"I am predicting a knockout inside of three rounds but don't be surprised if we get him in the first," Roach told Reuters on Thursday. "Margarito's a slow starter and we're going to take advantage of that."

People talk alot of crap about Cotto taking a knee and getting beat down by Cheato but the fact is Cotto was beating the crap out of Cheato for half the fight and pretty easy.
Cotto was hitting Cheato at will, his only problem was he was back peddling while doing it. I believe Mosley saw how easy it was to hit Cheato and thats why Mosley laid in on his punches and why he destroyed Cheato. I believe Pac will do a little of both backpedaling punching and laying in on them..
Why? Because he is fast enough and he can. Whatever happens I predict Cheato will have the worst and most bloody face we have ever seen on him.
P.S. Cheato smiled alot in the Cotto fight, Smiled even more while Shane beat him up,with Pac he will be doing alot of smiling.
:rofl:
I don't think Pacquiao will blow Margarito out in three...but that's just me.
Roach predicted that Hatton would last 3 rounds, and I could've understood that prediction based on Hatton's aggressiveness. He swung wildly off-balance and would get sharply countered (such as the first as knockdown in that fight-right hook counter over Hatton's left, Pacquiao ducks, Hatton falls down looking like an amateur). Margarito provides countering opportunities because he doesn't have a lot of speed, but he's more controlled with his punches, and his chin and weight difference should allow him to take some punishment before (and if) he breaks down.
I think Pacquiao beats him by decision, but that's just me.
If Margarito really is the Mexican warrior he claims to be, and he goes in with that "do or die" attitude, he'll make Puas and Iceta proud by getting knocked out while in the fight. :sombrero:
He'll make the rest of boxing fans happy because it'll be another highlight reel KO. Yay Manny!
The quicker they get Margarito out of there the better. I don't want Manny to be going into the later rounds against a bigger guy like Margarito. At first I wanted Margarito to just take a butt whooping for a long time before being stopped, but thats very risky when Margarito probably will out weigh Manny by 15-20 pounds fight night. No one knows how much Margarito may balloon up to.
Nah I disagree. Pac has been wayy too good for his last 5-6 opponents, I wanna see him in a real tear up and see how he does against a bigger guy in that situation. I have faith in him though, I'm predicting a 9th round stoppage in Pacmans favour.
Roach goes from walking around at 2am worried because his fighter isn't where he needs to be...... to knocking out Margarito in 3 rounds... in a matter of 5 days.
Honestly............ stfu Roach.
That's who he is Reed...he is very up and down.

Boy whats all this talk about knockouts being thrown about? Margarito is going to ko pac, pac is going to ko margarito.
Is there no chance this will go the distance?

I keep sayin' this....the speed difference in this one is crazy....you dont need to know physics to see this :lol1: :fing02:
Wouldn't be surprised if Margs gets put down in the 1st, since he doesn't think Pacquiao has the power.
agreed why does every1 underestimate Pacs power lol?

Roach must have showed Pac the video of Cheato and Rios making fun of Roach.....Its on now.
I think that's the problem with most of the guys Pac fights. They think "Ohhhh, Marquez was never knocked out, this other guy wasn't knocked out. So how can I get knocked out?"
Remember, speed kills but speed and power destroy.
I like that, speed and power destroy...
We'll see how the fight pans out, hope it will be a war..
I don't want to pay to see a 3 rounder unless it's a Hatton style KO, highly unlikely.

Agree.
Pac has put on pure muscle on his body while going up in weight.
