why would Manny accept a Margarito fight?

[WayOfTheWarrior]

I don't get Manny is the nice guy who always respects the commissions rules and relegations so why would he fight a suspended fighter who tried to assault his last opponent and more then likely cheated before?
even Roch called it "attempted murder" so why would Manny pacquiao even entertain the idea of giving this guy a payday
the guy doesn't have any belts so it would be for a vacant belt any way and his biggest win was 2 years ago

its seem like it goes against Manny's persona

you dont understand the ways of a true warrior.

[DontHitMyNuts]

Margs aint gettin millions or even close to a decent payday because pac's probably gonna 80-20 it

plus it won't sell that highPPV

plus arum's getting a bigger cut of that purse

at least we know he's getting a beatdown / and possibly pac ending his career for good.

dude maybe pac wants to avenge cotto. maybe he wants to murder marg inside the ring for cotto.

[Phil Ivey]

Errr.. Arum calls the shot? Pac can say no if he wants... what can Arum do? Let him off? ROFL. Arum knows that Pac is his prized possession and would probably give him a foot massage if Pac asked for it. A

No he doesn't, Boxing fans are fooled into thinking otherwise. If Pacquiao declined to face Margarito, Arum wouldn't be able to move. Promoters work for the fighter.

I hope Manny wakes up and tells Bob NO. Manny can fight anybody not named Margarito and I will gladly watch live or on PPV. If the fight happens I will boycott the fight. I believe alot of other fans would do the same.

yeah a true warrior who tries to load his gloves against a 36 year old boxer that is coming off a loss

Pacman (or Arum?) wants to know who is better of the only fighters who beat Cotto.

[KickAzz]

pac just fights who arum puts in front of him

[Chups]

I just hope this fight doesn't happen.

Arum gave him only two options and that was Cotto or Margarito. Pacquiao picked Margarito.

Although I preferred Bradley, Berto or Williams. Out of the options Pacquiao had presented to him, I believe he went with the right choice.

He already beat Cotto pretty badly, fighting him again would not be an interesting fight whatsoever. Now Margarito is a cheater and can't even get his license in the US and is being rewarded with a big pay check. But for the options that were presented to him, Pacquiao made the right choice. This is a fight no body has seen before, Margarito stopped Cotto, and the fight will be in Mexico where it will sell a lot. So they have a stoppage win over a common opponent.

If my pops buys this fight i'll watch it. But unlike other PPV fights where I ask him to buy it and tell him it will be a good fight, I won't do it this time. Pacquiao vs Clottey was a letdown and shouldn't have been a PPV fight and my pops payed 65 bucks for the HD version. I'll just read the results on Sunday morning Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Punishes Margarito; Stops him In 10
