Hatton - Pac: Ring Magazine Vote

And on top of that, every fight people say Hatton might lose on cuts.

'Mayweather has sharp punches, he'll cut him'

'Malignaggi throws slashing punches, he'll cut him'

'Lazcano is quite rough, he'll cut him'

Boring.

The Ingle quotes....

John

Pacquiao's ferociousness will see him through. He never takes a backward step. Hatton's strong but I thought the Malignaggi win flaterred him a bit. I never thought Malignaggi were any good to start with. Pacquiao's not a one punch hitter but I think he will be too fast.

Dominic

It'd be good for British boxing if Hatton wins but I think Pacquiao beats him to a standstill. Too strong, too fast, too accurate. The Mayweather defeat dented Hatton's confidence, proved to him that he is not infallible and he seems to have slipped since. In contrast, Pacquiao is still on the rise. Pacquiao's the better boxer. Hatton will no doubt try and jump on him but, even if it's a war, he will still come off second best.

Brendan

Pacquiao should win, probably on a cut but it's only 60-40. Hatton will give anyone that wades in a fight but he cannot afford to get cut in the first four rounds. If he can come through that unscathed, I've a sneaky feeling he might spring an upset. It'll be a cracking fight while it lasts but I side ever so slightly with the Pac fella.

Brendan was, as is generally the case, pretty complimentary toward Hatton.... Dominic as usual dismissive, whilst John is in between.

God knows that I am not a fan of the Ingle's however unfortunately and you don't know how much I hate to say this but Dominic I think is spot on. I really think Hatton's best and only chance is to get Pacman into a tear up but the trouble with this is that I can see Pacman prevailing in a tear up as well. Those who think Hatton is the stronger man are going to be in for a shock come the fight. In fact stylistically not only is Pacman all wrong for Hatton it is a worse fight for Hatton than even PBF was and that is saying something.
