Comments Thread For: Roach: Manny Pacquiao is Knocking Antonio Margarito Out

[Frank Ducketts]

If the fight is at 150, and they are fighting for a 154 lb title...I will lose all respect for PAc no matter if Margs agrees since Margs will take the fight like Cotto at a catch weight for the money.

Catchweight king vs the Plaster man! what a disgrace! and the other clown's on vacation! what a joke!

i agree the three stooges of boxing...

the plaster cheat, attempted murderer
ped milkshake drinking, catchweight king freak
and the multiple retiring vacation taking clown

the size does not matter, but it makes a little bit difficulty.

it's not difficult when the bigger fighter moves like a sloth compared to Pac, has no head movement, most likely inferior power because he can't use his trademark plaster fists. Not to mention his granite chain was turned into plywood by Mosley and he looked like **** against a somewhat decent journeyman.

I remember almost two years back everyone saying how crazy a Pac-Plasterito fight was and that it wasn't possible because Plaster boy was TOO big Pac. Now that he got exposed and is looking like a **** will Pac/Roach decide to fight him.

Plasterito's size won't mean **** and it won't be as competitive as some are making it out to be.

Pac will take little to no damage because Plasterito's "power" is non existent. He's going to be running circles around Plaster of Paris.

Anybody can knock out anyone in boxing. It's just a matter of catching the right shots. It would not be easy for pacman tho. If they hold the weight at 154 marg could be close to 170 for the fight and pac would still be the same weight during the weigh-in. That would easily be 20 pounds difference between the two fighters. The question is will the additional 20 pounds be enough to absorb some of pac's power e.g.: mayweather vs marquez, marquez caught floyd with some good shot but the weight difference between the two was enormous that allowed floyd to withstand marquez shots (remember marquez was able to rock pacman before when they fought in the same weight.) If the fight is held at 150 lbs then marg could only go as far as 160-162 lbs on fight night and that is just a difference of 12-10 lbs instead of 20 lbs. makes sense for the smaller pacman who would just be at 150 lbs the most during fight night. anyway jr middleweight is form 147.1 lbs up to 154 lbs. 150 is just right in the middle. and both fighters will surely bring it on! cheers.

It's bad enough that Pac is still deciding to fight at catch-weights but TO DO IT FOR A TITLE IS BULL****!.

Pac has done nothing to deserve a shot at the jr middleweight title, and to top it off, he doesn't want to fight or let his "opponent" fight at the full 154 weigh limit for it.

Only the *******s are okay with this fight and see Pac as doing nothing wrong by choosing to feed boxings fans this ****ty fight.

I'm still going to watch the fight (one sided) because it will be fun watching Plasterito get pummeled by little Pac. I'm sure Cotto is thinking the same.

I'm just refusing to order this **** fight on PPV because it's not a quality fight worthy of $55.95

it's worth a 3 dollar stream though.

Pacquiao vs Margarito

are you guys ******? Pacquiao is not going to knock out Margarito and he does not hit harder than Mosley! Manny Pacquiao is not impossible to hit as you saw in the Cotto fight! They're going to trade and they're both going to catch each other because for the first time Pacquiao is going to be fighting someone who actually fights back! This is not Hatton , Cotto , or a drained De La Hoya! he couldn't pull the trigger on De La Hoya and he pretends like he didn't want to finish Cotto when truly he couldn't! It took him 9 rounds to finish David Diaz are you kidding me? he couldn't even put him down early like Morales! All im saying is give Margarito a chance , he might be slow but he likes to trade shots with fighters and one Manny Pacquiao shot wont be enough to knock Margarito out! Margarito lost to Mosley because he expected Mosley to box him like Mosley did with Cotto and not to mention he was very drained from making weight , i mean you could even see it in his face and body! Also Mosley did alot of holding in that fight which weakened Margarito which im sure Pacquiao won't do!

So with that said i pick Margarito to win by KO in the late rounds maybe the 10th or 11th round!

of course hel knock him out, hes fighting a cheater who hasnt face top opposition in a year and whos only defense to stoppin punches is with his face. big deal, nobody should be shocked to see the guy with no defense get knocked out.

i will only give props if manny whoops him worse than mosley did, thats not an easy task, mosley barb-b-q'd him.... lets see

by the time plasterman throws 1 punch he will eat 7.. yeah he got a strong chin but he no longer has his trademark weapon : plaster...

u take his biggest weapon away, and his confidence is gone and will suffer physically.

pac by 7-8th round demolition. . .

i actually remember roach being asked right after the de la hoya fight if he wanted pac to fight margo, who at the time was the strongest mexican fighter at welterweight, and roach said, "we're not that crazy". it was a smart move, pac was just coming up from lightweight and there was good money to be made from the hatton fight instead. i also get the sense that arum and golden boy wanted to work together while they still could, cause they suspected that the problems would come back sooner or later. so hatton was the best choice.

but i find it funny that everyone uses people's trash talk against them after a fight. roach says, "de la hoya is nothing!" and people call him crazy, then pac beats him, and then people say, "no big deal, de la hoya was crap anyway, even freddie said so".

now freddie says "mayweather is the easiest fight". everyone knows that's crazy, probably even freddie knows it's bull. but if pac beats floyd, what are yall gonna say? "i knew floyd was crap all the time, even freddie said so. pac's still ducking williams and martinez!"

get over your ****in selves

i promise u that if Manny beat him ,i would not be one of those people saying that Floyd was crap! I would be absolutely flabergasted! I just cannot envision a sinario where Manny could beat Floyd. I just think stylistically, Floyd would be a nightmare for an over agressive Manny> but lets not get into that. There is no Manny vs. Floyd fight on the horizon.

Right right,just like Pacquiao was gonnna knock out Clottey right.maybe he doesn't remember that punching up doesn't have the same affect as if your punching down.unless they found a way for Pacquiao to be taller then Margarito on fight night,I strongly doubt that will happen.I do see Pacquiao on his ass for the first time in a long time by the way.

[SceneSpectator!]

tell us something we don't know......margo is a shot fighter who will be drained and pac will be roided up as usual. anything less than a ko from the ***** named pacroid will prove how overrated he is.

pacman could not ko anyone on his path and you're right on this, but it would not be surprising when he KO'd marg somewhere from the first to the last round. this is pac afterall
