Comments Thread For: Pacquiao vs Margarito is Set For 11/13, Mexico or Vegas

[iloveboxing2]

It is hard to believe that this this fight is actually taking place..

...I always thought Margarito is one tough guy with or w/o a loaded gloves but only when he catches his opponent, he is a also a great fighter but lacks skills that he can actually utilize to beat Pac. Pac will just circle around him just like the Oscar/Pac fight but better, Pac will systematically chop this tree down. I give Marg a slight chance since he rarely gasses out.
I give Pac alot of credit for fighting tough fighters, Pacfans will definitely be happy to see him fight again this year, I still prefer to see Pac fight at no catch weight but then again he needs it against bigger foe. Pacs next 2 fights should be against Alexander or Bradley.

He will never win against Pacquiao. Without those wraps, Margaracheato has no power. Very easy fight for Pacquaio. Margaracheato comes straight at you and Pacquiao will kill him. Very useless fight also. Not watching it even if they paid me to watch it.

I think its highly possible he could. Its about styles. Mosley beat Margs with his power and clinching. Pac doesn't hit as hard as Mosley and I don't see him clinching Margarito. Plus Margs breaks his opponents down so it doesn't matter that he doesn't have a ton of power. He has enough and Pac isn't known for defense although it may be getting better. It was never proven that his win over Cotto involved cheating (and assuming so could be a mistake) and if Pac and his team aren't careful, it could unfortunately look like the Marg-Cotto fight all over again. Pac needs to be smart and at his best to win.

TOP RANK PPV PRESENTS: CHEATERS FURY!!! LOL jk.

anyways, whats bob arum saying marg only knows how to fight 1 way and thats to move forward? last time i checked, marg was running from his opponent when he realized he couldn't put a dent on him!

It could be fight of the decade!

I got a boner right now....

What a disgrace. This is why no one cares about boxing anymore. Piece of crap sport.

[ColWallace]

Well I hope they all have a great time but I won't be watching it. **** you Bob Arum.

[ThePunchingBag]

**** Pacquiao.

I'm off the bandwagon.

Boxing has lost it's shine.

Now I'll have to jump on the JCC Jr., Gamboa and Rigondeaux bandwagon.

Wait a second? Pacquiao turned down a possible fight with Yuri Foreman in favor of Joshua Clottey because he thought Foreman was "too big" and now he declines a rematch with Cotto to fight his disgraced rival Margarito. If he's gonna move up another weight class, why not fight Paul Williams or Sergio Martinez? Those fights would at least more lucrative in my opinion.

It's all about keeping the money in the community. The TR community.

Not very many are giving Margo a chance in beating Manny. Margo has not improved in the speed and defense dept. He'll be there to hit all night long.

But, stranger things have happened.

[cubano11]

This will be a one sided beat down. Manny will pepper the living **** of Margarito going in and out. Margarito will look like a clown in the ring. His face will look worst than Cotto's.

It better be at full 154. Because it will be sad if it is at a catchweight fro a vacant belt,avnd they dont even deserve to be ranked eithe

The same way i see Gamboa-Lopez

Not for Bob Arum
