Pacquiao vs Margarito

The Pacquiao vs Marquez fight is coming very soon and many fight fans are already excited to watch the Pacquiao vs Marquez fight because this is the third act o the much-awaited trilogy.

The new World Boxing Organization welterweight title-holder Manny Pacquiao sometimes known as “Pacman” is the eight buckle surprise, he is the mexicutioner, he has not faced top rated competitors lately simply because he has preferably employed vs the most moneymaking competitors and it is a shame mainly because he may have been able to wipe out superior boxers versus the ones his supporters go for him.

The ongoing World Boxing Association (WBA) Super World and WBO lightweight winner “El Dinamita” is at present the best Mexican boxer, a 3 dept champion, regimented within and out side the boxing ring, and he is a ingenious boxer who had previously been qualified to fight and do any harm to Filipino Pacquiao twice in 2 legendary spats.

Pacquiao vs Maquez

Marquez may have the congressman figured out, he understands the timing and accurate scale to connect and to avoid Pacman, he would be able to to remain at the adequate range to complicate the extreme method of Manny Pacquiao, even trainer Freddie Roach was troubled when the onslaught was proclaimed, but when Freddie allowed Pacman to confront Marquez it is mainly because he understands really well that at the contract catch-weight there is minimal prospect for Manny to lose.

If you are taking out the first round of the first Pacquiao vs Marquez and the 3rd round of the 2nd Pacquiao vs Marquez squabble it is very impressive the dominance that El Dinamita had over Pacquiao in at the least the one half of the rounds which they argued back. Without doubt Manny Pacquiao draw the 1st clash along with the conflict from the wrongful credit scoring of merely one moderator who just didn’t score the initial round 6-10 because the guidelines demands and was the winner of the 2nd incredibly tight contest, but not the less how’s it quite probable that El Dinamita was able to leave the canvas 3x in his 1st bout, to extract and to stop the battle within a very high flow? How is it possible that Pacquiao wasn’t competent to wind up his adversary? How is it quite probable that Juan Manuel Marquez surely could out box Pacman when he did? Sometimes it is too outright but no person it seems to experience what on earth is solid top level war.

It is a remorse the third Pacquiao vs Marquez bout went on so long being sorted out, it returned a year or so inside its final stages. Now Marquez is going to be 38 yrs . old and Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao 32, the fact remains that frequent boxers have been qualified to disrupt more youthful proficient fighters although the young lions do not proved to experience a fine updated punching progression as record owner Bernard “The Executioner” Hopkins turned out to be when he trained the much younger champion Pascal, or as the expert Mexican Morales ability against very chosen Maidana who was simply presupposed to wipe out the out of date boxer.

Juan Manuel “El Dinamita” Marquez often would seem to be in nice better shape among challenges, at a handful of interviews he stated that he does not ingest beer or light up cigarettes and he may keep a seriously okay wellness and his figure might not match to the age he does has. But immediately after 18 years as a boxer you are not able to expect to have him to still be as good as he was eight years previously, the same could be said about Pacquiao who started at a short age, he was only seventeen yrs . old when he produced his pro first appearance weighting only 106 pounds and vanquished the World Boxing Council (WBC) flyweight title by the age of twenty years old, Manny Pacquiao has 16 years as a prizefighter currently.

Ever since his last Pacquiao vs Marquez fight back on March 2008 Manny has mastered the World Boxing Council lightweight, International Boxing Organization light welter, World Boxing Organization (WBO) welter and WBC light middle belts meanwhile Dinamita overcome and defended the World Boxing Association Super World and World Boxing Organization (WBO) lightweight titles. Both have involved alongside good challenge but Pacman has faced way larger and much better practitioners than Juan Manuel did.

Now Pacquiao is improved than he was three years ago, he acquired sixteen lbs of reliable muscles and did not lost a little of the rate that he had while fought in the flyweight area, he is more powerful and he is way more powerful than the Pacquiao that campaigned at flyweight or super featherweight. Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao has adjusted just a few imperfections on his skills and at this time he is capable to absorb the power blows of bigger fighters like Margarito who out-weighted him substantially by seventeen lbs by the period of the battle, Margarito was able to sturdily connect Congressman-boxer Pacquiao even more than once with shots to the body and to the head and still hasn’t been able to kayo Manny; not as 15 or twelve years back when Manny was knocked out by Torrecampo (KO 3rd round precise left to the chin area) or Singsurat (TKO3 – body punch) who were flyweights and are not thought to be to be as the ideal strength boxers at their weight department. Manny significant advantages is the contract fight weight, all the more because it is a relaxing catchweight for him; Pacquiao is struggling with a excellent lightweight who has battled only once on the welterweight division and looked not fast enough to strive at it.

Manny Pacquiao

The Mexican Boxing Legend has the tendency to drop his right hand and obtains attack by upper cuts, he has been KO over and over by the similar punch, just as Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather or Katsidis did. The query is in which round, not if will he get KOd by a rapid tricky upper from Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao; Ricky Hatton got caught by a precious left uppercut and the clash ended in a dramatic trend. The major problem for Marquez is if he will however be able to get well as he did in the past? At age 38 we can not assume him to retain his youth permanently. He showed indicators of aging vs Katsidis but Michael was customised for Marquez to ruin due to the fact Michael Katsidis is powerless to prevent or slide, less to safely move out of the range of the powerful punches of many leading boxers in his weight section.

Juan Manuel Marquez

I am just not attempting to decline Juan Manuel Marquez, he however is a good boxer with great counter punching backdrops, and he does have really good velocity and stamina. While I speculate if his entire body will respond to him one more time, if his reflexes shall be distinct, will his strength be boosted or would his feet be able to hold him with the full twelve rounds of the Pacquiao vs Marquez fight at a superior pace within 144 lbs catch weight? Will he have sufficient tempo to compete as he managed in the past next to Pacquiao? Marquez edge is his vast knowledge, counterpunching skills and his trainer Ignacio Beristain.

The Pacquiao vs Marquez catch-weight issue, when the welterweight limitation is around 140 anywhere up to 147 pounds then fighters need to cling to it, on the other hand if both boxers consent to a reasonable catch weight then theydon’t have any excuses once the fight finishes. Difficulty for Marquez is the fact that he may not really be able to carry the additional weight in his body frame, in opposition to Floyd Mayweather Jr he looked pudgy at 142 lbs and was not fast enough to compete versus Floyd. On the other corner Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao can not make the whole category limit, he has recently been weighting at 142 lbs vs Oscar, 144 lbs against Miguel Cotto, 145 ¾ lbs versus Joshua, 144 ½ pounds versus Antonio Margarito and 145 pounds versus Mosley; around 144 ¼ pounds but he appears great and is working identically at the size.

El Dinamita may be in the win – win situation in the Pacquiao vs Marquez, regardless of what will be the upshot of this combat he can still profit a large wallet. If Juan Manuel messed up then he was speculated to do so. If he is the winner then he may have a rematch accompanied by a enormous money confirmed for him, but more important he would fasten an area in boxing foundation for simply being the individual who distressed a fighter that for a lot of is perceived as the biggest of all the times, but as Pacman he would not be deemed as the top by admirers abroad.

All the pressure might be on Manny Pacquiao´s part, he is the pound for pound greatest and will be struggling with a new tailor made challenger who has showed symptoms of getting old, and so he better look robust taking apart his previous competition.

The Pacquiao vs Marquez battle may not last the full twelve rounds but one thing is for sure, it won’t be a wearisome fight or disappointing as the Pacquiao against Mosley or Joshua Clottey fights were. Being Manny Pacquiao a lefty it will be essential for each fighters to steer clear of being headbutt and cut, since that could be a issue that might identify the outcome of the fight. Intuition shows that Manny Pacquiao will be victorious by late stoppage in a chilling combat but you are not able to count out Juan Manuel “El Dinamita” Marquez just yet; don’t forget that the Devil is clever for the reason that he is old not for the reason that he is nasty, and Juan Manuel “El Dinamita” Marquez is savvy, old and unpleasant inside of the ring. The thing is, could there be a fourth combat.

There’s barely 1 week more to go, Manny Pacquiao will fight versus Antonio Margarito for the WBC Light Middleweight (Super Welterweight) Championship at the Dallas Cowboys Stadium.

A lot of boxing fans are already very excited to watch the Pacquiao vs Margarito mega fight on November 13.

Congressman Pacquiao and Senator Harry Reid

Bob Arum, the owner of Top Rank Promotions has been very relentless in advertising and adding the sensation to the upcoming fight. It was agreed that Margarito will receive $10 million after all the money in the Stadium entrance fee, PPV buys and advertisers fee are counted in.

Manny Pacquiao will get a hefty $25 million.

Because of this big amount on both Manny Pacquiao and Antonio Margarito, Bob Arum is doing his best to get their expected 70,000 watchers at the Stadium and over 1.3 million HBO pay-per-view subscribers. If this numbers are achieved, Bob Arum will surely have a good paycheck for himself too.

MP Promotions, owned by Manny Pacquiao, Dallas Cowboys Stadium, owned by Jerry Jones and HBO-PPV are also doing their best to promote the Pacquiao vs Margarito fight so they will also have a big share of the money after fight night.

In his recent visit to the Philippines, Bob Arum told the press that Manny Pacquiao was looking slow and will be defeated by Margarito if he fights him that week. That statement was, according to many, only used to tell the media to write about Margarito’s chances over Pacquiao; among many other variations of advertising styles just to add the hype of the fight. This way, people will be convinced to watch the fight and expect Margarito will give Pacquiao a good fight.

But there are still hypocrites out there who continue to believe that Pacquiao is invincible and Margarito is just too slow for him.

Personally, I agree that Manny Pacquiao throws a lot of punches than Antonio Margarito. But speed is not only a factor in a game. There’s also power, precision, ability to absorb punches, ring intellect among many others.

Even if I know that Bob Arum including all the media covering Pacquiao and Margarito are just trying to convince everyone that this will be a good fight and possibly the fight of the year, I will still watch this fight even if I think Pacquiao, the heavy favorite, will win this easily.

There have been reports that Pacquiao is skipping training session, not jogging in the morning, playing too much basketball, practicing his after-fight party together with his band, going from Baguio to Manila on a 6-hour drive every Sunday to attend boxing sessions when he was in Manila – all of these are b#ll$hit.

Pacquiao is very much ready and can fight Margarito anytime. They are already in Hollywood, California at Freddie Roach’s Wild Card Gym for the full throttle of their training.

Antonio Margarito and reporter Inez Sainz

Margarito is still in Oxnard, California working on the best training of his entire career so far, with Coach Robert Garcia at the Robert Garcia Boxing Academy.

The bigger, taller, stronger Margarito will face the faster Manny Pacquiao.

In some reports, they believed Manny will be slower if they add more bulk to his body – think of comparing the speed of a flyweight and heavyweight – so that Manny will be near Margarito’s weight.

It is expected that Margarito will be 10-15 lbs heavier than Pacquiao on November 13 because Margarito is used to fighting near this weight class compared to Pacquiao who just recently went to a weight class this high in a dream of getting his 8th-division championship belt – an effort to extend his feat no other boxer has achieved.

In Facebook Fan Pages, the thrill and excitement of the Pacquiao vs Margarito fight is in the air. You can really feel their need to see if Margarito will pull an upset over Manny Pacquiao and add a belt to his million dollar purse.

Many websites are also blogging about Manny Pacquiao and Antonio Margarito and a lot of them are also claiming they will have the Pacquiao vs Margarito Live Stream on fight night. Honestly, I don’t think the free live streaming is really free but I will still try to find a good free source over the internet and paste the video here for everyone to enjoy.

It’s almost November 13, Manny Pacquiao and Antonio Margarito’s fight is already on everybody’s mind. The hype is up and excitement level has gone a step higher.

Those who are still looking for a Mayweather-Pacquiao fight, sorry we’re disappointed.

Here’s Pacquiao vs Margarito – hopefully a good fight.

Eleven days to go, Margarito will meet Pacquiao in the boxing ring housed inside Dallas Cowboys Stadium in Texas, USA. They will fight for the vacant WBC Light Middleweight Belt, as well as the pride for themselves and their respective country.

Manny Pacquiao, of the Philippines, is now on his most crucial stage of his preparation against Antonio Margarito. After sparring with southpaws Michael Medina, Glen Tapia and Amir Khan in the Philippines, he will now spar against heavy bombers Rashad Holloway, Rey Beltran and David Rodela, along with undefeated Vanes Martiyosan and Peter Quillin at the Wild Card Gym owned by Pacquiao’s celebrated trainer Freddie Roach.

On the contrary with other writers, Pacquiao’s camp has been very focused on the upcoming Pacquiao vs Margarito fight. They have been unrelenting in improving the fighter’s body condition as well as his main weapon – speed. According to reports, Manny is a little slow with the added weight. This is the reason why they stayed at 147 lbs and will go up about 150 lbs during weigh-in.

Antonio Margarito, a Mexican, is very confident he will win against Pacquiao. He is expected to be 10-15 lbs heavier than Pacquiao on fight night which will be a big advantage for him. Everyone in Margarito’s camp is very positive that Antonio will pull an upset against the number 1 boxer in the world on November 13. The underestimated Antonio Margarito is hungry to win against the pound-for-pound king so he can get away from the never-ending hand-wraps controversy he is facing even though he has already served his 1 year ban from the sports. He was denied in getting the boxing license in California but got the favor in Texas because of the influence of Cowboys’ owner Jerry Jones and Top Rank Promoter Bob Arum.

Margarito looks great inside the ring as what his sparring partners are telling the press. Antonio is very much focused on the fight, training with former IBF world champion Robert Garcia at his Boxing Academy in Oxnard, California. Team Margarito has been enhancing Antonio’s foot and hand speed to be able to go toe-to-toe with Manny in the Pacquiao vs Margarito fight. Being the aggressor will still be the main game plan and challenging Pacquiao’s volume of punches will be carried out.

In the beginning of the negotiation between Manny Pacquiao and Antonio Margarito’s camps, it was conceived as one of the most mismatched fights in history. Manny Pacquiao is coming from a 12-game winning streak compared to Margarito who lost to a KO against Mosley and then won a UD is his latest fight, may be one of the most boring fights to see. But with Bob Arum’s convincing power, working with Top Rank for years and selling mismatched fights, any ordinary boxing fan would surely buy the fight – including Pacquiao vs Margarito.

To add the hype to the upcoming November 13 fight, sportswriters, website bloggers and reporters are telling everyone that Manny Pacquiao is not too focused on the fight – congress sessions, basketball, skipping in training, campaigning for Senator Reid, Jimmy Kimmel live, etc – just to add more thrill to those who will see the fight either in person or on live streaming.

Those who are in-favor of Antonio Margarito to win against Pacquiao is just telling the world that their underdog can match against Pacquiao’s speed and ability to KO heavier boxers. Convincing the general public that Margarito has the height and reach advantages are also the main points of adding more blatant or sensational promotion to the upcoming Pacquiao vs Margarito fight.

Manny Pacquiao with Inez Sainz

Recently, Congressman Pacquiao visited Jimmy Kimmel Show along with Comedian and Actor Will Ferrell and the Sexy Model Inez Sainz. Pacquiao and Ferrell sang the John Lennon classic song “Imagine” – this is just one way how the most popular boxer in this generation pleases himself.

Being an active boxer and a Congressman at the same time, Manny Pacquiao, who is known as one of the busiest athlete in the world will be 100% on his approaching fight against Antonio Margarito.

Margarito, who have been unforgiving in training for the biggest fight of his career – in a second chance at boxing stardom, will also be 100% during fight night. Trainer Robert Garcia said that the more they watch Pacquiao’s previous fights, the more they figure how to win against him and predicted a KO win for Margarito in the 11th round. Trainer Freddie Roach has already predicted that Manny will win within 8 rounds and his predictions have been very close to the real outcome.

Personally, even if I know that Pacquiao vs Margarito will be a mismatch in favor for Manny Pacquiao, I still think Margarito will give Pacquiao a good beating and show the people an exciting and thrilling fight. This will be a sensational fight, expected to be the Fight of Year 2010. I’m for Manny Pacquiao but I don’t take the underrated Antonio Margarito for granted. This will be a nice fight which will lead both fighters another shot at more fame – and more money.

Manny Pacquiao is fighting because he wants to win another championship belt in his 8th weight class (he started from flyweight) in an extension of his feat which no other boxer has achieved. Antonio Margarito is fighting because he wants redemption and fame. He wants to erase the speculations that he did wrap his hands with Plaster of Paris in the locker room prior to fighting Shane Mosley. Both boxers are obviously fighting for money – in terms of millions of dollars – coming from the expected 70,000 crowd at the Stadium, millions of HBO-PPV Live Stream subscribers, and advertisers.

Good luck to Manny Pacquiao and Antonio Margarito and may the best boxer win!

It’s barely 2 weeks more to go before the Pacquiao vs Margarito fight is settled in the ring. Everyone is very excited to see Manny Pacquiao, of the Philippines, fight versus Antonio Margarito, of Mexico, for the vacant Junior Middleweight Belt.

Margarito may win against Pacquiao for a lot of reasons. And let me state some of them below.

Margarito showing his biceps and abs

Manny Pacquiao has a lot of distractions and is sometimes skipping from his daily training routine. Margarito may now be ahead of Pacquiao in terms of training – speed, agility, endurance, ring intelligence.

When Manny Pacquiao’s camp was in Baguio City, Philippines, the prized fighter was so busy that he ended up getting a negative feedback from the fight promoter, Bob Arum of Top Rank Promotions. Pacquiao suffered from a foot sore, rushed to the hospital and skipped jogging and ring sessions.

Pacquiao flew to Los Angeles, California, several days ago, to be, according to them, more focused on training. This time, another distraction came when Bob Arum contacted Manny Pacquiao to be at Las Vegas to help in Senator Harry Reid’s bid for another Senate Term. Head Trainer Freddie Roach and Conditioning Coach Alex Ariza were frustrated that Manny Pacquiao can’t be focused on his upcoming Pacquiao vs Margarito fight.

A couple of days ago, Pacquiao sparred with Amir Khan and almost went down. Amir Khan’s speed may already be at par with Pacquiao’s. In a recent media workout video seen at YouTube.com, Pacquiao was showing his lighting fast speed while he shadow boxed. Someone from the ropes, possibly Freddie Roach, said it was still slow and Manny responded that it’s probably because he added more weight.

Pacquiao and Roach on Media Day Workout

Another reason Margarito can beat Manny in the Pacquiao vs Margarito is that Pacquiao will be gaining a lot of weight, a weight which he is not used to when boxing. Manny (and his team) agreed that they he is getting slow with the added bulk by eating and drinking protein rich foods.

Now, there are two choices for Manny Pacquiao on his weight on fight night – 1. He will be at 147 lbs and has the extra speed advantage or 2. He will be at 151 lbs and lose a lot of speed.

Margarito is expected to be around 160 lbs on November 13 because he is used to fighting near this weight class. He is inspired to pull an upset against the top boxer in the sport to regain his reputation. And not only his reputation, he will also get millions of dollars, win the affliction endorsement deal, and win the jeep vs his mercedez benz against his uncle. He will also give the pride to his countrymen as well as get back the fame he once deserved.

Pacquiao vs Margarito will happen at the $1.2 billion Dallas Cowboys Stadium owned by Jerry Jones. This will be Pacquiao’s second time to fight here (his first was against Joshua Clottey) while it will be Margarito’s first.

Margarito has a height advantage of almost 5” and a reach advantage of 6”. His main strategy is to push Manny to the ropes or to the corner and box him like there’s no tomorrow.

Unlike Manny Pacquiao, Margarito can absorb more punches and he is very much used to it. His 3-4 punch body-face combination will be his main arsenal against Manny Pacquiao. And if Pacquiao wants to fight in the middle of the ring, Margarito will simply use his height and reach advantages over the Filipino slugger.

Antonio Margarito trained in Robert Garcia’s Boxing Academy in Oxnard, California. This is the most serious and most relentless training he has ever done. Even though he was away from boxing for almost 2 years after the controversial hand wraps, Margarito continued his daily training exercises and boxing routine.

Antonio, trained by former IBF champion Robert Garcia, started enhancing their speed level to go against Pacquiao’s speed advantage a couple of months ago. Power to power, both Manny and Margarito may be almost similar but the speed is still to be determined on Nov 13.

The Pacquiao vs Margarito will be a very exciting fight. Both head trainers predicted that their prized fighter will win a KO. Roach predicted Pacquiao will KO Margarito within 8 rounds while Garcia predicted Pacquiao will be KO in the 11^th round.

We won’t know the outcome unless we go to Dallas Cowboys Stadium or watch the Pacquiao vs Margarito Live Stream, HBO-PPV, delayed telecast on TV, read the news or hear the radio.

This will be an all out war between two champions who never back down just to throw their own set of blows. For the live streaming on the Manny Pacquiao versus Antonio Margarito fight, we will try to upload a video or link so everyone in your family and friends can enjoy the free online live streaming on your computer without paying anything but a small electricity bill.

Good luck to both Pacquiao vs Margarito on fight night.

In one of the biggest event that will happen this 2010, the Pacquiao vs Margarito has already gathered the support of boxing fans who are not previously at ease that this fight happened. But now, people are already writing, blogging, covering about Pacquiao vs Margarito all over the net spreading the news that this fight is going to be something the normal boxing fans and the boxing critics will say as the “fight of the year”.

Pacquiao versus Margarito

Because of the big difference in “fight night” weight, speed, stamina, strength among other factors, the Pacquiao vs Margarito is looked upon as something worth watching. Antonio Margarito, who is the bigger fighter, is expected to be at around 165 lbs during fight night compared to Manny Pacquiao’s 155 lbs. Because of this difference, Manny Pacquiao will have a hard time putting a bulkier enemy on canvass and may end the Pacquiao vs Margarito in the scorecard.

Antonio Margarito has a reach advantage of 6” and likes to fight close range. Antonio has a choice of fighting both long range, because of his reach advantage, and close range, because of his solid uppercuts. Manny Pacquiao definitely wants to fight long range even though he is shorter than 4 ½” than his opponent for the reason that Margarito can knock him out in any round and because Manny Pacquiao has the speed and can easily get inside Margarito once he sees an opening in the defense. He will use his in-out-right jab-left hook combination to defeat the bigger, heavier but slower Margarito in the Pacquiao vs Margarito match.

Manny Pacquiao is expected to be the lighter boxer and will be less than the agreed catch weight of 151 lbs. He is comfortable at a lighter weight and can throw more punches than in the higher weight. The ultimate weapon of Manny in the Pacquiao vs Margarito fight is his speed which Margarito doesn’t have in his last fights. But in this upcoming mega event at the Dallas Cowboys Stadium, Antonio will be different. He has trained with one of the best trainers, probably next to Freddie Roach, Robert Garcia. Both Garcia and Margarito are training in Oxnard, California inside Robert Garcia’s boxing academy. Margarito has been very relentless in training according to his coach. He jogs in the morning and works 8 to 12 rounds in the mitts in a day. He spars with amateur but talented southpaws several rounds in a day and he is now prepared in the Pacquiao vs Margarito fight.

In a recent visit of Bob Arum, the promoter of Pacquiao vs Margarito, in the Philippines. He sees that Pacquiao is no longer his old self. He is too slow for Margarito and if the fight happens today, Pacquiao will be defeated. This is because of the added weight Pacquiao got from drinking protein juice. He is not at ease at this weight and additionally he has foot injuries and sores which is why his speed is slower. In a recent Pacquiao vs Margarito article, Pacquiao went down to 148 lbs and showed Arum what he can do and this time the Top Rank Promoter was impressed.

Even though Bob Arum says something negative about Manny and praises Margarito, many are still not convinced to watch the Pacquiao vs Margarito Live Stream. Maybe because Arum is the promoter of the Pacquiao vs Margarito fight and he simply wanted to tell everyone that this fight will be good.

Tickets and HBO PPV sales are doing great according to Arum.

During fight night, people are already expecting that Pacquiao will be lighter but faster. Margarito will be heavier but slower. This comes down to ring intelligence and strength. Whoever has the heart to win the in the Pacquiao vs Margarito will emerge victorious and bring home the pride and the WBC Light Middleweight Championship belt.

One of the best moments of Manny Pacquiao’s life is playing basketball. It was noted that in his preparation for the upcoming Pacquiao vs Margarito on November 13, Manny included basketball in his training. He plays basketball a few times a week together with sparring partners, Michael Medina and Glen Tapia and condition coach Alex Ariza.

Even if Head Trainer Freddie Roach does not want the idea that Manny Pacquiao plays basketball a lot,, because of the reason that his prized fighter may suffer from severe injury and possibly not fight in the Pacquiao vs Margarito showdown at the Dallas Cowboys Stadium, he can’t do anything about it. Freddie Roach told Manny Pacquiao to stop playing basketball 4 weeks before the fight and focus on training in the mitts and body conditioning.

In recent news, Manny Pacquiao is no longer his old self according to Bob Arum. And if Pacquiao fight Margarito this Saturday, he would surely lose to the “Tijuana Tornado”. Pictures of Margarito showing that he is physically fit, videos showing that he is at par with Pacquiao’s speed and sparring partners are saying that Antonio Margarito’s power is too much for Manny Pacquiao.

The Pacquiao vs Margarito fight is now expected to go the distance because both fighters have prepared well for this fight. Many are expecting Manny Pacquiao to emerge victorious but because of Pacquiao’s loss of focus, he may be on the same level with Antonio Margarito now. Pacquiao has been getting injuries, going to congress sessions, skipping in training and playing a lot of basketball. Unlike before where people predicts an easy KO win for Pacquiao in the middle rounds in the Pacquiao vs Margarito fight.

Bob Arum is disappointed of what Pacquiao is showing him. Even though Bob Arum is more on Pacquiao’s side than of Margarito’s, he is telling the media that he doesn’t want this “Pacman”, he want the old Pacquiao to “resurrect”. Pacquiao is not ready for his Pacquiao vs Margarito fight and he would easily lose to the Mexican slugger.

But even though Manny Pacquiao is way behind his training, he is still finding time to visit the Basketball Court and play with his friends and locals in his neighborhood which he doesn’t want to leave behind. In the Pacquiao vs Margarito fight, Manny may possibly have an injury caused by playing basketball. But if that’s what Pacquiao wants, that is what Pacquiao gets. He is the boxer, he is the fighter and he is the champion.

Before HBO releases the first episode of the reality show 24/7 for Pacquiao vs Margarito promotion, they went to General Santos, Philippines where Pacquiao grew up and played basketball a lot. Below is the video and transcript of “Basketball Court – best moments of Pacquiao”.

Transcript of the video made by HBO

Narrator: On a muggy day in the Philippine southernmost city, the best boxer in the world is on a basketball court. Running a ground he paved, shooting on baskets he built. Surrounded by striking pairing of armed guards and locals from the neighborhood, the neighborhood Manny Pacquiao has no interest in leaving behind.

Manny Pacquiao: My style, before and now is the same. I never changed in my life that even I have a money and fame but I’m still the same. And I don’t want to change in my lifestyle.

Narrator: Pacquiao’s compound is just a few miles from the slums where he grew up. Of the high walls and small army of body guard provide a buffer on one of Philippines poorest cities, it’s impossible to visit the champion and not notice the neediness that fills the streets.

Freddie Roach: They know the poverty that General Santos is a poor place. I mean, you know if you don’t have a job and you don’t have someone to take care of you, there’s no welfare, there’s no food stamps, there’s nothing like that.

Manny Pacquiao: 100 peso, it’s 2 dollars. I give it to my mother to buy our rice.
