    Hear Freddy Roach Interview here. He's Really serious about Making The Pac vs Hatton & DLH fight. He said He'll let Pac comes in at 140 with Hatton & DLH. Giving DLH extra 7 lbs at 147.

    DLH would knock one trick Pacman the **** out! That would be a easy nights work for Oscar.

    De La Hoya imho will be too much for Pacquiao.
    And i think Hatton will k.o/bulldoze Pacquiao at 140.

    mis match on both counts. Hatton while beatable wont be beaten by a (much) smaller guy who relies on his power. Hatton would walk through Pac and stop him late... DLH would brutalise him badly. I'm surprised Pac's management team would allow these fights, but then they are the two biggest draws in boxing, so I'm guessing the real motivation here is money.

    one trick? wtf?:huh

    guys like you underrate pac as if he is a bum.

    i could say oscar still wins this fight either by late tko/ko or decision. he already lost his steam when he fought a gatekeeper named forbes.
    i might give him a chance against hatton, like 30/70 chance because there is a big possibility that he'll get KTFO in this fight, considering his smaller frame and hatton being a natural junior welterweight.

    damn pac is really underrated here at esb.

    Ermm.. Pac needs to fight a few fights @ 135 first like Casamayor, Campbell, & Katsidis before a fight with Hatton.. I still doubt that a Pac vs DLH fight will happen as DLH will probably fight a couple more fights before retiring.. Even if he was to fight DLH, he would have to outwork him, tire him down, and stay away from the jab.. DLH has a lot of advantages over Pac.. Pac vs Hatton would be an all out brawl.. Like I've been saying before numerous times, Pac needs to fight top contenders at 135 to see how he fares before thinking about a fight with Hatton or even DLH.. I just hope they know what they're doing and not trying to get Pac into trouble for money fights..

    Pac would probably be KO'd by both guys, especially. The way to beat Hatton is to be bigger than him, and Pac is in no way that. He will probably be KOd by a Hatton body shot. And Oscar is just way too big

    The guys speaking was Roach, who trained DLH recently. He knows what's DLH's weakness & Strenght. He will formulate a game Plan for Pac. He mentioned He wont let Pac ballooned to 147 for DLH. Pac will comes in without extra weight & will use his speed as advantage. PBF beats DLH weighing only 150 lbs at fight night. Pac will comes in around 146 & will attack DLH in & Out. DLh's easy to hit now. His legs are slow. Pac attacks then move out before DLH counters, that's the Game Plan.

    i remember marques hurting pacquiao badly with a body shot in there second fight (which marques won) in the latter rounds, if that was hatton or even oscar landing that shot at 140 or 147 i hate to say it would be good night pacquiao. roach is a dick in all seriousnes

    I agree with the more cynical view.

    The three biggest paydays in boxing are fights with DLH, Hatton and Mayweather.

    i think Pac is a tough fierce warrior, but will be over his head stepping in the ring with either of these fighters.

    In another interview, Roach mentioned he would have no problem putting Pacman in with Wladamir Klitschko. He said Manny's head would be a great addition to his living room decor.
