PACQUIAO-MARGARITO BOUT - NO REMATCH

According to the Top Rank Chairman and promoter Bob Arum is not keen on putting up a rematch between the Filipino's Champ Manny Pacquiao and Antonio Margarito.

Their 12-round fight for the Super-Welterwieght Title for the World Boxing Council (WBC) turns out to be a competitive and closely-fought bout.


The Top Rank chairman said a rematch is very unlikely, especially if the encounter proves to be a dominant win for Pacquiao or even Margarito will ends up being too much for the world's current top Pound-for-Pound fighter.

“No rematch clause. I don’t believe in rematch clause," said the long-time veteran promoter. Pacquiao prevailing by a mile over the heavy underdog Margarito would no longer be attractive to boxing fans."

“If the fight turns out to be one-sided (in favor of Manny), a rematch wouldn’t be saleable," pointed Arum, who’s been in the boxing business for more than four decades.

The big fight will be on November 13, 2010 Saturday night. (November 14,2010 here at Philippines).
