Manny Pacquiao Targets Ricky Hatton For 2008

[DrewWoodside]

I feel like Freddie Roach has no interest in comitting to exhibition fights, hope boxing doesn't turn into the WWE

might be a win win for pacquiao considering how low his expectations are

unless he gets KTFO

wtf is pacquiao thinking? he's a great small fighter no doubt about it but he can't beat everybody. there's a reason why there's weight division in boxing. one of them is the difference in size and strength. pac maybe taller than hatton but it doesn't mean he's stronger. pac's gonna be a victim of his own hype. he doesn't have even a slight chance against the hitman. sure it's not all about strenght, there are other things to consider like boxing skills and speed but guess what, ricky ain't no turtle. he too is fast both in his hands and feet. pacquiao needs to wake up before his dream turns into nightmare

If Pacquiao wins his rematch against Marquez, then this fight would make sense in terms of making money for both fighters. They both have a lot of fans and have exciting styles. But I think Ricky is too big for Manny even though they may be of the same height or reach. But if they both want instant cash, then this fight wil sell.

hatton will stop pacquiao with body shots.

lol hatton will destroy him

i love manny but if he went up that much in weight to fight hatton he will get destroyed.. hatton might not be the best but he can BOX manny cant and his punches will break manny down and prob in a few rounds

PAC shouldn't look past JMM cause there is an upset brewing (I dont think it will be an upset cause we all know PAC = overrated) PAC can't beat Hatton cause to do so you need a jab in which PAC dont have!
P.S The only reason PAC gets credit is for beating Morrales + Barrera BUT you fools need to realise that Morales and Barrera killed each other before PAC came along...
P.S2 Freddie said b4 the Barrera2 fight that PAC has added his jab to his artillery -> I didnt see it?

To me this feels like another money fight. I mean it could have the possibility of being exciting and who knows maybe even competitive, but to me Manny wouldn't be as effective at 140. I know fights like Hatton/Pacquiao and Mayweather/DLH II are gonna make a lot of money, but to me there's better matchups for all of them and more meaningful fights in their respective divisions.

I already said this before that Marquez is an easy prey for Pac. Pac will knock the bald, slumping and aging Marquez out. There is no threat for Pac in the superfeatherweight division. You guys know how Pac fight. If Marquez slugs it out with Pac early in the round, he will get KO'd early. No boxer at SFW can stand toe-to-toe with Pac. Marquez' counterpunching skills will no longer work. Pac will unload successive and lightning, dozens of solid straights, uppercuts and left-right hooks to the body. Expect Marquez hair fallout by the end of round 3. Marquez will look like Yul Bryner (R.I.P.) after round 6, the same round he gets KO'd.
