Kelly Pavlik May Land on Pacquiao vs Margarito Card
By Rick Reeno
BoxingScene.com was informed about the strong possibility that former middleweight champion Kelly Pavlik (36-2, 32KOs) will make his return on the pay-per-view undercard to Manny Pacquiao-Antonio Margarito on November 13 at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Pavlik has been on the shelf since dropping a unanimous decision to Sergio Martinez in April. The opponent is under discussion, but I've heard the guys at Top Rank want someone who is going to test Pavlik. I've been told the weight will be a max of 164, give or take a pound.

Margarito's License Approved, Pacquiao Fight is On!
By Lem Satterfield
It's official, Antonio Margarito will face Manny Pacquiao for the vacant WBC 154-pound title on November 13 at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Margarito's application for a boxing license in the state of Texas was approved, according to an official from the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation.
Last February, Margarito's license to box was revoked by the California State Athletic Commission following a hand-wrapping scandal which took place before his fight with Shane Mosley in January 2009. Margarito's ability to apply for a new license began on February 11.
Last Wednesday, Margarito the CSAC turned down Margarito's application to obtain a license to box in the state of California. The Mexican boxer faxed over an application to Texas later that day. The Pacquiao-Margarito tour is expected to start next Tuesday in Los Angeles, followed by stops New York on September 1, and Dallas on September 2.

people forget Pacquiao took some punishment from Cotto. He didn't show it in the ring cuz he's a sav but he took some hard shots that did some damage (busted ear drum, etc.). Margarito might not have cement in his fists anymore but he still is the bigger stronger guy going into this fight.
I think pac should still be the heavy favorite, but don't be surprised if pac gets backed up, rocked a couple times and forced into some tough situations.
Unless Margarito is completely shot, which I don't think is the case, this should be an entertaining fight.

Arum said his son, John, 49, has been gone since leaving for the hike on Sunday night. Arum was planning to board a afternoon flight from the Southland to Seattle.
"They've got search parties looking for him right now," Arum said of his son.

If Pac-man is as good as his dick riding fans wants to let everyone believe, then this should be a easy fight for him. Stop trying to sell people on this bullshit fight. If Pac-man loses this fight then he was a HBO hype job like I stated before. Stone-Hands got beat half to death by the so called washed up old man Mosley. No way should the great Manny have any problem with this dude at all. Stone Hands is slow, has no defense, and Mosley took his heart.
