    Nopes . . . not counting stature, belts and HYPES . . . it's a pretty much an even fight . . . even including physical attributes of the fighters.

    imo, hatton should be the favorite and a pac win is the true upset. hatton is the naturally bigger guy and you stated that he is undefeated at the weight. pac only have 2 fights above 130.

    Pacman should win but Hatton is a good fighter. I think the pre-Mayweather -Ricky Hatton would have done better. After being stopped by Floyd, he cannot be the same. I do like Ricky though.

    It's a 50/50 fight and I'm sure many can agree with that, though if Hatton wins it will still be considered an upset because Pacquiao is the favorite going in.

    agreed. i dont know how people rate hatton so poorly.
    anyone would think hed lost 20 fights. im not what youd call a fan of his but hes a deadset terror in the ring and hes everything you could want in a fighter. if he was american hed be #1 p4p.
    Hes ganna demolish manny and i will not be at all surprised.

    50 -50 fight... i think hattons size, aggression and strenght could very well negate pacs speed and whaterver advantage he has... with that said i hope pac wins!

    LOL @ all the characters on here that have been saying "Pacquiao will destroy Hatton" and "Pacquiao will ass **** Hatton" for weeks and months suddenly claiming it's 50-50. Collazo, Diaz, Malignaggi, and Lazcano are all picking Pacquiao by KNOCKOUT. We got media guys saying directly to Hatton's face "..Most of us think you can't win, what are we missing Ricky?.." Las Vegas odds are 3-1 in favor of Pacquiao. 80% of 'the experts' are picking Pacquiao. And it's a ****ing 50-50 fight somehow. :rofl Go ****ing figure. I've seen it all.

    it's not even 2:1...it's 3-1

    come to think of it, hatton is much more of an underdog compared to mosley in the margarito fight...the odds then was barely less than 3:1

    even if Margarito let Ricky borrow his gloves, i'd still put my money on Pacman, this here is a shark against a goldfish
