    He's not though according to the tape, and when he's 170lbs he's a fat lump of lard.

    I don't think Hatton is shot. I just think he was never as good as people think. But he is surely getting better with Sr.

    give up, if Hatton loses they will point to the Lazcano fight and the shoelace incident and say he was shot. And maybe they will be right. Malignaggi has zero power, z-e-r-o.

    Pac should win this fight. Thankfully, the odds are pretty close.

    Hatton isnt shot, he is a wee bit out of his prime though, thats not an excuse for him as most people have been saying it before the Pac thing came up

    Pac is the favourite and rightly so but it can go either way

    Depending on how you look a the JLC, Mayweather, Lascano, Paulie run of fights you could argue that Hatton either is or isn't in decline (ie Lascano is a more accurate gauge of his level of perfomance that Paulie, or vice versa) but anyone who thinks he's "shot" after seeing those 4 fights doesn't understand the meaning of the word.

    I personally think that theres every chance that Lascano was just a blip (after a virus that left Hatton unable to train the last week leading up to the fight) and that the domination of JLC and Paulie with the loss to Mayweather sandwiched in the middle shows Hatton has plenty left. Time will tell I suppose.

    :-( When you break a mans ribs and stop him with that one punch it doesn't matter whether he is prime, shot or whatever...broken ribs = end of fight regardless
