LOS ANGELES, California - Manny Pacquiao's next opponent Antonio Margarito is already in Dallas, Texas, where he is making the rounds and meeting his fans.
Margarito looked relaxed and happy as he arrived in Texas with his wife, child and team. A bus with a huge photo of Margarito picked up the group.
In the morning, Team Margarito visited the Dallas Market Hall where thousands of Mexican fans awaited the 3-time boxing champion.
It was a happy scene: there was dancing, fans cheering the Tijuana tornado.
Margarito said he travelled to Texas a little earlier to enjoy the support from the huge Mexican community in the state.
Fans believe Margarito will upset the biggest name in boxing today, which is the Filipino Pacman.
Margarito showed off his muscle - the fruit of very hard training over the last 3 months. He then spent over an hour signing autographs.Later in the day, team Margarito moved on to the Fort Worth Mall for another big fans rally.
Thousands more Mexicans were in attendance.
A mariachi band livened up the event. Fans were thrilled as Margarito declared he is ready to battle Pacquiao. The boxer sang a little bit, keeping in light for now before facing the biggest challenge of his boxing career come Sunday.
The Pacman has been beating up his Mexican opponents for the last five years, but Margarito said he will be the Mexican that will finally defeat the Pinoy, and take along with him as well the championship belt in the superwelterweight division.
