    Just an actual prediction and your customary smirk smilie would have been fine.

    I can't post a smilie now because my post has 5 images in after I quoted you.

    Ya, Pacquiao is not only a southpaw but he's quick as hell. He's Hatton's worst nightmare, in attacking form. He had his problems against counterpunchers with those attributes, I think it would look a mess against Pacquiao.

    I don't know how Hatton can pin him down and wrestle him, hes too bouncy on his feet. That is the only area he can win because Pacquiao's jab is too good from the outside and at midrange he's popping off quicker straighter punches.

    Manny Pacquiao in 10 rounds :deal

    On that firm Pac beats anyone at welter or below excluding maybe Margarito. I'd rather see Pac-Mayweather... its simply massive.

    I think he'd give Margarito one hell of a fight for a while too, Jeff. Up until half way at least.

    Can you really see Margarito pinning him down while he's sharp? The guys too quick on his feet, he'd take advantage of Margarito's sloth like movements for a good while.

    Margarito/Hatton will both get roasted. I like them both a lot but Pac's angles and speed will be the difference,as was last night/day.(Oscar aint the fighter etc, i know)
    Called a Pac points win for last night, was surprised how it ended and as said before last night/day Pac will still roast Hatton.

    Is Pac - Hatton on ?

    cheers

    Hairy :thumbsup
