Is Antonio Margarito a Worthy Opponent for Manny Pacquiao?

October 19, 2010
Its been a question since the Pacquiao vs. Margarito fight hype started. Is Antonio Margarito really a worthy fight against Manny Pacquiao? Other fighters and analysts are claiming that there are fighters that are worth to fight the pound for pound king. Of course, we can't include Floyd Mayweather Jr. on the list because he already indicated his "fear" on the Filipino boxer by turning down the challenge and dodging the negotiations for several times.

One of the boxer that shows interest in fighting him is Juan Manuel Marquez but since people already seen them fight for several times, its not a very marketable fight. Another one that was possible before his defeat with Cotto was the former undefeated Foreman. However his big lost with Cotto and his poor performance in the Cowboys Stadium shows no interest for viewers.

In the case of Antonio Margarito, despite the hardened hand wraps scandals, the Tijuana's tornado is known for being offensive and aggressive on the ring which makes his challenge to Pac-Man an interesting match. It will be an explosive slugfest that we will surely see. Not the "Punch and Go" style nor Hit and Run. It will be a fight that will surely show someone lying on the canvass.

The question, if he is really worthy, IMO, he is!
