    The bookies currently have it as a 80/20 fight in favour of Manny Pacquiao to win.

    I have it around 60/40 in favour of Pac.

    There are still some questions about Pac at the weight against a seasoned guy like Hatton there, imo.

    i think it depends on whether hattons punch resistance has gone or not..tough to tell against malignaggi....
    if it has, pacman 70/30, if not i think ricky 70/30.
    as it stands 50/50 fight.

    50-50 for me

    Hattons size is major factor, and pacmans skill counter-acts that!a very good big guy against a great small guy.....although the size difference is not that much ( a few lbs )

    They are some crappy odds you've got there.

    You can get Pacman at as little as 65% chance.

    Who with?

    The best odds I have seen for Pac are 1/2 and Hatton 2/1 (BF). Whats that?

    to check all the odds on this or any fight goto oddschecker.com it compares the prices of 19 different bookies for each fight currently pacman is bestprice 1.53 and fatton 3.1 with betfair

    i belive the bookies have got it spot on however the odds for this fight will change as hatton fans will bet on him on the days upto the fight therfore his price will shorten and pacman will drift then i predict about 4hours before the fight the sensible money will come for pacman this is an identical pattern as to what happened when fatton fought mayweather

    8/15 at William Hill.

    Might even get better as this closes in, I suspect many UK punters will take the underdog.

    Yea, I should think that there will be large backing for Hatton in the UK, as the fights gets closer, simply because he's British. This will probably bring his price in.

    Having said that I think a lot of people remember the Floyd fight though and perhaps are firmly in the Pac camp simply because of that. Pac is not Floyd though and is obviously stylistically different.
