Pacquiao-Margarito tale of the tape.

[jonesy]

Your supporting a cheater in Margarito. and you clearly havent watched Margarito in his recent fight. Looks like **** to me. Hes going tobe a punching bag for Pacquiao. This is the fight where Margarito decides to retire.

LOL!! Marg clowned that guy for 12 rounds, and ur calling him a punching bag haha that guy was getting so madd cos he couldnt hit him lol U dont know shit Keep reading biased posts on forums to base your opinions

[jonesy]

Physically a mismatch, but Pacquiao has the edge in skill, speed and he has the fitness to pull it off.

dudes clearly dont know about tony, this guy is the fittest boxer around lol

Margarito couldn't keep up with Mosleys faded hands, how will he be able to even be competitive with Pacquiao?

This is a clear mismatch stylistically, especially given the big questions regarding Margaritos past.

Manny needs to fight a guy with good footwork, atleast decent speed and good defence.

This is a sick fight!! I dont know what all these boxingscene ******s are going on about calling this a disgrace and a shit fight. After floyd marg's the next biggest threat to pac - fact. These noob's actin like they only seen the mosely fight. Marg's a 3 time world champion and throws more punches than anyone else - again fact. This is going to be an all out war while it lasts, this is great for boxing. Cats bitchin like they wanna see one of floyds wwe fights where it's all choreographed and you already know what's gonna happen. Ya'll gonna look dumber than you do already when this turns out to be a good fight.

ps. If it's a disgrace dont bother supporting or fucking watching it!

this would be a good to great action fight, only thing I dont think it is the right fight at this time, at this point in time Marg has not earned the shot for Goldmine Pacquiao Lottery, IMHO this is high risk low reward fight for Manny...

Listen man. Margarito HAS earned it.

A decade's worth of hard work and dedication to the sport does not get erased by one loss to a future HOF fighter.

Furthermore, Margarito put in some of the best work of any WW by fighting everyone in one of the best periods in the WW division in recent history.

He fought everyone who was worth fighting win or lose except Floyd who ducked him.

So don't go getting all self righteous on me about being undeserving when Pacquiao lost to Morales, lost to JMM 2x and he still gets chances at big fights.

Thats straight up hypocritical.

The reason JMM, Morales, Pac, Cotto and Margarito always get second and third chances in the sport is because they fight for the fans and the fans are forgiving of losses if they know you're putting in an effort for them.

no its not
another stiff with 0 zero defense no kind of head movement
pacman is going to knock him out

[gapo]

Pacquiao is fighting someone mayweather did not wanna have to do anything with. He retired than facing margacheato.

Looking at the tale of the tape Manny passed up the fight with Yuri Foreman because of his height/reach Margarito is bigger.

pacquiao didn't turn down the foreman fight because he was scared of foreman's size.

he did that interview in filipino not english.

it got lost in translation and taken out of context.


what he really said was "with foreman's size (to go with his style) , he thought foreman would be a boring fight for the fans."

it wasn't that he thought he would lose to yuri. he thought it'd be boring for the fans.

Honestly though... only a gullible child would ever believe Pacquiao was scared of a rabbi who was as feather fisted as the guido. I like Yuri, but the people who actually believe such non-sense need to be lobotomized.

That happens a lot man. Its been plaguing Margarito with the wrap bull**** because lazy **** "journalists" like Iole and Rafael don't bother properly translating what the man is saying.
