    Really?

    If you belive its 50/50 then you have no future as a bookmaker :p

    Juan Lazcano hurt Ricky, his punch resistance is gone, don't let the Paulie win fool you, Pac will make him look like an amatuer and stop him.

    ps,saying the majority of hatton fans don't know boxing,go down a boxing gym in britain and ask the BOXERS what they think of hatton!

    Good for them, maybe thats why British boxers is such a low standard because thats what they aspire to, our fighters are technically flawed and are novices compared to the Latinos and Americans by majority.

    hatton vs pacman is one of my dream fights...a REAL fight....hatton is a monster at that weight when he is 'right' and pac is , as someone already said, on anther level.....i see the fight being an all action, skillfull brawl, tko either way around round 10....pac 60/40 ....but you write off hatton in this kind of fight at your peril...i cant wait..

    i always said hatton would break paulie in half,he shouldent of been in the ring with hatton.he had 1 decent fight with cotto,and got the **** kicked out of him.
    im no hatton nuthugger,i think he is a good boxer/fighter,a bit of a dick sometimes outside the ring,but were all knobs sometimes.
    i will bet on hatton,maybe i will lose,maybe not,we wont know till fight night:good

    You speak for all these Hatton fans then do you? Whether people who "know boxing" hate Hatton or not (which is bollocks BTW), being a hater makes you no more objective on this fight than being a fan.

    Style wise Pacman would destroy Hatton especially the way he fights now boxing on his toes with lots of speed, lateral movement and power. Hattton's defence is still as open as ever.

    What a fight it could be

    Honestly its 80/20 Pacman!!

    Things that would be different to the Oscar-Pacman fight though
    1-Hatton would be more game
    2-Pacman would land way more clean shot against a lesser defence
    3-Hatton might have a punchers chance for the first 6 round as his stupid come foward style is more relentless

    Things that would be the same
    1-Pacman would win by late TKO
    2-Hatton would struggle with the southpaw same as Oscar (straight left etc)
    3-It would be brutally one sided boxing wise

    Actually the more i read into the fight, the only thing i can say for Hatton is he would have a punchers chance, no more.

    Pacman beat Oscar in a way Floyd couldnt, because of a few reasons, his in and out style, wasp like...Hatton also comes forward like Oscar bu as i say more relentless but with less defence, these things would even themselves out, Hatton might get a small bit more success but get clobbered more also and would get mauled by Pacman in a boxing lesson

    Hatton - Pacquaio would definately be a much closer fight, all depends on wether Hatton can get in close with him and nullify his speed but i definately think its pretty much a 50-50 fight, De La Hoya was woeful last night and age clearly caught up with him not taking anything away from Pacman as i admire him very much but it would be a lot tougher against Hatton.

    I don't even think Ricky has a punchers chance, when was the last time he Ko'd someone? Ricky can't hit hard enough to do enough damage to Manny, Hatton would gety Ko'd faster tha Pbf did to him, this fight is the END for Hatton

    Hatton troubled Paulie enough and he's a durable fully blown 140 lb'er

    People are going WAY overboard about Pacman's win

    Have you ever seen him fight before? He's not turned into Superman overnight.

    Oscar was DEAD at the weight. That's at least half the story.

    He stopped Malignaggi, which Cotto couldn't do. Manny hasn't been hit seriously at LW, so there's a fair chance of Hatton doing some damage, especially with his body shots. I'd still favour Manny, but it'd be a competitive fight.
