Really? I've heard the opposite. Heard he's coming along slower than usual. Roach recently said hes concerned about Pacman mentally. Apprently, a few days after training camp started, Pac told Roach that he "misses his job" (congress). It might just be Roach trying to sell the fight since most people think this is a mismatch.

Margarito is actually training in my hometown. Oxnard, CA...about 50 miles north of LA. Ex boxer Robert Garcia is working with him at La Colonia boxing gym.

Margarito
heres the thing , Pacquiao Is way too fast for him , EVEN Cotto and De La Hoya Admitted it... If Margarito get the momentum at the first half , then he maybe have a chance to win it.. But I doubt it, This dude is SOLId tho.
He better not be cheating use Elmers Glue or w/e is that shit called haha, I FORGOT. R.I.P. Miguel Cotto's Face.

Everyday there's a conflicting report that comes out. First day Pac is not there mentally, he's looking sluggish, his speed isn't there. Next day he's bruising and cutting up his sparring partners and he looks like his old self. I get that feeling too that they keep leaking negative reports to make it seem that Pac is off his usual game and is vulnerable, but all of his sparring partners and reporters who've witnessed the sessions say he's kicking ass and taking names.
He's sparring Amir Khan, Michael Medina, Glenn Tapia, Vanes Martirosyan, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr... I feel like he's going to breeze through Tony after that lineup. I bet sparring Amir and dealing with his speed and skills is tougher than what Margarito will bring to the ring, but we'll see.
I just think all of their faceoff pics are hilarious, Manny looks like he could be Tony's son. There's been talk of Pac fighting Paul Williams at 147 in May, it'd be like a tree fighting a garden gnome

Clottey is 5'9" I think but he's massive physically, usually comes in at middleweight (160-165 lbs) and is pure muscle.
Margarito is 5'11" or 6' and he's planning on coming in at 160-165 on fight night himself. Won't help his speed but he'll be able to take punches better and if he can catch Manny, he can impose his size, doubt it though but then again I didn't think he would beat Cotto either.
