No Matter what Floyd SR. Teaches Ricky, as soon as Pac lands a solid punch......everything goes out the window and that is exactly what Freddie wants to happen! I see Hatton coming on a like bull for the first couple of rounds, and Pac using angles and foot work to keep turning him. Ricky will take a battering and then do exactly what he did against Floyd Jr.........he will go out and go all out and get KO'd.
Hatton doesn't seem to take a punch well at 147, at 140 he has been at his best, but I don't doubt Pac stopping him.
you can also say this aint lazcano or a one haded featherfisted fighter like Paulie. youll see come may 2.
How do the people who think Zoo was in semi-retirement when he fought Hatton explain the fact he'd had a fight just 6 months before Hatton against a guy he's fought 3 years before that did better in the second fight?
Mayweather KO'd him out with sharp, accurate punches he didn't see. Hatton took bombs off of the very hard punching Tszyu, he took punches of Urango, so your theory has just been shitted on.
hatton has never taken punches that well i mean he took paulie's great last time out, o wait malignaggi has feathers in his gloves collazo, mayweather, urango, lascano, magee all hurt hatton so i believe pac has the opportunity to hurt him too even coming up from 130 it wont be necessarily the concussive power that will hurt hatton but more so pacs speed and timing which will stun hatton
IMHO theres just as many questions (probably more) about Pacs power at 140 as there is about Hattons chin. Pac had to hit Diaz with everything but the kitchen sink at 135 to get a late stoppage on acclumination of punches. Oscar was a similar story. Both were great boxing displays by Pac but he didn't show a great deal of power against what were basically stationary targets.
well for me it comes down to styles,right now bellow 140 only a master boxer like Mayweather or JMM will beat Pac,i dont see a guy that comes straight ahead with his chin up in the air and throwing one punch at a time beating Pac.
