    He may have to retreat though and give ground especially in the early rounds because hatton will just cut the ring off, with his footwork which his underrated.

    Remember how terrible Pac's balance was when he fought Morales??? PAc would attack, become off balance and basically back pedal until Morales cornered him. Well, his balance is tons better now, and now Pac knows how to turn guys, and let those fast hands go. Pac won't have to go looking for Hatton. This type of fight is right up Pac's alley. I see Pac shining from start to finish, and finishing Hatton in about 8 or even less. Pac can fight going backwards, the question imo is can Pac fight inside. I think he can fight backwards and inside when he has to.

    Whats uo with all these gays ass bets ppl want to do on ESB?? If you think its a winner then go lay some cash on that and get paid. thats where the money is at, not gay bets like the one you want to do. I put $1000 on dont go 10.5 rounds, that will win you $2200 go bet that

    I think Pac has this aspect covered. Im sure that Pac won't be going straight back but instead in angles where he will have just enough space to land some nasty uppercuts and body shots and make Hatton think twice about bullying Pacquiao. I think that if Hatton can get Pacquiao against the ropes he's good but if hatton is forced to fight in the center of the ring he is toast. Either way it should be a hell of a fight

    The big question i think what needs answering apart from rihanna being well developed:lol:. Is can pac handle hatton on the inside because if he struggles then it could be a long night for him.

    Mayweather Sr knows pacman better than roach does himself.. it seems..

    Floyd was stating how pac throws like an amatuer and how their routines in training are repetitive.. Well he's spot on about that..

    That would be the best plan for Pacquia, to catch Hatton while he is comming in then step off to the side, take a bite but dont take more than you can handle Hatton is no joke.

    if he does not go backwards that is not the only way to beat him, Hatton can fight fire with fire, which will help Hatton more than Ricky being the bigger man, or Hatton can and probably will try out some of them newer boxing skills he is picking up from Sr, which will throw a Manny and Roach for a loop if they didnt plan for this.

    Yes sir I think the first 2 or 3 rounds will be close and exciting, but I think Hatton will have him summed up from the 4th on, Hatton by TKO round 9

    One fighter is training to stay center ring, and avoid body shots, and use his great offense to keep the other guy defensive all the time...and the other fighter is training to use a power jab to get inside, and use defense and body punching along with a big left hook to wear down his opponent. Pac imo will be able to fight inside when he has to. Can Hatton slow Pac down is probably the real question lol. We have a lot of questions don't we lol. Sweet Scientist started all of this lol...

    Im a kid? what are you talking about? Im the one that told everybody empty there banks on Pacquaio against DLH, told everybody Margarito has no shot against Mosley, and im telling everybody put everything they got on this fight not going 10.5 rounds. If you want to make some money on saturday then do it, because after the fight im cashing in $2200 player
