if hatton can get him to the ropes i think he can smash his ribs in and win by ko or stoppage but not out cold.
You guys overrate his chin. A powerpunching junior featherweight can knock him out today. But they cant land a solid powershot to his chin, because the target fires back hard, and he punches in bunches. If Pac only had average to below average punching power, a featherweight would just blitz him, go real aggressive and knock him TFO in the middle rounds.
dont forget, pac-man looked good against a ****in bum. all this "pac man era" is bull****. hatton would murder him. he looked good, but he's slipping out of prime.
I can totally understand now how ESB just suddenly overrates a top class or an up and coming fighter right after an impressive win. From being doubters or haters, some become blind followers overnight, it seems. I've been following PAcman's career since the mid 1990's and I really believe that he doesnt have the granite chin that some people thinks he has. He just protects it adequately enough for him to not get KTFO.
hmm... is this the same hatton that got KTFO'd by mayweather and a turnbuckle... :deal and now, he's supposed to murder pac? lol:
well if you remember, it didnt take mayweather a million punches to ko hatton, did it? to ko a guy like pac, u need speed and accuracy, and of course good power. mayweather is not a huge puncher but he hits harder then you think and he got speed and accuracy.
Pacquiao isn't invincible. He can be KO'd. You have to catch him first though. He defense, head movement, and footwork, in fact his whole overall game, just seems to keep getting better and better. IMO, JMM had the best chance in their last fight where is was pretty obvious, at least to me, that Pac had outgrown the weight and was weak. I think it'll be harder now, as with the people who have power to do it at 140 and 147 for most part don't have the speed to hit him cleanly with it. He would likely get overpowered by Margarito, Clottey, or Cotto. At 140, call me crazy, but I think Zab Judah has the potential to land one of those quick big shots that could possibly daze Manny. But I doubt it. Maybe the Zab of old, although he wasn't that great either. That being said, I'm Filipino and Manny is my favorite fighter. MANNY, MANNY, MANNY:soccerred
Kendall "Billygoat" Holt would smash him in the face with his head, and then push him over and call it a legit KO.
