Pac won't fight the same way against Margarito or Mayweather. It's clear the tactics were be relentless in order to prevent Clottey from settling and opening up from his defence. And it worked.
Look at how easy Pacquiao gets hit...

Did pac get hit? Yes, did Pac land on Clottey almost every time he finally opened up..you bet! Sure there were plenty of well earned shots (primarily the strait right) but for the most part Pac was trying to get Clottey to open up so he can do some real damage after working the body.Comment

Yeah,it's boxing genius,you take punches.Do you think they will want to fight Margarito next? Lets remember Margarito is even a bigger WW than Clottey is, he's very durable like Clottey and throws allot of punches. Wraps or not, Margarito never makes it an easy fight for any opponent. If Floyd vs Pacquiao doesn't happen next for Pacquiao he might as well retire or go back to 140 imo. Margarito may not win but every time Pacquiao fights he gets hit more and more... Greedy Arum doesn't care for Pacquiao, i've said it first!
Clottey only throws when he sees a hole,that's why he connects always.
Pacquiao showed some good head movement in my opinion,no great but good.
Of course Manny ain't Nicolino Locche or Pepp,but he ain't Ricky "Hittable" Hatton or Gatti.
Margo would give more problems to Pac than Clottey and Cotto.I totally agree.
Margo's size,uppercuts and work rate is a problem for Manny,and Margo has the power to hurt Manny unlike Josh.
I would love to see the midget against the WW giant.
This fight would be entertaining.
Arum was wrong to pick Clottey,cuz Clottey was going to make it a one sided bore fest.
Margo vs Manny is a war.Comment

I think after the first few rounds Paq had taken a few clean shots from Clottey and knew Clottey couldnt hurt him with one punch, Cotto has better one punch power than Clottey and couldnt really hurt Paq. Paq was willing to take a few shots to give himself opportunities to counter and score, take one, land three. Yes, if he fights Floyd, he will get hit. However, Floyd will not even be as agressive as Clottey was (if you can call that agressive), and certainly will not land with any more athourity than Clottey did.Do you think they will want to fight Margarito next?
