    Ah, my first post...hello.

    Pac vs Hatton would be an interesting fight, but do we know for definite that the punch will travel up in weight with him? He's one hell of a fighter but I get a feeling he won't be carrying 140 in weight as well as Ricky Hatton, and may find Hatton's pressure too much in his bloated condition.

    We should wait to see how Pac looks against Diaz. We are imagining Pac fighting with the same speed and power as at 130 although we still have to see him at 135. Yes, I've heard he shows up at 145-47 for the fight, but that doesn't prove anything as his opponent is likely to be blowing up as well.

    you used to underrate Pac. You used to say Morales was too Big for Pac. Look what Pac has done to the guy who's suppose to be a naturally bigger than Pac??? Don't underestimate the Power of the Pacman.

    You are precisely correct in pointing out that just because a boxer can weigh 140lbs, it doesn't neccesarily translate into an effective 140lbs.

    At a certain point Pac will not be effective, though his fans sometimes don't understand this.

    While you are only interested to see a Hatton and DLH fight, I'm interested in other fights.. Whatever Pac does, he'll do.. If he wants to fight 135lbers, then he'll do it.. If he wants Hatton after Diaz, then so be it.. I don't see how you think a fight with Campbell or Casa wouldn't be interesting..

    How many times did Pac Proved to you guys that He's not going to be like Arguello??? 112-122-126-130 and now at 135 he's the overwhelming Favorite.

    In Hatton Case, it's proven he's the arguello in his 1st jump in weight. Lazcano, a career Lightweight almost Koed Hatton. What more for a Proven Multi weight ATG like Pac???

    Or perhaps typical case of overestimating weight class? If Hatton is forbidden to clinch like the PBF fight, id favour Pac. If he can clinch, Hatton all the way inside 7 rounds via a bodyshot.

    Hmmm. Seems difficult given to argue given the following observations;

    1. His power has visibly diminished since moving to 130lbs.

    2. He hasn't yet even tried the waters at 135lbs.

    3. We are talking about him going after the best fighter at 140lbs who has been knocked out only once, by the best fighter of 147lbs and the consensus p4p #1.

    The only other person I see retiring Hatton is Mayweather, which is a rematch that shouldn't happen.. I can see you want Pac to retire Hatton, but I see Hatton fighting Mayweather and Malignaggi in his next fights and then possibly Pacquiao.. If he goes this route, then Pac can fight the 135lbers as I would like for him to do until a Hatton fight comes available, but like I said, if he fights Hatton after Diaz, I'm with him..

    Ah, go for the big money/assured loss and avoid serious challenges in Campbell, Guzman, Diaz at Lightweight that are winnable and add legacy points if won.

    Great idea.

    I hate Hatton, but Pac's too small and would be crushed. His punches will have little to no effect on Hatton and he's not strong enough for the inside fighting.
