Comments Thread For: Margarito: I Have Full Confidence I'll Beat Pacquiao

[El Talegon]

You just compared Cotto's hand-speed/foot-work to Pacquiaos.

Cotto and Pacquiao don't fight alike in anyway shape or form. And Pacquiao has never had problems with brawlers, Margarito isn't turning into floyd mayweather jr. over night.

I understand that Pacquio's speed is not compared to Cottos, no one is doubting that and who said i was comparing both?. Im just saying that Margarito will KO Pacquiao, and Pacquiao does have issues with brawlers, what do u think Morales and Marquez are. Corley landed some hits on Pacquiao and Margarito will land some and the ones that land will HURT pacquiao BAD.

But there was evidence that he used plaster before the Mosley fight. But, according to some boxing scribes just the su****ion of using, is close enough for judgement (Pacquiao using PED's). The difference b/w Pacquiao and PED's and Margo's "PLASTER-HANDS" - proof that Margo got caught with "Plaster" in his hands before the Mosley fight. Pacquiao has never been tested positive in all of his boxing career. Enough said!

Innocent until proven guilty. They did not find anything in the Cotto fight. And it was not plaster it was old gauze. I don't think Pac is on anything he's just an incredible athlete. With that being said I still stick to my prediction. Margarito by KO. Hey that's a bad ass Pacquiao avatar.

pac also is very susceptible to uppercuts and i dont see that changing in 1 fight to the next , margs will land that uppercut pac has no defense for that just like margs has no defense for pacs speed. margaritos best punch is the uppercut and bodyshots both of which have hurt pac in the past. pacman cant take it to the body, it should be a war hopefully margs isnt shot.

Pac can't take it to the body? Did you see Pac fight the best body puncher in the WW division, that being Cotto? Pac stood on the ropes for a good 60seconds letting Cotto wail-at-him and took it...with a smile!!! Don't tell me Pac can't take a bodyshot...remember Pacquiao allowed Cotto to swing him at his body...Cotto had a hard time trying to find Pacquiao in the middle of the ring. If Pacuqiao can take Cotto without flinching, I do believe Pacquiao has a chance to weather what the tornado has for him. Also, Margo hasn't faced anyone as fast as Pacquiao in his boxing career. Let alone, a boxer that had knocked Cotto down cleanly twice with either hand.

to his credit manny is the most fun to watch and is a great fighter but he needs to fight the top guys, if he did that hed sell just as many if not more ppvs, than he would facing losers, the mayweather fight being slated as the richest in boxing history proves that. I know freddie , arum and the philipines dont want their gravy train to ever end , but we the FIGHT fans deserve our moneys worth, almost pre-determined fights dont cut it for 60$.

i put zero stock in the cotto win, which is pacs signature win , coto is shot, clottey was robbed, in order to set up the cotto pac fight, jmm hurt pac to the body, his opponents havent exploited that because theyre scared. cotto wouldnt have been a 5 to 1 underdog in the manny fight if he wasnt shot.pac is fast margs has a tremendous size reach and punishment absorbing advantage i hope margs wins but ill be happy with a competetive fight.

Old gauze, in the Mosley fight? Are you serious? Those gauze had traces of sulfur on them, proven by laboratory testing. Sulfur is a key component in Palster of Paris. Maybe your not up to current events, but it was proven in court that Margarito had Plaster of Paris in his gloves before the Mosley fight.

Bro you said it yourself...traces. If there were traces why wasn't plaster of paris found? Hey you believe that Margarito was loading before the Mosley fight and that's your opinion, but I can honestly say I don't believe that. Now with that being said I still believe that Margarito will KO Pacquiao. Come November 13 Margarito will reign again.

pac is very fast but he gets hit soo easily, and he swells and cuts up easily too he looked really busted up in his last 2 fights, and those guys mounted no attack to speak of. if this fight goes the distance it will most likley favor margs, pac runing will tire him out, he tired out in the clottey fight not real bad but bad enough to where a guy that actually fights back would give him problems. at some point manny will have to stand his ground .this fight is intruiging i wish margs was at his peak and this fight took place in2007 not now.

Now I know you don't know what your talking about. Pacquiao never fought Corley...or did you mean Clottey?
