I'm afraid Ricky's gonna get his head rattled.

    Yeah, I used to live up in Worthington and I remember them bein' pretty good about playin' some of the bigger sporting events.

    I may call them tomorrow and check for certain?

    I figure I can kill a coupla birds with one stone, hang out with some friends, get drunk and eat some great wings without payin' the $59.

    Or, I may just buy it on PPV? I don't know yet.

    The problem was that Malignaggi was ridiculously overrated since the Cotto loss. Some people were even saying he would outclass Hatton like Mayweather did. Paulie is a very solid fighter and was a good win for Hatton but he is nowhere near Pacman's class and this could be misleading.

    And I'm sure it could be.

    But this is part of what I'm tryin' to point out...

    if Hatton had the difficulty he did against PM, whom is an inferior fighter to Pac, then what can we expect tonight?

    I don't know, Dude? These were the thoughts of mine when I watched that replay earlier.

    For me to feel confident for Ricky tonight I would've had to seen a better performance against PM, which was his last fight.

    Of course, I totally agree. I believe Ricky is not good enough for Manny but we'll see soon enough.

    Floyd the fastest guy Hatton fought.And he did reasonably well.May isn't an aggressive fighter.Great defense first to offence fighter.He coils up waiting for you to innitiate then catches you coming in.He got a nice jab to set it all up and great timing. But sometimes BORING!!

    Pauly is quick but this guy can't really crack and egg, this dudes power is no where near Pac.His power is just irritating than damaging.

    I dont know where you got that.

    Pac's being a vulnerable fighter's what endeared him to his fans.

    Watching his fight is like watching a suspense movie. You never know what will happen next.

    He doesnt have a granite chin, he has been badly hurt by bodyshots, he doesnt have the slickest defensive skills, and he fights aggressively. A recipe to get KO'd.

    His fans know he's not invincible. That's exactly why he's fun to watch.

    I'm a brit. I think Hattons gonna lose, I just can't see Pacman getting beat.

    Also Ricky told me to bet my house on him, which he did against Mayweather... look what happened there :/

    Paulie fought the whole fight only to survive. He was allowed to grab and hold excessively all night. Hard to land punches on someone when they're hugging you the entire fight.

    Man, all Paulie did was try and spoil the fight. If he'd have fought, he would have been out of there sharpish. He was holding on for dear life in every round, spoiling the fight.

    I can't wait for tomorrow, everyones in for a shock.
