    It WON'T...The Mexican Community is WHOLE HEARTEDLY SUPPORTING Margarito on this 1....Cowboy's Stadium May as Well B Tijuana, Cause the "Tijuana Tornado" WILL B the Crowd Favorite...

    The Clottey Fight did like 700,000 ppvs...This Fight will Do 8 or 900,000, in REED's Opinion...

    No news here. Pac said he would be retiring soon. If he beats Marg he may as well.

    He may, but he will come back. The man just loves the sport.

    Pacquiao will lose against Margarito to set up a rematch that he'll expect to win and then retire.

    margarito vs pacquiao will do well over 1 million buys.

    What if it happens when they both are relevant anymore?

    he's certainly more exciting and not as sloppy. he may not be as brave - we don't know.

    I'm just saying it would make sense and it may put pressure on Floyd.

    Scary when the lone, still-active, big draw in boxing isn't interested in the sport anymore.

    which is the likely scenario...

    What are you trying to say.

    I'm saying it sucks for the sport of boxing since Manny is only 31 and could easily stay on top for a few more years if motivated.

    It also sucks because, as much as I hate being a dreamer, I have always hoped we would eventually get to see Mayweather-Pacquiao at some point.

    Now, due 100% to lack of interest, Manny will either lose to Margarito or retire afterward. In either case, boxing fans will be once and for all robbed of a rare showdown between all-time great fighters.

    Clear enough or should I go on?

    It would add clarity if you'd allocate for us the % of total blame among Pacquiao, PBF and other.

    Mine allocation: 5% Pacquiao, 95% PBF, 5% other.

    70% Pac, 60% Mayweather, 75% others

    I want Pac to lose solely to not get floyd another mega payday. margarito wins and it's a huge story...more money for the rematch.

    Floyd vs Pac was seriously discussed for the first time almost a year ago...heated up after Pac decapitated Cotto...don't want to bother with that crap again.

    I see your point.

    PBF: 90%
    Pacquiao: 5%
    Other: 5%

    When did people begin entertaining the idea that Margarito could win this fight? Is it 24-7? Is that's what's doing it? Well good for HBO.

    You know, I'm a little different. I know there could be a ton of reasons why this fight doesn't happen, but there is one constant that I firmly believe. If Mayweather wanted this fight badly enough, it would have happened. Period.

    So with that in mind, I have to go 100% on Floyd.

    For me, yes. And I hate being that gullible, but it's worked damn it!!!!

    Pacquiao was the one to blame for the fight not happening when first brought up; Floyd is to blame for round 2.
