WORLD title contender Abner Mares is rooting for his fellow Mexican Antonio Margarito, but he believes Manny Pacquiao will walk out as the victor on Nov. 14 at the Cowboys Stadium in Texas.
Mares, an unbeaten bantamweight prospect, thinks Pacquiao has all the tools that can defeat the former Mexican world champion.

?If it comes to choosing over country, then obviously I?ll go for Margarito, but as a spectator and as a fan, I think Pacquiao has pretty much everything to beat Margarito,? the 24-year-old Mexican said in a report posted at Boxing-newsonline.net.
All set
Pacquiao and Margarito will be slugging it out for the vacant World Boxing Council light middleweight crown.
?If an older Shane Mosley did it, I don?t see how Pacquiao wouldn?t. Margarito has trouble with fast fighters and people who aren?t there to get hit and Pacquiao is one of them. So I think Pacquiao should win this fight.?
An aging Mosley, at 37, outhustled and stopped Margarito in the ninth round of their World Boxing Association welterweight battle last year.
