Pacquiao, the World Boxing Organization welterweight belt-holder, and Margarito, himself a three-time world champ, will appraise the journalists of their chances in their 12-round confrontation set Saturday at the Cowboys NFL arena-turned boxing house.
Wednesday?s presser, set at 1 p.m., is one of the few pre-fight activities in the card, originally said to be a mismatch but is turning out to have awaken the interest of the international boxing community.
