    Manny Pacquiao's Strategy for Margarito

    What do you think Pac will do in this fight? Will he be more fluid like he was in the Morales rematches moving in and out? Will he brawl like he did with Hatton? Or will he attempt to emulate Mosley's clinching?

    I personally think Roach has prepared Pac to stand in front of Margarito and brawl. I think Pac walks through Margarito (late KO if Margs comes in like he did against Garcia, or UD if Margs comes in top shape), but not without getting some damage.

    On the flipside. What do you guys think Robert has prepared Margs to do? Do you guys think he will employ more boxing like in the Garcia match? Or do you think they are preparing Margs to do what he does best volume punch?

    For Marg I think it would be dumb to try to box with Pacquiao. I'm just not sure what his best strategy would be....

    Pac is going to mix his combo's body/head and consistently move out of range for Margarito to close the distance.

    Margarito on the other hand will try his up most to turn this in to a phone booth fight....

      I've read that they'll be using the same style as they did fighting Oscar which all about speed, speed, and more speed.

        I imagine he will fight like he did with Oscar and jump in and out and land whatever the hell he wants, the one thing that really impresses me about Pacqiauo is his ability to get in and out so quickly, its very impressive.

        If Margarito trys to box with Pacqiauo he may aswell just take the TKO L now and save the embarasment.

          Margarito's style is tailor made for Manny, He will walk into Mannys shots,
          I supsect Manny will do an IN-OUT job for the first few rounds, then later as the fight goes on start to mix it up abit and maybe go to the body.

          Either way Mannys speed will be far too much for Margarito

            As easy as it is to hit Tony I can't see them going wrong with that strategy.

              To punch him in the face, repeatedly.

                I've been watching some tape on Tony and I can already tell you that they are gonna attack the body a lot in this fight. Also I notice when you step back and get out of his range, Tony lunges forward and walks right into his opponent right hook.

                I also see a lot of side to side movement because Tony is most effective when he plants his feet and throws punches in bunches. Pacquiao's movement will actually set Pacquiao up to land huge shots on Tony.
