against Hatton? 1st off let me say that I hope Pac does fight Hatton 1st and I hope he wins because Pac vs Floyd would just be special and I think a win over Hatton makes the fight alot bigger.
However, people are acting like this is just a forgone conclusion. Hatton is not a bum. Your talking about a guy that has beat Malignaggi, Castillo, Collazo, Tszyu, and the other big guy who's name has slipped right now. I swear Hatton is the most underrated guy in boxing right now. People act like he's a bum.
All this is coming from a guy who said that Pac would beat Oscar way before anyone was saying it and gave good reason for it but now Im also saying that Hatton could easily beat Pac. Some people say that Castillo was shot but how is he shot and Oscar isnt? The people who are saying that Pac will kill Hatton are the same people who were saying that Oscar would kill Pac because he was bigger and Pac, lost to EM, and nearly lost twice to JMM. I give those same reasons for Hatton. Hatton is bigger, stronger, is just as fast as Pac, and I think he's much more of a threat to Pac at 140 then those other guys he nearly lost to at those lower weights. I mean this is a guy who bullied and made Tszyu quit. This is a guy who punished Malignaggi easier then Cotto did. He's not a joke and I think Oscar made Pac look alot better then he is.
Dont get me wrong, Pac is a straight beast but Im just saying that people act like he's the Termiantor for killing Oscar and he isnt. He's not going to walk through Hatton at all. A fight with Hatton will be night & day from the Oscar fight. The only thing Oscar had on Pac was height. He wasnt quick anymore, he seemed to be very weak at that weight, and I dont even think he was the harder hitter. He didnt even come in the ring with the size advantage. You cant say that Im taking away from Pac's win because I called this before hand and if anyone thinks that Oscar was Oscar then there smoking. He was clearly a shell of himself while Hatton is in his prime and looks even better under Floyd Sr.
Again, Im not saying that Hatton will win and I dont even want Hatton to win but I think its a toss up fight and if Pac wasnt a Southpaw then I would definatly pick Hatton but I think him being a Southpaw could cause him trouble. Again, this is not Oscar. Hatton has seen guys like Pac with Floyd & Collazo but Pac hasnt fought anyone thats going to be as ferioucious as Hatton. It will be a shock to his system just like I said Margarito will be a shock to Cotto's system. It wont be as bad because I think Pac is P4P the better fighter and I think he will find a way to win but unless he catches him with a blind lefty punch then he will have a tough fight with Hatton
