    When this fight was first announced I thought pac would win easily and that he would definatly KO him.

    Now I am starting to like Hatton more and more. The main issue here is Mannys speed and Hattons chin. If Hatton can take his shots then Manny is in for a long night. On the flip side, if Pac's handspeed is able to catch ricky repeatedly like he did Oscar, he wills stop him.

    To much has been made about Pac's win over Oscar, Oscar was drained and he said manny doesnt hit that hard his problem was mannys speed. I think hattons strength will be a big factor in this and am leaning to him stopping manny or descisioning him.

    But still its a hard pick, it is a 50/50 fight. If I see the first round, I could tell you for sure who would win. :)

    You're betting on Hatton?

    How will a 100 dollar bet pay out, Hatton KO?

    I have a gut feeling that Hatton might win this fight, but I am not 100% on that feeling.

    I don't think that it is that much of a risk.
    The two factors that are unknown:
    1) cuts/head clashes
    2) the referee letting Hatton fight his fight

    There is always a risk! Especially when the fight has a vast disparity in talent. PAC is by far more talented. What helps Rick is that he's bigger and stronger. But the speed of PAC and the skills of PAC should be enough to nullify the advantages Ricky clearly holds. The ref should do his job properly.....let the men fight but don't let "wrestling" as Ricky likes to do. I think Floyd may have took that away from Ricky.

    You didn't heed my advice to counter bet? I told you it's suicide. First time I warned you was PAC/DLH. i guess, you really can't teach old dog new tricks. :hat

    Your net winnings between your last 2 wagers on Manny Pacquiao fights is still pretty damn good. :thumbsup

    But it still was a bonehead bet.

    I threw a 20 on Hatton win...20 bucks would have netted me 60 + my original 20.

    So..60 X 5=300 bucks??!!

    best 20 I ever threw away.

    oh, and this is a great bump!!
