Roach starts homework: KO in nine

are you serious? rewatch the fight.

better movement, better defense, more accurate, better timing etc

 

great stuff.

speed kills, and hatton is going to be catching a lot of shots. if a counterpunching genius like jmm, gets befuddled and tagged by the speed of pacquiao, what's a front runner like hatton going to do? the only danger pac faces, is what he does when hatton begins to instinctively grab and punch.

 

This is the first seriously accurate thing anyone has said about this fight in weeks.

 

For someone who posts a lot of sense generally, whenever Hatton is mentioned you turn into an irrational idiot....did he **** in your fermented shark?, or **** your dog?...which is it?

 

We'll see who looks like the irrational idiot after the fight, won't we?

 

if hatton wins descively, what will your comments be regarding hatton the next day?

 

I won't be here...

It's a toss up if I'm alive.

 

Ricky will try to box but as soon as he gets tagged hard he'll resort to rushing, wrestling and using his head. Don't be surprised if a head-butt occurs. Of course Pac will see it all coming a mile away and punish Ricky badly. I will almost feel sorry for Hatton after this beating considering how foolish he looked against PBF. I will explain to you Hatton Maniacs precisely how Pac will beat him as the fight gets closer.

 

:good

 

Hatton didn't have to do much different against Paulie (thats not to say he could have even if he wanted to). Any extra boxing or guile would have suited Paulie, thats why Hatton steamrollered Paulie more impressively than Cotto. Sustained and insessant pressure.

 

He's sure gonna have to do something different this time. I wouldn't like to be "changing it up" for the first time against the p4p #1! He's gonna come out looking like he just fought Jon Thaxton! :good

 

I hope he doesn't alter anything, the last thing he should be doing is dithering around in the middle distance against Pac, he will get pot shotted with that straight left. He needs to get in early and make it as ugly as possible.
