If I was managing Pac's career at this point, I'd rather see him clear out the lightweight division than go on to fight hatton at 140.
The crazy thing about him is that as dominant as he is, he's still a work in progress. I've never seen him use his right hand so well and accurately as against Diaz (yeah hes a bum). Still If I were Pac's trainer I'd have him work on his overall game a bit more until he moved up to yet another weight division.
Let his body catch up to adjusting to the weight for 2 minutes. Fight Valero and a few other contenders at lightweight, then entertain the idea of fighting Hatton. (Of course as a fan, I wanna see him fight Hatton asap).
he should unify the division.. then to 140! and see whats going on there.. dont think he can go higher that that.. but who knows... i think he's the reincarnation of bruce lee!!!! wwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa tahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! http://www.bruce-lee-video.com/images2/left.jpg=http://www.thesweetscience.com/images/3507/manny_pacquiao_240x230_083105.jpg
Well I don't think Ricky Hatton will be around for too much longer, he says himself he might have one or two fights in him so if Manny is to take him on, it will probably have to be in 2009 sometime.
I'd like to see him have two fights at Lightweight to prove his quality once more, and then fight Hatton late in 2009 to build his legacy.
He'll be knocked out by Valero, and then you can take your assinine opinion on a black boxer being on the botom of the pfp ratings, along with Pac the Asian, and Joe the causcasian and toilet them with your brain degenerate. You should've saw what this clown posted when I told him that I thought the pfp rankings are a joke. He even assumed I was black too without really knowing. He asked me if I was OFFENDED of the top 10 pfp list. He must've had his mind programmed to answering those coalition guys or something lol.
What the .....
:haha:
Valero in November
Winner of Campbell/Guzman early 09 for history.
Winner of Casamayor/Marquez mid 09 for validation
Ricky Hatton late 09 for undisputed junior welter champ.
capped off finally by....
MAYWEATHER MID 2010 FOR ALL THE MARBLES!!!!:boxing:
If pac doesn't get hatton this nov.(hopefully he will) Valero should be the best bet money wise but hopefully it would be at 135 and not at 130(pac has difficulty making this weight and has affected his performance). He's a monster at LW with no weight problems affecting him the way we saw him yesterday. WBC super light champ Timothy Bradley is another top contender for him(a very good test prior to hatton/Malignaggi winner) as the elite lightweight's been tied up.
:boxing:
MONEY ROUTE
Valero and then Hatton
WHAT I LIKE
Valero - To Finally put an end to the KO Hype
Winner of JMM-Cassamayor - 1st fight of 2009
Winner of Cambell-Guzman - 2nd fight of 2009
Ricky Hatton @140 - 3rd fight of 2009
then Go back to 135 for
Winner of Katsidis-Juan Diaz - 1st 2010
Againts whoever looks good at this point
He should fight Valero for his Nov. date then get ready for the winner of Campbell Vs. Guzman for early next year, maybe late Feb. or early March. I only see 2 maybe 3 fights before he moves up to 140.
I just hope freddie roach will stop halucinating, honestly I dont see Pacman against Hatton as the fight fans really wanted.
the next move for Pac is to take on Edwin Valero, I believe he'd exposed Valero and show him he doesnt belong in the same ring with the best fighter pound for pound.
then unified the lightweight belt, I think Casamayor will beat Marquez and so is Nate Campbell beating Joan Guzman, but baby bull beats both, Juan Diaz will avenge its loss to Campbell. and I look forward to Pacquiao vs Juan Diaz for the undiputed lightweight title in 2009.
