Maybe, but 148 is not a natural FIGHTING weight for Pacman. He was only that heavy because he expected DLH to be in the ring at 154. Pacman could probably still make 130, Hatton couldn't
he went in 147 against diaz and 145 against marquez. he was already weight drained during his last fight at 130 against marquez. he was supposed to fight diaz because of difficulty making weight but instead he fought JMM at 130 for the title. pac definitely looks thicker and broader when he fought Oscar.
It is..During David Diaz fight, Pac weighed 147lbs during fight night and he still have his speed and power..
Hatton is only taller by 1 inch. He may come out heavier, but not much because Pac is used to weigh 152 at fight time. But as mentioned by many posters, Pac is the faster fighter. Hatton will be stopped at his heels w/ Pac's combinations of jabs and lefties. Yes, he is his biggest opponent but not necessarily faster.
Dont agree.I think he will get full credit for it. Pac doesnt get shortchanged in the credit department by any stretch;case in point,he gets TOO MUCH credit for the DLH win.
i really hope if hatton beats pac, all these people saying pac is the same size as hatton won't all come out and say hatton won because pac was much smaller.
Hatton has fast feet too! the problem i see in hatton why he would have difficulty on pac is because of his style and pac's southpaw stance. Proper game plan is the key for hatton not his strenght nor size.
