Watching Pac-DLH again makes me believe...

Thats what i was saying.

Both fights were a near total domination for Hatton/Manny and niether will give you much insight in how this fight will pan out

 

Pac could dart in & out and pot-shot Ricky or Hatton could break Pacs ribs. Either could happen.

 

This is a 50/50 fight up until the first round... whoever establishes their gameplan wins this fight.

 

oh i gotcha..you are spot on

 

More than a few interesting questions:
-PacMan's effectiveness if forced to fight backwards for most of the fight
-Hatton's effectiveness fighting a quick, fast moving southpaw
-PacMan's response of Hatton moving in quick, but with headmovement and smart aggression, also his grabbing and wrestling
-Hatton's defense vs. PacMan's never stopping laser straight left
-PacMan's defense vs. Hatton's destructing body blows, especially if thrown on the inside
-Hatton's response to PacMan's speed
-PacMan's response to Hatton's phyiscal advantage, pressure

 

pac and hatton are working on those questions in their camp right now through sparring. This fight will be won inside the boxing gym... proper preparation and gameplan is the key.

 

Oscar was dead on his feet the entire night. How are you going to get anything out of that fight?

But yes, Hatton will have to fight Pac like he fought Tszu, because in the center of the ring it will be all Pac. Hatton also avoid any big left hands as he's coming in, something I don't know if he'll be able to do.

I think Hatton will be much tougher for Pacquaio than either Hoya or Diaz but in the end I favor Pac to be the last man standing.

 

Old Tszyu was not the same fighter to present prime Pac.

 

Sorry mate but Manny will get tagged...... he is far from unhittable

 

hatton's head is an easy target...hatton cares so much protecting his body

 

hattons foot speed is very underated i see..lol..pacman will get hit mauled and hurt

 

There's nothing false about Manny Pacquiao. He's on top of his game right now.

 

I think he means.... If Manny comes in the ring expecting a similar fight to Oscar he will get a big suprise

 

exactly...roach may be gassing his head up

 

A champion like pac knows better than that. :good

i'm sure he's working his ass off in the gym trying to find ways to bigger his chances against a different fighter in hatton.
