Just watching this Hatton - Pac countdown program and they showed a recent interview with Hatton. He looks a lot better than usual. He normally looks really gaunt and ill at this point. His face looks a lot fresher this time, no massive definition in the face like normal. No cold sores or any **** like that. Must be because he hasn't had to lose as much weight this time?
he didn't put on as much weight between the millie vanilli fight and this training camp plus he's been out in vegas for far longer then usual (4/5 weeks)
I am just pointing out the fact, that he looks fat in the face. He is always lean, and you can really see his cheek bone's etc..
There's a difference between looking healthy and fat. Hatton will look a little bit more defined around the face come weigh in time. But the fact that he's no longer lifting silly heavy weights (a big no no for a world class boxer in my opinion.) Has proper nutritional advice etc etc Is a big plus in my opinion (and i'm picking Pacman to win the fight at the moment) As a result of the above he's probably only had to start drying out very recently were as before he'd be dehydrated for a fortnight. In fact i'm leaning more to towards Ricky now. Especially given that James will be there.
I agree with Kool, Hattons face at this point is usually alot more chiselled. He face is still quite fat, but maybe its just the change of training regimes i dont know, but you would think he was still a few weeks away from the fight going by whats he normally looks like at this stage before a fight.
Yeah I think Hatton made the weight better this time round, maybe he is taking Mayweather's advise of taking it easy between fights, it's about time.
I have a gut feeling that Hatton will win this fight, but it won't be easy. Difficult fight to predict, but Mayweather could be the difference.
