Hatton doesnt have it anymore

Haha I love reading heavy opinion threads as a new poster. Gives me a feel for how things are here. I love it. To the point, Hatton is definitely at the end of his rope as an elite fighter. I still think he can go out there and give Manny a fight though. I do believe Manny will pull out a win against Ricky, but Ricky is going to give Manny problems with some solid combos and his general toughness.

hattons is gonna get the shit knocked out of him in this fight

paulie is slick... but he isnt THAT slick... if he was THAT slick he wouldnt of been tagged all night from hatton You can believe that it's your opinion. I believe he is that slick and hatton can get to anyone, thats my opinion.

paulie is slick... but he isnt THAT slick... if he was THAT slick he wouldnt of been tagged all night from hatton

i think putting pacman and paulie in the same sentence is a bit ridiculous... hatton has good footwork, but when you compare it to pacmans footwork , its quite inferior in my opinion... and i also think floyd CHOSE the way he fought ricky, it wasnt that he couldnt keep away, he chose to fight on the inside.. he didnt even try to move away, when ricky came in he just ducked low and made him miss... pacman will be moving in and out on his toes like he always does, and IMO he does that much better than hattonMalinaggi is slicker than Pacman, thats all I said. malinaggi has two elite attributes, slickness and a great chin. Pacman isn't a slick, stick and mover the way malinaggi is forced to be, Pacman has other weapons. It's like saying for example: judah doesn't have as good a chin as ben tackie, just because ben tackie is clearly not as good a fighter as judah and judah doesn't have a bad chin doesn't change the fact that tackie has a better chin than Judah.

it was easy because ricky is one dimensional... he has one fight plan, one game... if u figure it out, he has nothing else to fall back on, he only knows his style.

I think Pacman is going to win, but he will get closed down in that what Hatton wants to do, Hatton has outstanding footwork and would be able to close down anyone. PBF is the ultimate defencive and evasive fighter and Hatton closed him down to the point that PBF changed tact and started using Hattons ability to close down against him. Malinaggi is a "slicker" fighter than Pacman he has to be, he hasn't got anything else other than a jab and slickness and He never stopped Hatton getting to him, only difference being Malinaggi had no idea what the hell to do when Hatton got in range. If pacman think all he has to do is work on what he does while ricky can't get in to him then he will lose. Fortunately for you Arum isn't that stupid and he knows Ricky can, so expect pacman to have a strategy based on knowing Hatton will get to him. i think putting pacman and paulie in the same sentence is a bit ridiculous... hatton has good footwork, but when you compare it to pacmans footwork , its quite inferior in my opinion... and i also think floyd CHOSE the way he fought ricky, it wasnt that he couldnt keep away, he chose to fight on the inside.. he didnt even try to move away, when ricky came in he just ducked low and made him miss... pacman will be moving in and out on his toes like he always does, and IMO he does that much better than hatton

pacman moves in and out too fast to be held up by hattons boring clinches all night, besides the fact that floyd is going to try and teach hatton how to out box pacman, and i just dont think he has the talent to do so...I think Pacman is going to win, but he will get closed down in that what Hatton wants to do, Hatton has outstanding footwork and would be able to close down anyone.

hatton will wrestle pac to a SD. hatton is too strong. pacman moves in and out too fast to be held up by hattons boring clinches all night, besides the fact that floyd is going to try and teach hatton how to out box pacman, and i just dont think he has the talent to do so...

I agree Hatton is not as fast, but is a lot more powerfull, he will get hit, no doubt, but Hatton can take punches well, his problem is cuts, his skin round the eyes is like paper, and Manny even with jabs will cut him up. Either way a great fight, worthy of £15, both good guys of boxing, both world class, this is what boxing is about, there is no losers in this fight, we will get a great fight with outdoubt, they will make lots of money and both go on to big fights regardless of who wins. I think it really could go either way no he isn't and no he can't. lazcano had him on queer street(visiting calzaghe) before the ref intervened to alertly tie his shoelace. lazcano was a lightweight too who wasn't known for being a puncher. poor hatton.

you knows it wig doggg.:439: dont go hating on hatton the mighty hitman bitch ass white punk.:bottle: hehehe Bitch ass white punk? lol That pharse was last used when the man in your avatar was in fashion

hatton will wrestle pac to a SD. hatton is too strong.

Hatton eats Bradley.

I think it really could go either way i agree.. hatton hits you and hits you hard.. we'll see if pac can handle true 140 power... it should be an awesome fight, maybe a pacman throwback... ala pacman vs morales 1 & 2... or hatton vs tszyu... let's all hope!.. cheers!..:439:

please don't tell me this is another yank jumping on the Manny bandwagon? Anyone who has seen ALL hattons fights knows that he is in a new lease of Life with Mayweather. Hatton previous trainer Billy Graham, whilst OK for domestic and shot world class fighters was not upto the requirements of training hatton for real world class fighters. His advise was to go out, go forward and hit the body and don't worry about defense. Now Mayweather has taught him defense, ringmanship and when to use his power, just ask Paulie and all the people who were kissing his ass before Hatton made his corner throw the towel in. The Manny fight will be a real test, but Hatton is like a new fighter IMO, and the Hatton people prayed he would become, Manny will not know what has hit him fighting a prime Hatton at 140, if Manny tries running like Paulie did Hatton will walk him down, and once in the corner pound his body like nothing he has experienced before Good. I think manny is hoping hatton does the same. I also think mayweather sr. has improved hatton, but it will not be enough. If hatton tries to walk pac down like he did with paulie, pac will make him pay. Pac will hit him with combinations hatton has not experienced. All of hattons most recent opponents don't throw punches in bunches like pacman does. Paulie doeasn't throw combos like the pacman, doesn't have the workrate, quickness, and definitely lacks the power pac posseses. I also think hatton is fast, but not as fast as pac... Paulie is not in the same league as pacman.. and you will see why ..:439:

floyd sr has given hatton new life.
