What was the weight difference between Pacquiao and Margarito fight night?

Wasn't Margarito like 16 or more pounds than him? He got beat up by a midget.

Pre-fight notes
• Welcome to Cowboys Stadium, where a packed house (40,000 tickets were sold as of Friday and promoters are eyeing a 60,000 gate) is here for the super welterweight showdown between Manny Pacquiao and Antonio Margarito.
• Earlier tonight Pacquiao weighed in on the HBO scales at 148 pounds while Margarito rehydrated to 165 pounds. That's a huge weight difference and makes Margarito easily the biggest fighter Pacquiao has ever faced. Put in another context, it's basically a super middleweight taking on a welterweight.

Margarito got beat up by a guy he was 17 pounds more then. Speed kills.

He had a really, really, really bad night. Really.

I think they poisoned him... He seemed slow and took too many shots to the mouth and eye.

I bet they ****ed his Ephedra Hydroxy tea with heroin.

Speed and power. Manny had Margarito rocked on more than one occasion. That right hook in the tenth was incredible. As was the uppercut in the fourth. Think Floyd could take those shots?
