Would Margarito be able to do to Manny what he did to Miguel Cotto?

    Poor Miguel; I hope he has something left after that ass whoopin'.
    money marg is too big for pac.

    we'll see if cotto sustained any permanent ruinage in the jennings fight which cotto should win easily.

      you would think so, right?

      but no, Manny can fight 12 rounds he has stamania he has a high work rate. Manny will just need to hit and move, Margarito isnt quick and doesnt move alot in comparison to manny. All manny has to do is hit and move hit and move...his speed will tire and fustrate Margarito . Dont get me wrong this would be a very boring fight, the reason why it will never happen.

      But it can be done...Williams did it (he want fight him again...for clear reasons) and daniel santos beat him (it was a TD but Santos had him on points)

      you need stamania and a very good work rate to beat him, and maybe if you hit like a heaveyweight cause that dude has a iron jaw...

        you're confusing pac for pbf. pac is just too small and money marg is just too relentless.

          Pac is too short, and he wouldn't be able to hurt Margarito. Pacman has a strong body, but enough shots from Marg and he'll slow down ending up the victim of those rapid fire uppercuts he cracked Cotto with.

            All im saying is to beat Margarito you have to fight boring (but smart), you cant sit there and trade blows with Margarito (Like Manny and Marquez, Vasquez and Marquez, Ward and Gatti etc). You have to hit him and move, you can only win the fight on points.

                two different weights. i don't think pac would come out with the same gameplan though.

                  One thing is certain, Pacquiao would make Margarito look very slow. Do you think Margarito would try to cut the ring off, something Oscar completely failed to do. Oscar kept circling to his right trying to stay way from Pacquiao's right hook. His corner insisted that he circle left to cut off the ring, but Oscar just ignored Nacho and did his own thing. So many times, Manny would attack and jump out of range to Oscar's left side and since Oscar was already circling right, he was reaching just to try to counter Manny. Manny's style, speed and power had Oscar all messed up.

                      margarito is the most overrated fighter and everyone will see it on jan. 24.

                      People have been saying stuff like that since about 2005.

                      Its 2009 now, and Tony is still one of the best welters.
