    ...and he beat 'overrated' hatton? discuss...

    after his win against hatton, some posters are already playing the race card saying pac gets beat by top black fighters... he is still being criticized heavily by some numbnuts. I guess theyll eat crow after pacs career is already over

    Remember..his opponent has got to be of African-American origin, NOT AFRICAN.

    I don't think people don't rate him, I just think that many people for some bizarre reason still see Pac as the raw and rather one-dimensional threshing machine that he was in the first Barrera and first Morales fights. These guys saw those fights, formed an opinion, and so passed judgement in their minds, meaning they are just not appreciating the astounding rate of development in Pacquiao these days. Pacquiao may not have the defensive skills of a Mayweather, but the current version is a far better offensive boxer. His movement, footwork and accuracy mean that he now is a skilled, elusive and all-round magnificent boxer. I feel certain he will prove this beyond all doubt to every boxing fan in the world over the next year or two.

    Should be the haters. :D

    He already beat the fighters he was suppose to lose to . . . he has his #1 fighter rating . . . what more?

    I'm not saying he is unbeatable but he should be rated higher than good. :deal

    I'm dead serious. He still hasn't fought the 'slick' style or the true sweet science.

    Why is Hatton suddenly now swept aside and tagged, *overrated*?

    Merely because Pacquiao beat him?

    How wacky is that reasoning. :blood

    Hatton is, and was, Hatton; one of the absolute best fighters today. But Pacquaio proved he's even better than someone as good as Hatton..........End of story.

    thats what im talking about. many people in these boards think hatton was an overprotected fraud and pacquiao has exposed him for that. imo i dont think hatton is overrated. i consider him underrated because what he did at 140lbs is remarkable and should not be disregarded just because he lost against pac

    Timothy Bradley, Nate Campbell, Zab Judah, Kendall Holt...all are worthy opponents to fight the Great Manny Pacquiao.
