yes pac is heavy handed. he isn't a one-punch KO guy (except with Hatton and Lebwaba and Lucero and... anyways). but he's coming into this fight very light and margarito will be coming into this fight very big. of course we know pac is gonna light margarito up. of course we know margarito will land a fair share of punches (cotto landed and clottey landed). but we also know margarito is a tough guy. he took a one-sided beating from mosley for a long time before he got stopped.
Now, I'm not asking you who's gonna win, or your fight prediction, or whatever... I'm asking you, based on what we know today about the weights, can pac this light be heavy handed enough to stop a margarito this big?
personally, I don't think he can. after the weigh in,
vote and discuss
I think he could've stopped him from the 10th round on.
don't think so. marg was still coming forward regardless. pac had him hurt only once and he was landing the same shots that put down ricky hatton and cotto.
Margarito would only throw jabs from that round on.
doesn't matter, he was still throwing so the fight wasn't gonna get stopped.
Did you see his face?
yeah, the ref or the doc or marg's corner should've stopped the fight. marg was taking big shots, but I knew pac wasn't gonna get a spectacular stoppage.
Wow he looked just as bad if not worse than Cotto
nah man, it was way worse than cotto's, if i remember correctly.
Yeah, he was pretty close, though.
Crazy performance.
true... but I knew marg was gonna be able to take the punishment, especially coming into the fight at 165 lbs.
I told you muthafukkers.

I dont think so, but anything can happen. I have seen stranger incidents in the ring. But, I do think Margarito is a sincere challenge for Pac, and he will definitely feel the fight after the fact, unlike any other. I think Pac will get hurt, but I also feel he will win. He has too many advantages but it will be very close. I wouldnt be surprised if either guy won.
everybody keeps fuukking saying tony aint got no defense ....rember the williams fight he had great defense in that fight...verey underrated i think ...he has defense when he wants to use it but when he wants to me macho he uses his chin.
You obviously didnt watch Marg-Williams

I think he weighed 145 for Clottey. I think this fight is pretty much Pac from Clottey fight vs Marg from Cotto fight.
Well I mean, how much did Pacquiao rehydrate on fight night against Clottey?
A few extra lbs wouldn't make that much difference to his KO power, it might have made it worse because it would slow him down. You can only add so much weight before the drawbacks start outweighing the benefits.
He can TKO him with overwhelming punches. He's got the speed to do it.
KO? very little chance at this point, especially with Margarito's chin.
Most likely a UD or late TKO.
he might...imo he's either going to beat tony up en route to a decision or rtd late
or tko him late putting him down while he's off balance and barraging him with punches en route to a stoppage

I think that Pacquiao would weigh more than 148. How much did Pacquiao weigh fight night against Clottey?
