I'm not saying he'll win but I see a lot of people saying it'll be a one-sided beat down and I'm not so sure. I want Pacquiao to win but this is a very risky fight I feel.
Margarito has excellent timing and will go after Pac and hit anywhere he can, especially the body. We haven't seen Pac tested against an opponent like this. Mosley beat Margs using power shots and clinching. Pac doesn't hit as hard as Mosley and I'm not sure he'll clinch Margarito. I don't know if Pacquiao can stop Margarito in his tracks like Mosley did. He may have to hit and run which could get very tiring under Marg's pressure. This could look like the Margs-Cotto fight; If Margarito still has a great chin then Pac will have to be very careful and needs to be at his best.
