The truth of the matter is that Marg IS a dangerous fighter and he always has been. Many think that Marg is overmatched. Maybe he is, but on the other hand maybe he isn't. His style could work very well against Manny. If he can use his chin and size to walk through Manny's punches and absorb the punisment, he will be able to take away Manny's space. If that happens it will be tough going down the stretch. That is Marg's blueprint for pretty much all of his fights. By rounds 5 and 6 we will see exactly where the fight is going. This is why I'm a Manny fan. He is willing to take on all challenges.

As long as it's at a catchweight.

Roach has a reason to be scared because it just hit him.... Margs ain't going to be drained like Cotto and De La Hoya were. It took Mosley 9 rounds to knock out a weight drained Marg( who wasn't ever in the fight mentally because he was caught with the handwraps, and Margs himself said in 24/7 that most of his training camp for Mosley was spent trying to make weight). Now Margs will rehydrate up to the 160's and he is motivated for this fight. No way a 146 Pac will KO a 160 Margs on fight night. I have a feeling that the fight will be tougher than expected for Pac and Roach.

pacman fans will not be swayed on who they think we win. the biggest trashtalking trainer, who never gives an opponent credit, is stating the obvious, and or his fears, and yet filipinos remain unshaken. i have a feeling that if manny were to pull out of the fight, his fans would believe that manny did so because he did not want to kill margarito. i can respect the unwavering loyality but its getting to be a bit comical.
