    Pac is an extra odinary fighter, great handspeed, straight left jabs and quick head right lean, attack and bounce, head movements and ring generalship. Only few boxers packed with these skillset. Now who do you think Hatton will hire to provide the exact mimic of Pac?

    anyone?

    They can always get quick hitting, active lefties.

    They don't really have to hit as hard as Manny. They're practicing their gameplans in sparring, not trying to knock each other out.

    He should want Valero, but of course he can't get Valero.
    He should get Ortiz & Juanma.

    Agreed. Any southpaw with fast hands.

    Valeros slow of hand and foot compared to Pac.

    I think Collzao would be good.

    Zab Judah...although I doubt Judah would agree to that with a POSSIBLE match-up between the two...

    Valero is stylistically similar to Pac, Collazo is not.

    If you're Hatton & you need to train to fight a guy like PBF, you don't go hire Winky because his defense is impregnable.

    The bigger version of Calderon for footwork and body movement. But the big Q is who is he?
