I'll kill myself.. or at least some sort of mid-size animal +/- 200lbs. 
I'm scared.. people... i'm scaredded
Here's my =POST FIGHT= analysis
Pacquiao went into the fight, notice he's all meat..
Margarito while heavier, being so much taller probably means his additional weight is mostly bone weight.
Most of that 17lbs difference is some water, glycogen, and his meal that day.
so having the same amount of muscle, but less weight to carry, pacquiao dominated with greater agility and snap punching, not to mention that extra mile in endurance.
Dropping 17lbs so close to fight night, is a terrible idea.. Even under the assumption that these super athletes have bodies that recoup faster and better. Margarito didn't have enough time to revitalize. This is a mistake in "coaching" and inexperience, I would say.
When I was seriously weight drained during a stomach flu, I merely lost 10lbs at the end of it. 17lbs is extreme and probably dangerous.
Every fighter manny fights seems to be completely grounded in comparison.. The only fighter that i've seen with manny's robust running, is floyd..
That would certainly be the most epic fight, since they both play a similar game.
