if the fight is signed ill take that bet my friend, now i know i am a die hard Hatton fan so my opinion is not as objective as it perhaps could be, however i really DONT think that the Lazcano punches rocked Hatton as much as people seem to think.
If people have read many of my posts they will know that i havefriends who work the corners for many of the Manchester boxers, including Rickys brother Matthew, i get a fair bit of info that way and the reports that Hatton suspended training for that bout due to a chest infection were actually played down, Billy Graham was not sure Hatton had enough time after the infection to be ready. In light of that and the fact that Hatton won every round against a lighter, quicker opponent i think he did well in his comeback fight really.
Hatton will be the naturally heavier man and carrying the more accumulative punch power so unless Manny avoids the war i still go for Hatton by KO.
What i do agree with though is the fact that Hatton does not have many fights left now and a Pacman fight may well be his swansong.
