    All Pac's opponents were too big for him....excluding JMM, MAB and other else.

      1. Margarito does not even USE his height.

      2. Clottey weighed at least 165.



      So no excuses. That is all.
      Physically he is the bigger man, fighting at a higher weight all his career and the Pac camp did not want to fight Foreman cause his size.

      But boxing is not decided on size, it does help but skills and ability it what gets it done

        he poses some risks, but he's not too 'big,' and big don't automatically translate to height little man, Hatton was considered bigger than Pac, even though they're like the same height.

        Clottey & Margarito couldn't be more different, when the last time you watched them fight?

        And I don't know what anybody told you personally, but some people actually believe in Margarito, so they're entitled to their opinion, are they not?

          Because he is.

          If Manny wins it's damn impressive!

            I can't imagine Margarito going the distance with Williams, or
            defeating Martinez and Cintron twice if he is shorter.

            Hell yes, height makes a difference.

              The only way Margarito wins this fight is if he is finally the guy that's just too big for Pacquiao. Margarito is the biggest guy Pac has ever fought, not sure what bringing up Clottey has to do with anything, and stylistically he's no problem for Pac.

              So if he loses, it will be because Pac couldn't handle the size. Not an excuse, just a fact.

                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!!!

                  What does that even mean? How would he be too big for Pac?

                  Clottey weighed atleast 165 pounds? And Marg doesnt even use his height so I dont get how if Pac loses its based on size. It doesnt make sense to me.

                    Saying height makes absolutely no difference
                    is total BS.

                      Because the way Margarito fights, the only way he wins is if Pac can't hurt him and Margarito wears him down with his size. You're acting like Pac has fought someone as big as Margarito before, and this is nothing new. You keep bringing up Clottey like Clottey is as big as Margarito, when he isn't.

                      Stylistically Margarito has no shot. Talent and skillwise Margarito has no shot. So the only way he wins is pressing forward, and Pac being unable to do anything about it because he can't hurt Margarito or handle his size.

                      Again, not an excuse, it's just a fact. That's the only way Margarito wins this fight.
