wonder what margaritos purse is for this bout. certainly they got him a whole lot cheaper than cotto. if pacquiao has a large upside of ppv and gate, this could easily be his highest payday to date.
farce. will not watch this crap. Never mind the wraps, Margarito got his ASS WHOOPED in his last real fight. What did he do to deserve this shot?!!?!?
oh well...they should let him wear the plaster since manny is gonna be on roids. Even the playing field and I'll watch.
Disgusting. But I've been saying it all along. A faggit with "whispers" of drug abuse, and a convicted, registered cheat. I bet the fucking fight won't even be at the 147 limit. FUCK THIS.
7:50 I dont understand where he got all of this new power from. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1P8L2KzQlhA&feature=related
Good ol' Dickie Cole. I wonder if Laurence Cole will be reffing the fig....................bwwahhahahahahahahaha! Of course he fucking will!
He might, but it's actually been a while (relatively speaking) since he's reffed a major fight in Texas. Diaz-Malignaggi 1 might've been the last time.

Bullshit. Obviously the decision is reprehensible. But I just love the "government"-style justification. So they got the application and in just 2 DAYS they granted a license.... but don't worry! In those 16 working hours of which they probably worked about 8, the Department of Licensing and Regulation workers diligently reviewed the extensive transcript of Margarito's entire California hearing? And the order issued by California? And everything else? So in between lunch, talking at the water cooler, calling their girlfriends, surfing for porn, and going to the bathroom, these guys did all this in what, 30 minutes? Come on. Where I live, there is no license in existence you can get in 2 days other than a fishing license which you can buy at Walmart. Let alone a license to fight after something as catastrophic as Margarito's plaster problem. You can't get a building permit in my community in less than a few weeks, and that's at the local level. But somehow Margarito, despite his history, gets his approval rushed through in a matter of hours and this is supposed to be viewed by boxing fans how? Do you think it has anything to do with him ALREADY having a fight scheduled in Texas in 3 months? They didn't consider any of this crap. They didn't review shit. Marg got the free green light due to typical wink-wink, nudge-nudge boxing corruption, favors, money, and power. Load your gloves, no big deal. Fight in Mexico for a few months, you'll be back in no time.
Agreed. The fact that Plasterito is getting this fight puts a sour taste in my mouth, and honestly puts me off Pacquiao too. Pacquiao doesn't need Plasterito, he shouldn't even give him the time of day, let alone a fucking huge payday. People should boycott this fight, Plasterito should be fucking BANNED from boxing, not fighting a mega star like Pacquiao.
I'll be there in person for this one, should be a blast! Manny has his hands full this time around, and is going to have to use his hand and foot speed here, jab and slide to the right, and then nail him with the left when he reaches in as he is wont to do. Karl
Resto gets 3 years in jail for pulling the stuffing out and never boxes again. Panama is banned from the corner for life. Margarito for stuffing his gloves gets a year off with pay and will make 10 mil against Manny for a title fight at 154. A weight that outside of Garcia....Margarito has not fought in for 6 years and Manny has never fought in. A catch-weight to boot. Bob you are a genius.
