    "Hatton pumps his hands before he throws a punch. He is a sucker for the right hook and this is what we worked on.


    "He cocks back before he throws his punches. He fights the same way over and over.



    "I studied tapes of all his fights for the last two months and I know him as well as I know my own fighter."

    Roach was watching tapes, while Floyd was in his car ordering a big mac at McDonalds. He was on the phone with ricky telling him to run 10 miles cause he might be a little late.

    the training clip they showed on episode 4 where roach said, enough! he's down already!
    that was the exact same punch that put down hatton the first time.

    that last sequence was perfect.......he threw a punch and then stepped back, and when Ricky lunged he stepped to his left and fired that left hand.

    It was Beautiful, Brutal and perfect!

    Hatton's tactics & defence were worse than ever. Unbelievable. Pacquiao ruthlessly took advantage. Every exchange looked ominous for Hatton.
