    i think hatton vs oscar would be a better fight then this circus act on december 6, hatton has never fought below 140 and oscar would be coming down making it more even, both have lost to mayweather and the winner could get a mayweather rematch, i don't see how people can complain about a potential hatton vs De la hoya match up and at the sametime endorce pac/DLH which is much more of a mismatch as pacquiao hasn't even faced the best at 135 and didn't even dominate super feather

    the ideal fight would be pacquiao vs hatton, while being a super fight and financially rewarding to both, this would be a great styalistic match-up and potentially a very exciting fight, manny's better skills would make up for any size difference, this would also give manny the chance to beat someone who's actually best at the weight.

    Pacquaio might win by TKO when Oscars eyes are cut and massively swelling.

    I think Hatton vs DeLahoya would be more of a mismatch. Sure Hatton has never fought below 140 but he is still really small, with a short reach, and it is also a worse style match up in my opinion.

    Honestly, Hatton DID look better than he did against Lazcano, but he STILL lunges in leaving his head wide open. Pauli was a sitting duck and had many opportunities to counter.

    Oscar & Pac > Hatton...KO

    hitman vs. pac-man would have been the best match up. they are both closer in size and they are all out agressive fighters. dlh needs go away for real.

    I agree, Hatton would give DLH a tougher fight than Pacquiao.

    DLH KOs Hatton
    Hatton KOs Pac
    DLH KOs Pac

    IMO

    yer, and pacquiao is a giant with a great defence :patsch

    are you serious? how can a guy that was fighting at 106 when de la hoya was fighting gatti at 147 be a more credible match then hatton who has never fought below 140 and comes in at 152 come fight night

    both hatton and pacquiao have a similar approach, basically their fast brawlers and pacquiao will walk on to the left hook from DLH as much as i hate to say it

    :good

    pacquaio vs hatton would be so good and my point is anyone who endorses pac/DLH can not have any complaint with hatton/DLH at 147 because as i said de la hoya would be losing more weight then hatton would be putting on and going down weight especially at 30 + takes more out of you then putting on 7 pounds
