    Matter a fact if Pac gets going I actually think he can stop Soto.
    But Pac has to be on, he can't have a Solis moment here where he slack off.
    Not to mention Soto would be moving up in weight to fight Pac.
    Imo soto for me still poses a threat to pac. He is not on the same caliber as solis is. I think soto can be regarded as a class-a fighter. That loss of soto to guz, though a wide ud, did not in anyway, put his credibility down for me. Soto is a punch-mixer who likes to give many variations of punches to the head and body. He also is very innovative sometimes, especially facing a not too special fighter.( i can recall he did a double lead right uppercut one time.) And no i would not say soto is like margarito in any terms. Soto is more technically sound than margarito i dare say, though margarito is a greater fighter in many aspects such as heart, durability,accuracy,fightplan and power. He also has a very orthodox stance while margarito comes forward to his foe on a more "fronting up" stance.

    Anyways i can still see pac get through with a win on this one. Possibly a late round stoppage.
    I think you missunderstood me by no means was I comparing Solis to Soto.
    I said I hope Pac doesn't have a Solis moment here. Meaning Pac will try and cruise by and will not look good. That's what I meant by my comment.

    Also unfortunately Pac is that much more of a fighter then Soto. Soto wont back down and that will be his dismay, Pacs got the power over him and if Soto decides to trade he's done.

    I COMPLETELY and 100% disagree that Soto is an A-Class figther.
    Sotos unfortunately not fought enough top level opposition to be considered A-Class caliber. At best I can say he's a B-Class fighter because he's fought Kelly (which was yrs. ago) and I had Kelly up by 2 points. I thought he won the Juarez fight by a point. The Guzman fight was all Guzman and tho Soto never gave up it's still a loss.
    Sotos def. a live opponent and I think he will give it his all but aside from the Juarez win nothing there leads me to believe he can beat Pac.

    I'll say the same thing I said before, Pac would have to fight a really bad fight to loose here. He's just much more superior then Soto.

    Ok i stand corrected. For now on for me, soto is a b-class fighter. Thnx i think i need a little "head check" when i said he is an a-class fighter.

    In a moment of full clarity....I asked if any one saw similarities between Soto And Margarito some time ago ? And yes.....I see a couple but would not rate him a capable doppleganger Of Tony Lol.He is aggressive and Frontal,has a varied arsenal and some nice range.....thats pretty much it though Imo.Level of comp defiantly in different leagues.

    Both of them, has very nice uppercuts. Though on the power department, tony dominates easily.

    The stamina/endurance increase late,level of adversity experienced and ability to impose ones natural strengths separate Soto/Margarito as well.I think over all Pac can Decide how this one will go but Soto will be after him and not a walk in the park.
