    He wasn't able to get them off though, because as soon as he got in close Paulie was lunging and grabbing, ducking below the waist.

    manny is such a better overall fighter than ricky, and he's equally if not more vicious and determined. I like Hatton, but it'd be very hard for me to bet against Pacquiai.

    Yes.

    No head movement, struggles against southpaws, struggles against quick handspeed. Pacquiao has the activity to punish severely a defensively flawed fighter, and he is both fast and southpaw.

    i think hatton as a lot better chance than DLH, but i wholey agree with Freddy, Pacs going to be like a wasp around his head

    actually one of his KO losses was from an elbow to the chin.

    and anyways both those losses were years and years ago.

    hattons speed is underrated.. and im talking both handspeed and his footwork.. a shot and weightdrained crossdresserl, doesnt come close to what hatton brings to a fight..

    to me its 50-50

    i think the opposite, Pac is tailor-made for Hatton stylewise....Pac needs to be pressured, and that is Hatton's game....and Hatton is not slow, even tho he is not as fast as Pac....

    i was planning on posting the same thing but why bother when you already said it....

    Just wait... i cant believe so many people have pac winning this so easy lol.

    Hatton hits hard, he is not a slow puncher, he puts on very good pressure, pac will have no size advantage (like most guys that give hatton trouble) and inside im willing to bet hatton is the stronger dude.

    This will be a classic, BECAUSE it will not be a one sided fight.... it might end dramatically with a landslide at the end for one or the other... but it will be competetive up until then.

    Coming from a pac fan.. I say it should be a 50/50 fight.

    If either one of them is careless the other boxer can be ko'd!

    It's very interesting if the agreed weight it 140lbs..

    *At 140LBS Hatton NEVER LOST. (his only loss was at 147lbs with pbf correct?!)
    *Pac seems to be at the PEAK of his career right NOW.

    *Both are 30 YEARS old but pac has more fights than Hatton

    I believe this will be a very very exciting fight! The way they fight somebody I don't think it will not go the distance!

    This fight will be reminiscent of Hatton - Stewart
