Comments Thread For: Arum: Margarito Will Be Pacquiao's Toughest Fight

[spoonwars]

He will be nowhere near as competitive as Cotto.

Cotto won 2 rounds....and was very competitive in 3 more.

Margarito will not be remotely competitive for one second of the fight. There is no question.

He meant Marg would eat leather for all rounds in exciting fashion, unlike Cotto on the bicycle. Marg might get lucky with a wild one though.

Anyone ever notice how oftern Ronnie misuses the phrase "At the same time"? I'd take the time to explain it to him, but something tells me he doesn't take feedback from the forum.

Antonio Margarito is a solid opponent for Manny Pacquiao. He's a three time welterweight champion with a load of experience versus top level talent (Sergio Martinez, Kermit Cintron, Paul Williams, Miguel Cotto, & Shane Mosley).

While I believe he's past it based on his last fight, did we not think the same thing about Mosely after his fight with Mayorga?

I'm taking Manny by a unanimous decision, but the size difference between the two is reason for concern. If Margarito's chin holds up, he could very well walk Manny down.

If by "walk Manny down", you mean "get his face disfigured beyond recognition" then I agree with you.

I don't see how these 2 are fighting for a title at 154lbs. When there are so many deserving fighters in this division!!!

I don't think he was competitive in 3 more. Maybe 2 but 3, at least not to me.


You think Pac is some sort of defensive genius. He gets hit too easy by guys that are just as slow as Margarito.
