    Alot of people say DLH vs Pac is a circus because of the size advantage. But defied all odds and destroyed DLH. DLH might be a shot, but he didnt look that shot when he was fighting PBF.

    My props to Pac, id like to see Pac vs Hatton. and i think Pac will win at junior welterweight.

    It will be Pac's speed against Hatton's rugged style of boxing. If Hatton is able to grab and box, it could be a long fight for the pacman.

    Pac better get some training on how to clinch ala Mayweather.

    Totally different fight. I give Hatton a chance, actually.

    I got much love for hatton but after tonight I think the only person that has a shot at beating manny is Mayweather

    Hatton has no shot against Pacman. Manny is just too damn fast for him. It will be exciting but one-sided like this fight.

    I still give Pac the edge in this one, but anyone who thinks this will be a walkover is talking out of their arse. Hatton actually utilizes footwork, unlike De La Hoya, and isn't afraid to pull the trigger, unlike De La Hoya.

    it'll be a very competetive fight and pac would be bothered by ricky's style, hope this fight gets made. it'll be a candidate for FOTY 2009

    If Ricky's defense improves, then Pac is in for a tough fight. But overall, I'd still say Pac takes this. He has ****ing fast hands.

    lol, one sided? it's a 50/50 fight. mannys quick but hatton will be landing too, hatton's got quick feet so he will catch up with him. oscar wasn't landing, that's the difference.

    The way I see it, it's 70/ 30 in favor of manny and definitely see the possibility of a knockout victory for Manny. I also think Hatton does have a shot of koing Manny as well, but realistically I see him taking it to the distant and getting a UD if his rough house tactic bother Manny enough.

    Man I give up, you guys are ****ing hopeless. Has Pac EVER been a favored in a hypothetical on this ****ing forum? EVER? Goddamn who else does he have to beat to convince you guys he's the real deal?

    I say Hatton, that could be stupid i know. But it would probably be very close for the most part, unless Ricky just has too much trouble with Pac's speed.
