Boxing - Pacquiao-Margarito lineup
Time to see if Pavlik can bounce back now!
...yea not too bad
I wish for this season of 24/7 they would focus on some of the undercard fighters. It would be interesting to see what the lives of Rigondeaux, Jones and Pavlik are like these days all at different points in their career's. But that won't be the case. I hope Pavlik can pick up the pieces and maybe take a run at making some noise at 168.
if they match pavlik with someone half decent like andrade or zuniga then yeah that actually looks pretty good.
If however loew will just be throw in your run of the mill journeyman with a half decent record then that actually looks a pretty tame card
Yep. Arum will prolly trash dig someone's dumpster and pick up a tomato can for Pavlik.
I think it's a fairly interesting undercard and I suspect Uncle Bob to put such a good one up in hope that the ticket sell will be good despite the many people that might boycott it due to Margarito being in the plot.
There will be no boycott that amounts to anything. I mean us hardcore fans probably can't even put one together. Pacquiao is the most popular fighter in all of boxing right now, who his opponent is doesn't even matter. It's just a new name, that's all that matters.
Is there a catchweight? What is it? I'd like to see this fucker take on Cotto at 154.
I'd love to see Cotto get revenge too mate. Problem is the amount of damage he has taken in the last couple of years, not sure he would do himself justice. I rewatched the Cotto-Marg fight for the first time since the night the other day and looking back in hindsight I am 99% sure Marg had loaded gloves in that fight. The way Cotto's face just fell apart in a fight he was near enough dominating is hard to believe, especially now we know what Marg gets upto!Quote:

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprise if the numbers wouldn't be that staggering compared to other Pacman's fights. Time will tell but I wouldn't be surprise if that one would be lower than with Clottey.Quote:

I really doubt it would be lower then Clottey's. Mexicans buy up PPVs like crazy and Margarito is the guy they packed the house for to the tune of the largest crowd in Staples' Center history. Plus with the power of 24/7, it's pretty much guaranteed to do significantly better then the one with Clottey.
I'm thinking this fight has the potential to do 1 mil ppvs. You have the Mexican-Americans, Filipino-Americans, and the average Joe Schmoe American.
