TRUUSHOT - any final day thoughts [QUOTE=truushot;31850]That +420 looks even better then that steak I am buying you but I can't get past Margarito's last two fights. Mosley, who is basically slow and shot beat his ass, and Roberto Garcia lasted the full 10 rounds. In his last fight, Margarito looked like he was punching underwater. His hand and foot speed where terrible.
Margarito is an old 32 with 16 years in the ring. Pacquiao hasn't shown any real deterioration and only seems to get better as he's moved up in weight.
The first question I ask myself about fights is... WHY is this fight happening?
I think the answer is simple, Pacquiao wouldn't have taken this fight without REALLY thinking that it won't be all that hard of a fight; while getting a great payday. Margarito brings the Mexican fans and they and the rest of the world will pay through the nose for the PPV.
I may not be able to pass on the HUGE plus number, but I really don't give Margarito much of a chance of winning. He's simply to slow.
Number looks tasty, but Pacquiao is just far better then this version of Margarito.
If you want to bet Margarito, bet him inside the distance. That is the only way he'll win and the number is even better. +500 on 5dimes currently.
I predict that Pacquiao will win via UD or a late stoppage.
Seems like a lot of hype about Margarito. I don't believe that he was ever really that talented, and Pacquiao's foot-speed will likely embarrass Margarito.[/QUOTE]
still inside the distance ? or how about OVER 9.5 rounds?
