Pacquiao is for a beating - Robert Garcia

MANILA, Philippines – Manny Pacquiao will be in major trouble the moment he steps in the ring with Antonio Margarito, according to the Mexican’s chief trainer.

Speaking to fightchronicles.com, Robert Garcia expressed confidence that they have already solved the Pacquiao puzzle and is looking to stop the Filipino ring icon for the first time in more than a decade.

“We’ve been watching a lot of Manny’s fights and we know exactly how to attack him,” he told Joseph Padullon of fightchronicles.com. “We have been especially interested in his fights with (Miguel) Cotto and (Juan Manuel) Marquez.”

Pacquiao, of course, struggled in his two fights with the counter-punching Marquez. Although victorious against Cotto last November, the Filipino ended up with a busted ear, a result of the Puerto Rican's deadly left hooks.

Garcia also went as far as predicting the fight’s outcome.

“(An) 11th-round knockout. This isn’t going to just be a win for Margarito, this is going to be a (expletive) beatdown we put on him (Pacquiao),” he said.

“A big time beating is what we got for Manny Pacquiao,” Garcia added.

Pacquiao and Margarito tangle on Nov. 13 at the Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas for the vacant WBC junior middleweight title.
