    1. Margarito does not even USE his height.

    2. Clottey weighed at least 165.



    So no excuses. That is all.
    the usual boxing hype

    saying it will pay off if Pac wins
    and will serve as an excuse if he loses

      Ordinarily Marg would be too big for him but even though Pac is a natural LW he is far from an ordinary one.

          Yes but Oscar weighed a lot less than Margo will, fight night.

          It's not just that Margo is bigger, its that Manny will try to move up to that weight as well. So that can affect him as well in areas such as punch speed, movement, taking a punch and stamina.

          These are all questions that will be answered fight night. At this point in time, these are unknowns because Manny is chartering unknown territory and one can only speculate.

          If Manny loses, it may be so obvious that we can all agree to the cause of Manny's defeat .... but I doubt that very much (that we all agree).

            Funny that many of the Floyd fans were calling this a too easy victory for Manny to the point that they shouldn't even fight. A total discredit of a fight. An obvious win for Manny

            Now the same Floyd fans are telling Manny fans to not make excuses if Manny loses.

            Please make up your mind. Is Manny's win clear cut and Margo has no chance to win or do you now think Margo will win this one?

            Floyd fans, you can't have it both ways!!!

              Prime for prime, Pac will not lose to Margarito if they are both at the same height and the same weight during the actual fight. Here's my example.

              A few minutes during the actual fight:

              Lets say the both weighed in at 147 and both the same 5'6" in height. Do you think Marg will win base on his skills, physical and other attributes against Pac? Honestly your answer is a big no. So its safe to say if Marg win because of his size and that is a fact. Pac wins against bigger opponents because of his speed. You put him against very good bigger opponents equaling his speed, he will lose badly. Fortunately, there is only one guy who can mach his speed in this weight classes but he rather on vacation than fighting Pac.

                Well, that's the thing. They have been saying for months now that Manny is superior to Margo in all facets of the game.

                So the question to a Floyd fan, what do they think the reason that Manny loses to Margo, if most of you thought that Margo had no chance to win this?

                  dude...ur not making sense. i would think he means if pac loses to marg then its not because margs was bigger. this is a fight pac definitely should win. margs is not too big for him. if pac fights the way he did against dlh or cotto, he wins. if hes taking his training in slight as ther reports "suggests"( which is probably bull**** to dehype pac, which in turn would make the fight look much more palatable), then pac might just lose to a hungrier margarito.

                      people are still talking about pac being a small fighter, really and why?

                      if he is fighting at a higher weight and fighting nobodys and getting paid good money, then if he stayed at lightweight he could have fought marquez who is somebody (win or lose) and fight other nobodys at lightweight and make good money. . . yet pac is a lightweight fighting no name fighters who only hardcore boxing fan know, and yet he's fighting at welterweight cause he wants too? no, its because pac is at a natural weight where he's comfortable at

                      pac fans don't worry marg is not going to be strong in this fight, pac will be as strong as marg or stronger, the height difference wont be much, and if it is it because pac bends at the knees more only thing pac fans have to worry about is if marg has keep his strength at 150 if so, pac is in trouble, but i doubt so
