    Actually yes I do, I think Mayweather Sr has done a great job helping Oscar out and Oscar has visably gotten better with Sr.
    Fighters can and do Change their styles example Barrera vs Hamed, Holyfield vs Tyson.

    I think not only are they gambling on Hatton to be the same old Ricky but they also assume he is mentally weak which is why you get all this trash talk from Freddie, he said 3 rounds and Hatton will be out of there.

    Yet on the last 24/7 says if we dont fight the right fight we will be in for a long night. They dont know really what to expect from Ricky cus there is only one fight of him with Sr for them to study, while there is plenty of tape on Pacquiao.

    I think Hatton wins this fight

    that's all hatton needs to do to take him up another level. and remember he's been very succesful upto now without that.

    That might take him up another level, but he's still a long elevator ride beneath the pound for pound boss.

    hatton can lean to angles and hit round the ribs...but he doesnt use his feet to shift himself to a side angle in a very subtle, slick and lighting fast way that manny does..

    Yeah, we did see. I underrated Pacquiao, no doubt about it. I underrated his power.

    Can't believe Hatton kept gettin' caught out by the hook n' duck technique Manny kept using.

    Ctazyness.
