    It does sound fun mate, i've just moved to from london down to the south west so it's a fair bit quieter round ere.
    I might discover one though ..

    Power thrills, but speed kills.

    Trouble for Ricky though is that Manny has thrilling power & killer speed. hes also trained by the best, its gonna be a walkover. & Im not saying that just cos I dont like Ricky, Im just being brutally honest.

    Hatton is too slow & predictable to trouble Pac, its going to take more than mauling tactics to beat Manny. Look at Floyd, hes the best, BUT his weakness is that he has no power. He still KO'd Hatton. Manny has chilling power, & like fine wine is getting better with age.

    Pac only took this fight on Hattons terms cos its an easy payday. Trust me. Pac will obliterate Hatton.
    However, like I said about Floyd before, there is no shame in losing to the best. & when Ricky loses to Pac? He can still retire with his head held high. He can retire saying only the very best managed to beat him.

    I don't agree that pac has shown any great power over 130 Dunky. Diaz was hit with punch after punch after punch before he was stopped and Oscar was more outsped and outboxed than hurt. Thats not to say I think Pac has no power at 140 just he hasn't shown anything at all exceptional in that department yet.

    Fine post.

    I agree, Pac is going to destroy him in every aspect. However his fans should not be downbeat about this, they should embrace it and realise he had a good career.

    I always said he had a good career and he's a good fighter, you must have missed it :hey

    These loons have to be kept in check, it may seem like negativity, but in the long term I am doing them a favour as they will not be heartbroken when the inevitable happens. The little Chinese man wins this one, big.

    I think you are talking about Betty, mate. I don't know why people confuse us.

    I picked Hatton. After some deliberating I had a moment of clarity.

    P.S. It's not Ginola ya daft ****

    You gotta remember though Gaz, manny is stopping world level guys, whilst hes moving up. No easy feat. Never mind world level, he stopped an elite fighter(IMO) in DLH in his last fight, after dishing out a sick beating in the process.

    I admire your staunch support of Hatton though, cos you remind me of myself when I was a die hard Scotty fan on here.
    & thats the thing. I always said Scotty was capable of beating ANY fighter on his day at 126, EXCEPT Manny Pacquiao. I was always honest enough to admit that even on Scottys best day, Pac would have won. Its in the archive somewhere!!!

    So when I say Hatton will lose to Pac? Its not as a hater, but as an analyst. By **** though you Hatton fans are lucky, I thought I wouldnt have to go through all this again after Floyd sworded the manc, but here I am again, in a position where I will have to bow down if the arrogant manc somehow pulls off the win!

    Ricky has a lot to thank his trumpet blowing morris dancing fans for, cos its you lot who have got him into IMO a pretty undeserved second crack at the P4P title...

    I do, but if your fight predictions are as bad as your eyesight I'd rather you picked Pac...;)

    TFFP fancies Berbatov, not Ginola.

    I fancy Berbatov as much as it is possible to fancy a man whilst remaining straight.

    Needless to say if I was gay I'd take Berba in a heartbeat.

    Poetry in motion.
