Margarito maraming sandata laban kay Pacquiao, ayon kay Garcia

MANILA, Philippines - May mga sandata si Antonio Margarito para gibain si Manny Pacquiao.

“Anything... it could be an uppercut, a right hand, a body shot, whatever, he’ll get him with,” wika ng chief trainer ni Margarito na si Robert Garcia sa Fan House kahapon.

Inaasahan ni Garcia, isa ring dating fighter, na mananalo si Margarito sa pag-akyat ng 5-foot-11 Me­xican sa ring laban kay Pacquiao sa Nobyembre 13.

Sinabi ni Garcia na hindi pa niya nakikita si Margarito na mas malaki at mas magaling.

“It was better than ever. Better than when he won his first title, better than when he beat (Miguel) Cotto. This is the time to beat Manny Pacquiao,” sa­bi ni Garcia.

Hindi na mapigilan si Margarito sa kanyang pag­sasanay sa Oxnard, California kung saan siya nagpapagod sa kalsada at sumusuntok sa puno.

Kumpiyansa rin ang dating super welterweight champion kagaya ng kanyang trainer.

“Freddie Roach is sca­red that we’re gonna beat Manny Pacquiao,” sabi ni Margarito, hindi nagustuhan ang prediksyon ni Freddie Roach na mapapa­bagsak siya ni Pacquiao alinman sa seven o eight rounds.

“What, does he think I’m crippled or something?” wika ni Margarito.

Pinagtawanan lamang ni Roach ito.

“He’s too slow. I can say it in front of his face that he’ll quit. I’ll bet he’ll quit. I’ve seen his last two fights,” ani Roach, nasa Baguio City para sa pagsasanay ni Pacquiao.

Gusto naman ni Margarito na patunayang mali ang American trainer.

“It won’t be too difficult. It is just a matter of putting the pressure on Manny and that’s it. At this weight class I am bigger, stronger. I have the confidence that I can put Pacquiao to sleep, no doubt,” ani Margarito. “I am not worried about Roach and his people for cal­ling me dirty. I know I am a clean fighter and I will show it to him and Pac­quiao the night of the fight. I have what it takes to knock Pacquiao out and I will do it.”
