Since Pacquio started his boxing career, this is the first time he fights for 151 pounds weight limit.
And I think this the most heaviest and difficult fight for him considering with Margarito's height advantage, the power and the skills.
Do you think Pacquio can really overcome Margarito's power?

Speed and agility is the advantage of Pacquiao. Margarito is a good decent fighter but Pacquiao is a better fighter within the two. For me, it will be Pacquiao winning a unanimous decision.

yes of course the speed and agility are the main advantage of Manny...but if Margarito use his height advantage and keep the distance from Manny's power, I might say that there is a good chance for Margarito to overpower Manny, right? What do you think?

pacquiao is just an amazing fighter. Over the years he has evolved into one of the greatest fighter in boxing. Although i can say that he has what it got to be a great fighter, his current fights is not just about fighting instead economics now play a big part of it. Margarito could be a big fighter but i'm sure pacquiao's camp has already studied and weighed his chances of winning. On a personal level i can say that pacquiao still has an edge over margarito mainly due to his speed and power. The bigger his opponent will be the easier it is for pacquiao to hit and just like in most of pacquiao's fights if they got hit they would surely fall. The heavier his opponent, the harder is the fall.

Margarito's advantage is only his height and reach but if you would recall or if you could watch it on youtube Margarito cheat on his fight I can't remember if it is Mostley or Cotto. But this accusation hasn't been proved yet because the case is still ongoing. My point here is that Manny's punch is twice as strong as Margarito because.

As I have recalled, it was Mosley who battered him so much and lost that fight...He gets penalty of suspension over a year ago because of that hand wrapped issues. Now, He gets a chance to fight Manny where matchmaker in boxing saw the Margarito's height advantage. But Manny seems doesn't bother about the height advantage of Margarito and I would say that this is really hard for Manny.

of course Manny can overcome Margarito. even though he has the reach advantage a speed and power of Manny will throw him down to sleep.unless if he will not chit again and put some hard stuffs and his boxing glabs.

Well, almost everybody believed that Manny could overcome Margarito using his speed and power and it's true...but I don't think Manny can execute very well his speed and power punch to Margarito unless he's team and Manny has a better plan to hit him hard to knock him out. Because we could not discount the fact that Margarito's height and natural weight can bring down Manny.
