Pacquiao vs Margarito: Could Pacquiao vs Mayweather Occur Now?

November 17th, 2010



Pacquiao vs Margarito was a big fight, but Pacquiao vs Mayweather would be a LOT BIGGER.  Floyd Mayweather, Jr and Manny Pacquiao are enemies of sorts in the realm of boxing.  They were set to fight head to head last November, but canceled amid a failure to agree on blood testing/drug testing requirements.

Manny Pacquiao is pound for pound the best fighter in the league (in his respective weight classes, that is) and he’s gone up against some of boxing’s finest.  Last weekend, he went against Mexico’s Antonio Margarito, and the results were almost disasterous. I take that back they were disastrous.  Not for Manny Pacquiao, but for Antonio Margarito who, thanks to the fight, has to have surgery on his face.

After that, fans are crying for Pacquiao vs Mayweather.  Bob Arum, Pacquio’s promoter, really wants to gun for this fight a well.

Given what transpired this past weekend, where Antonio Margarito had it handed to him by the Filipino sensation, I’m hoping that some agreement between the two fighters will be made for the epic battle.

I love Manny Pacquiao not only for his fighting skills but his sportsmanship. IT’s reported that he requested the judge call the fight during the 11th round, because he didn’t want to do permanent damage to Margarito.

However, Margarito deserves commendation for sticking in there.

Do you think that Pacquiao vs Margarito will lead to Pacquiao vs Mayweather?

    Floyd is the biggest juicer going, since he dictates the terms of the testing I guess he has a way to avoid being caught. But he looks absolutely freakish. I would match them evenly on speed, give Mayweather the edge on skill, Pacquiao the edge on heart and Mayweather the edge on size/strength. So Myweather sould seem to have more advantages and will probably win.

    The fight could happen, if Manny stops “JUICIN” and takes the blood test, otherwise fighting Pacquiao is like fighting Barry Bonds or the Incredible Hulk. Stop being a punk Manny, stay off the juice for about 6 months, take the blood test, get PAID and get a BEATIN all in the same night!

  3. Will we finally find out if Mayweather is a true champion? Or will his reputation and legacy be forever tained due to him dodging the man he should fight? I think Pacquiao would win based on heart.

    Pacquiao vs Mayweather a possibility?
    My answer is yes! And it could happen as early as March of 2011. Only problem is it won’t be with Manny….
    But Money will surely accept a fight against
    Mommy Pacquiao, Jinkee Pacquiao, or Bobby Pacquiao.
