MANILA, Philippines — Trainer Robert Garcia has a recurring image of what his fighter Antonio Margarito would do to Manny Pacquiao on November 13 in Dallas.
Garcia said Margarito’s sheer advantage in size and strength would overwhelm Pacquiao, who, he sees getting trapped on the ropes and Margarito unloading heavy blows.
“Every time I watch him the job we have seems a little bit easier,” Garcia told Doug Fischer of The Ring.
“That sounds crazy to anyone who watched what Pacquiao did to (Ricky) Hatton and (Miguel) Cotto and (Joshua) Clottey. When you watch Pacquiao fight live, it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement, because his speed and power is so unbelievable that you don’t notice what he’s doing,” observed Garcia, who will be working Margarito’s corner for only the second time.
“He (Pacquiao) seems unbeatable. But if you really study him – somebody that really knows boxing – you see a lot of mistakes,” added Garcia, stressing that Pacquiao “backs up easy.”
Garcia believes that such weak point in Pacquiao’s arsenal will be exposed by them come fight night at Cowboys Stadium. Read More >>>
