The guy is a tank, wraps or no wraps, 154 or 150... 147 is ala ODLH
Margarito is getting overlooked major league! People saying easy night for Pacquaio, speed will be too much etc
You get that analysis from the Mosley fight but Margarito wasnt 100% mentally for certain reasons.
If the guy has a good training camp and comes in healthy physically and mentally - I wouldnt be surprised if Pacquiaio loses
If i was roach or bob arum, i would have made this at 147. At Welterweight, Pacquiao does him over de la hoya style.
Trust me 150lber Pacquaio vs Margarito is a tough fight. Unless they put a limitation to Margarito rehydrating weight. Imagine him blowing up to 160 in 24hours
Man, im calling for an upset if those things I mentioned above happen
Ahh man, its very close now!
my opinions kinda change, im kinda favouring pac i think margs slow as hell but why ima stick to this. why not!!
war marg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
tbh, we dont actually know if he has been using them in the past
its just suspicion
He got caught. So he was obviously using them in the past otherwise he would never have been caught. Your seriously delusional if you really believe he would use them for just one fight and not several fights.
I always thought Margarito was an average C level fighter even when he was cheating. Now that he's wraps have been taken away he's even worse. You saw what Shane did to him. Nearly killed the guy with his right hand alone.
Margarito in his prime would still get his ass kicked by Pacquiao. Bad style match up for him.
when i watch margarito, his hands/punches looks slowmo to me...i dunno, but with pac that would be a big no-no, he should work on his speed. pac's speed, power punches and footwork will be pac's greatest advantages.
Do you realize the kickback Margo will get will make him not so dangerous , same boss , work out the economics and cost of back room insurance , Margo aint winning shiiiiiiiiiiiit against the Arums money machine , common sense says bet the bank on Pac .

Terribly analysis, man, no offense. Margarito has a very slim chance at pulling off any kind of win against Pacquiao and is absolutely a zero threat to Manny.
If Marg was as dangerous as you're saying, do you think Arum would have put Manny in with him? The answer is no - Manny hasn't taken a risky fight in 5 years, as he's the most protected fighter in boxing today.
Don't buy into the hype and let Arum and other Manny loving journalists put the idea into your mind that this is going to be a good fight - it most certainly is not.
Manny will beat up the human punching bag Margarito all night. And it's too bad for Margs that he has such a good chin, Manny will probably take 10 years off his life if the ref doesn't stop a late round barrage of punches.
Marg would be lucky to win once if they fought 100 times.
I posted this in a similar thread:
Its very possible (Margs will be Pac's toughest fight). Pac is up against a much larger, experienced man that can fight hard for 12 rounds. He is skilled against fast opponents and can cut off the ring. Margs will be willing to trade with Pacquiao to get in his body shots and uppercuts. If Margs chin is still solid, it could prove to be a very hard night for Pacquiao.
I agree. It's still easy to lean towards Pacquiao, though. I doubt Margarito isn't the same after the blows he took in the Cotto and Mosley fights. Then again, the lay-off could've helped him...I dunno.
Pacquiao should come in as the favorite regardless.
With the loaded wraps he was a beast , do doubt.
Without them he is just a little more than the average journeyman.

Marg is made to order for Pac....face first come forward!!!....Pac is gonna have a field day with his connect pct. :boxing:
lol at this people saying Margarito doesn't have a chance. I'm sure Pac will have a hard time landing punches upstair because of Margaritos height advantage. This spell trouble as Pac needs to land there repeatedly to slowdown the pressure from the bigger man.
It's not BS, sorry i just can't see floyd hurting pac no matter how i try to convince my self that floyd will hurt pacm floyd is just a pillow puncher for me and margarito is 10X dangerous than floyd.
The only thing dangerous about Margorito is his hand wraps. Look at his last two fights that he had where he def didn't use any illegal wraps to see just how dangerous he was, spare me the nonsense man. Margo is as good as his wraps. He couldn't even harm a bum in his last fight and now to hype this fight he is all of a sudden Pac's toughest opponent just like Clottey was billed as Pac's most dangerous fight one fight before lol come on man be real here. I understand that you are a fan and all but you have to see things clearly for what they are sometimes. Arum already fooled you guys with Clottey and immediately after with Margorito? Smh. "Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me." Or maybe you the George Bush version.
Stop the B.S. You can repeat that a million times and still won't be able to convince yourself that what your'e saying is true. Margorito is as dangerous as his hand wraps.

margarito is a bum and always has been,people only knew him because fighters like mayweather and mosley were supposedly scared of him and then when he finally beat a top fighter it ended up bein tainted and in question
