      Margarito was breathing heavily after every round. So I agree with TS, hopefully. Though a lot of Pac fans are worried, including me.
      Hmm wonder what happened to his legendary stamina? Wonder if the catchweight has anything to do with it?

      So you're worried about what a lot of people are saying, that it'll be a one-sided affair for Pacquiao...I see.

        I think the weight is becoming a major issue for Margarito. Not that it would've mattered much anyway. I saw those training pics for him yesterday; it'll be interesting to see how much he struggles to cut off those last 5-6 pounds. Looks like it's gonna be a big problem.

          I thought the weight wouldnt be an issue considering he alway fights at 147, But he has been at 147 now for ages and i read an article last week detailing how Margarito doesnt look good weight-wise...Maybe Earnoer90 can give us some insight on how he looks with the weight.

            I agree, margo will be hit a lot. Pac punches will be raining down on him... Can he take it?... training hard will help and that is exactly what he is doing.

            I still predict Pac by UD or late round stoppage, but honestly I am not discounting an upset.
            Co-sign here,I think people are forgetting that conditioning in boxing is the biggest fundemental!!People say it's Manny's speed that killed the bigger guys,I don't buy it!!Manny has superb conditioning,that's what beat those bigger guys!!His ability to maintain a very high activity rate!!I would never in a million years compare Manny's power to Mosley's!!Take a long hard breath,Manny hit a dead Oscar with everything but the kitchen sink & couldn't drop him,Manny also trippled Clottey's output & couldn't stop him!!Cotto's chin was already cracked by Margarito & his stamina has always been bad!!

              He's been at 147 since he was 18 and was killing himself to make it the last time he had to. I think he moved to 154 for a reason. It's possible he may be fine with 154 but if it's a struggle, this fight is going to be ugly.
