    BUT full credit must be given to manny pac. this guy started as flyweight and is now knocking out top junior welterweights

    Hatton went in face first against pbf and it took 10 rounds before floyd flattened him

    He fought his usual fight. Whoever thoughts two training camps with Mayweather will change Hatton into Muhammad Ali must have serious issues. That's how Hatton made a career fighting, some improvements can be added but a complete change is nearly impossible. He just realised that Pac's power is too much for him and was taken out.

    And thats what ppl did expect - some improvements. Keeping your hands up, moving your head, not throwing left hooks with your chin up in the air from three yards away. Floyd taught him this but he couldn't or didn't want to learn.

    but tbh the only main thing what hatton didnt do and should of done was through the jab he was diving in for the hug to rough him up no chance, it was pacs dream fight, but hatton needs to sort out who trains him lee beard or Sr cos nothing can wreck a fighter up by giving him differnt styles of training

    hatton is one dimensional, he will never change

    he is one of the best at what he does, INSIDE BRAWLING
    no one can do what he does at such a relentless pace

    but when you are fighting at the very top level, you will alway come unstuck if this is the only way you can fight

    freddie roach did an amazing job training pac for this fight, but to be totaly honest it realy was not that difficult because he knew, we all knew what hatton was gonna do when the bell rang

    same goes for the mayweather fight

    Hatton might have fought the wrong fight but that is his usual style of fight. The right fight against Pac is a counter punching style and Hatton is not a counter puncher.

    But get out of that excuse that Hatton is on the slide. No one said before the fight that Hatton is on the slide and when he lost, suddenly he is on the slide. Why don't you just give props to Manny. Just accept that Manny is really strong and everything will make sense.

    Hatton needed a training montage and then get really happy to visit a museum at the end. Those training camps take no time at all, yield fantastic results, plus you get to be a tourist in your own city!

    Hatton went without using any defense, but Pac deserves lots of credit. Pac was under estimated.

    2:1 odds for pac, how was he underestimated.

    Fact is Hatton leaves his right hand down all the ****ing time and eats left hooks for breakfast lunch and dinner. Should have learned after getting bashed into the ring post from Floyd.
