Did Any Of You Expect Margarito to Win?

I just didint see any reason Margarito would win unless he could levee a body shot and get lucky. Hes just too slow and his lack of technique and headmovement would render him virtually useless. In his last fight in mexico you could see that he had slowed down considerably and his inability to do much else other than throw wide looping shots was eventually going to catch up to him if his chin cant take the punishment. Fact is i didint see any way shape or form Pac would lose. I just couldnt see it outside of a perfect shot. Pac has got to fight somebody who isnt cannon fodder at this point, i almost got tempted to order but a stream was good enough, i just cant see myself paying for anything outside of a competitive match, be it mayweather or anyone else. Somethings got to give on these pathetic mismatches of guys who stand flatfooted and wait to be pummled for millions.

This is about as good as I expected him to do. I did not expect Pacquiao to look so good though

i'm not really into the technical side of boxing but when pac was hit by an uppercut to the body (was it round 4?), i thought tony could go all the way. if that was a bigger fighter than pac, where in he'd absorb the full torque of an uppercut, not midway like how pac was hit, that could've down pacquiao.

i called it from the jump, pac would win a hard fought UD. marg was tailor made for pac, he was just big... i knew after seeing the shane fight, margs had no chance. margs defense was always garbage, he always been slow, and never been a really sharp puncher, just had balls. i knew this beating was comming because thats what happens when you fight manny and use your face for defense... i also believed margo would land some good punches and he did hurt pac

No, everyone knew Pac was going to brutalize him. What were the odds in Vegas before the "bad camp" stories started coming out? Margarito is an unskilled thug. His only skill is toughness.

He was paying close to 6 to 1. The odds accurately reflected what happened.

I thought Pacquiao would win by UD. But after watching the fight i think he could have knocked marg out if he had gone back to the body, and he could have definitely punished him in the 12th.

The "distractions" where the only thing that would help Marg beat Pacquiao

Marg too slow, too flat footed, no head movement, no defense... in common with all the 5 fighters he (Pacquiao) has fought recently. Zombies, punching bags, demolished, emotionally destroyed fighters... 165 lbs vs 148 lbs.... I knew pac would win but the size advantage made me nervous

nahh ive called it since day one, a repeat of the margarito.mosely fight and a repeat of the pac/dlh fight. exactly what happened. this victory looks so big because casual fans typically dont kno any better. but its only an ok win for someone of pac's level

I didn't know what to expect because I didn't know how margarita is like without loaded gloves. Well we know the answer to that now

he always had a puncher's chance but it seemed as if tony didn't have any strength like he has in his fights with cotto, cintron, and others---manny looked more powerful---of course i didn't pick tony to win--no way in hell----i don't know who really gave tony a chance to win besides a puncher's chance--tony didn't pressure manny like he has in the past--that's due to manny though--he moved good for his type of movement---

I had Pacquiao winning but every time Marg trapped him on the ropes, I was afraid Pacquiao was gonna get hit with something big. I thought the fight was pretty intense all the way up to the later rounds even though it was a shutout.

I expected a UD Win for Pac. Margs is to slow and punches too wide.

I thought Marg wudda been in the fight a little early but not really...I knew he was slow as shyt but I thought he would throw combinations all over the place, just to lay a glove on Pac... I expected an ass whipping...not as bad as it was but I did...

I called it from the start. I said it would be like Pac/Clottey except his chin would be blocking most of the punches. Definitely closer than Pac/Clottey (that body shot... uh-oh), but same type of thing

He looked about as good as I thought he could look. I gave him 2 rounds (though I certainly wouldn't argue against a shutout) and Pac said he hurt him. Not surprised it went 12 and I think Marg will get some more decent fights out of this...

Nope. As you will see from every last one of my posts about this fight, "Manny destroys Margarito". Manny looked great, but what was anyone expecting? The only thing that shocked me was that it went the distance. Right with you there !! Stop the fight, the corner was stupid and the ref was stupid to let it go that far. We know Margs a warrior but the fact is you don't want a fighter to be hurt in the long term, have to think about your family, wife and kids. Much respect to Pac who showed mercy in the final round. My prediction was wrong but the fight went exactly as I thought.

No. Though i will say that uncle bobby/ roach made me believe that he stood a chance. not surprised at all.

Marg too slow, too flat footed, no head movement, no defense... in common with all the 5 fighters he (Pacquiao) has fought recently. Zombies, punching bags, demolished, emotionally destroyed fighters... In all honesty, anybody with good boxing knowledge knew this fight was garbage since day one. Still cant believe that B- level fighter ( and cheater ) got a big payday. And Im ****ing tired to see Pac vs opponent with no footwork at all. Believe me footwork is one of the most important part of boxing, and Roach is only taking opponent that don't know how to move and are robots.
