Hatton-Pacquiao: Boxing History or a Mismatch?

[neils7147933]

Both Hatton and Pacquiao have much better potential matchups IN THEIR ACTUAL WEIGHT CLASSES then setting up a spectacle like this...

Pacman would beat Hatton up, seriously, he is Hattons worst nightmare. He is too quick, moves in and out of raneg quickly, great footwork, lateral movement, up and down combo's...Hatton will be chasing shadows

hatton too big for pac,and i argue that hatton wins by knock out,pac won't go the distance at 140

to everyone who says that this is a mismatch, who don't you bet your money for hatton if you are 100% sure that he will win so that he is not too underdog on the betting. For me this will be a great fight, much better than pacquiao delahoya fight and i'm sure pacquiao will KO hatton. I'll bet my money for pacquiao just like before, easy money!.

everytime pacquiao fights there are some ****** critics thinks that he will not win, look what happened barrera and delahoya became a human punchingbag. morales, diaz, marquez? all of then kiss the ground.

just wait for the fight night and don't make any excuses if PACMAN prove you all wrong!!!

I make this a 50/50

This article is just laying the foundations, so if Hatton beats Pac, he will get no credit. Hatton is not the favourite for this fight. I think he can win, but he is not the favourite. I guarantee that Hatton will not get anywhere near the credit he should if he does manage to beat Pac. Articles like this prove it.

edit: Just realised this article was from last year before Pac beat De La Hoya. Render what I said null and void.

[MakeDamnSure]

I think people should bet on Hatton more so he shouldn't be the underdog instead of running your mouth like a ***** and can't even bet on Hatton.

Your opinion is not worth the effort you expend in typing it out. Why not take up a new hobby, one you can excel at? Like staring at the wall and silently sobbing...

People are now picking Pacquiao to beat Hatton? Unless Hatton has been extremely damaged by losing to Floyd I can't see that ever happening.

it is not the people who picks the fight, its the promoter who sets the fight. and for your information it is hatton who is so much eager to fight pacquiao. have you watched the interview of hatton before and after the pacquiao delahoya fight? he really wants to fight pacquiao, because PACMAN is the one of the most talk about and popular boxer in this time, especially when he beated delahoya. Most of the boxer want to fight pacquiao, for what reason? BIG PAY DAY!
