    I think the old Ricky who bullies and mugs his opponents and grabs and clinches his opponents to the ropes will be best to take on Manny's style and speed.

    I think the overrated trainer will try to turn Ricky into boxing more and it could hurt him in the upcoming (hopefully) Pacquiao-Hatton match.

    He might try to box more at first instead of being the Ricky we all know. He might give a few precious rounds away that way and might take more straight lefts than he would with his old style in the beginning.

    i think Pacquiao stops Hatton around the 9th. Ricky tries to use what Floyd teaches him at the wrong time against the wrong opponent and by the time he realizes his mistake and turns back into the old ricky , manny had already done too much damage.

    Thoughts?
    if you want to see the improvement floyd sr has brought to Hatton, just watch the Lazcano fight and then watch the Malignaggi fight. Floyd Sr is quite simply the best trainer in boxing today and he works to make best of the fighters natural skills rather than forcing the fighter into an unsuitable style. Hatton fought one of the best fights of his career against Malignaggi and if Malignaggi didn't hold on for dear life on a couple of occasions, Hatton would've been the first to legitimately KO Malignaggi.

      that may be but i'm talking about just for the pac fight.

      the old wrestling hatton might be best to fight pac rather than the improved hatton.

        that's true but if that would be the way that he needs to beat pac, Floyd Sr will make him fight that way.
