Well that wont change the fact that he still beats Margarito's a$$...... (late stoppage)
I have to give to Margarito though. Dude doesn't look like he has any pressure on him at all.... like either he's REALLY confidant or just knows what's about to come and has accepted it.... (ass beating for lots of money)
Must be nice to fight under Top Rank.... (cough cough)
lolz @ the bold part..

I think the catchweight is more of a compromise, cuz Pac's team would want the fight at 147, but Margs isn't that comfortable at that weight anymore, so they gave him 3 extra pounds. Blame the paper belt on Arum and the WBC. Arum wanted it for the promotion, and WBC wanted it for the sanctioning fee. Pac and Margs would have still fought without the belt IMO. Don't blame the fighters.

Manny is many things, a great fighter and a true champion at times, but 8 titles in 8 divisions is a deception that is allowed by this sport's corrupt sanctioning bodies. That is a dirty secret that will not dissapear.
I say that as a Pacquiao fan. So really, yeah, the belt of this fight means nothing to me. I want to see a great fight, and whoever wins, I know they're not the champion.

I think Manny will win still, style wise his dip in, dip out nature of punching will find him landing the cleaner shots and basically his overall output will hold him down, Margarito will come to fight but he will lose and that's my honest opinion, I think he will lose in a way where people saying this will be "the best win ever" will really blow that line up once they see how he does it, he will impress everyone who wasn't already impressed tomorrow night, that's guaranteed, it might be bloody but bet your house on it

lol! the *****s are panicking! what time Floyd fight tomorrow? Pac is 140 fighter to the max, could stay at 140 and beat anybody there. junior welterweigt Pac beating elite welterweights and above is what makes him special above great. if he was like the same or more weight, height and reach over his opponents...you think anybody will say specially the jealous *****s he is great? Don't blame Pacquiao about the catchweight. Blame the system/sanctioning bodies allowing these catchweight fights to happen. Catchweights has been here even before Pac was born. So its not fair you blame Pac for doing things within the rules. Only dumb, idiots and *****s biitching about this fight!

Wow....lbs144 that is definitely lower than i was expecting. However, he has mentioned a few time already that he wants to keep his speed for this fight, which is obviously a good idea. Just never thought he'd come in this low.
Pacquiao better forgot about trying to make his fans happy buy going toe-to-toe. If Pacman is dumb enough trade with Cheato, he will lose.Last edited by p4p-champ; 11-12-2010, 08:37 PM.
