    This tells us that Pac looks great against a B level tomato can. Hatton has better footwork and quicker hand speed than Diaz and wont just hold up his guard and allow Pac to unload.

    It tells us that regardless of the opponent, pac would still look good. Unfortunately, we cannot say the same thing about hatton who recently struggled with b level fighters. But this is still a 50/50 fight in my opinion.

    nothing, I dont think David and Ricky have the same style. Pac's preparation will be different.

    He was all out attack and not respecting diaz.

    Btw Diaz is a southpaw... That's how pac fights against southpaws.

    That Pacquiao is a boxer?In effect **** all...I doubt Hatton will watch this fight for an insight to Pac, he'll watch the DLH fight and probably the Marquez fights.

    Nothing much-i mean both are brawlers but hatton brawling style is different from david diaz style. Hatton likes to hold a lot and wrestles with his opponent.

    All pac need to do is stay outside and used his speed against hatton. If he can do that and not get into a wrestling match with hatton then i see him winning this fight.

    Pac fights really well against other southpaws.

    Diaz doesn't have the foot/handspeed or power of Hatton, neither does he have FLoyd Sr in his corner......basically this fight tells you nothing.

    Hatton vs. Pac is 50-50 because of the variables rather than the two fighters involved.

    I've said Pac via cuts/ref stoppage around 7/8th round since the fight was announced, but as it gets closer, I keep wonfering how Pac will react if Hatton gets hold of him. If he does that is.

    It only tells us that Pac is on another level from the David Diaz' of this world. They don't even come close.

    it tells me that David Diaz was quite possibly the worst 135 champ out there.

    It tells us that Pacman can fight comfortably at 140, which is important. He is quicker than Ricky and all around a better boxer. Can Ricky fight the fight of his life and be as good as he was before Mayweather beat him. You can bet that Mayweather is wishing for a Hatton win. That way he beat the guy who beat Pacman.
