna pepper him with short and fast shots that carry a bit of pop each time in large quantities. After volume starts to do its work, he will sit down more on his punches.

    My guess is he'll try to do what he did against Oscar. If Marg corners him, expect Pac to come out swinging. I'm not sure If Pac can even hurt Marg.

    He will try and box Margo, but he will fight if he has to....

    This fight just got alot more interesting. The size difference was huge.

    I really dont know how PAc will hurt Margarito. AS long as Margarito is not too terribly weight drained then this is definately going 12 unless Margo KOs Pac.

    with a 20 lb difference and Pac's camp not focussing on mass/power, they go for speed. It's gonna take a toll for a Light Welter to knock a 162 - 168 lbs guy. But Pac has surprised us before.

    agreed

    it will be in bursts, but Pac WILL NOT stay square in front of Margo, cuz that would be just stupid. Footwork will be the biggest attribute in this match....

    manny will do potshots and counter bursts and will keep moving and turning margo for the first few rounds. he will also gauge how he handles margo's power. once margo's power has tapered off some, pac will be willing to more slug it out with margo

    He'll probably use they same strategy he used against ODLH - which I wouldn't consider pot shotting, btw - but if Marg lands a few good ones...its on!

    Pac is a proud man. If he gets caught with a shot, he's not the type to back down, he will slug it for a moment, after he recovers his sense he will go back to boxing.

    He will do whatever he has to, to win and the likes of you will be here with an excuse whatever way he wins. If he slugs and wins then Margarito was drained, if he boxes then he's a slut. If he has the ability to box and be successful with it then why not use it?, because clowns like you disapprove?
