    DLH was old, and Diaz was just not that talented.

    Hatton is the first talented fighter that Pacquiao will face at these higher weights. I think it is gonna be a real test.

    Not to mention, Hatton is by far the strongest fighter Pacquiao will have ever faced, AND Hatton knows how to use that strength extremely well.

    Very early pick and i might change my mind, but i like Hatton by late stoppage

      obviously.

      a prime DLH is a much better fighter.

      But the current Hatton is hardly "past it" and considering how washed up DLH is, Hatton is a MUCH better opponent

        True, but he didnt just beat those guys he destroyed them with relative ease. Almost in an embarrassing way. So in a sense, we may not have even seen the best Pacquiao yet. Hatton could bring that guy out.

          Hatton has slid considerably, even he's not such a stern test for Pacman.

          Watch, we'll all be on the same page once Hatton bleeds his way to a KO.

            i strongly favour Pacman in this match-up

            people forgetting that Hatton's punch resistance is GONE... why do you think he fought Malignaggi to reestablish himself... couldn't risk anyone with a bit of a punch since Mayweather and Lazcano exposed the fact that his chin is gone

              I think Hatton has problems with guys who are quicker than him. He uses his speed to his benefit more than his strength. When's the last time he fought a good southpaw on top of that.

                Hatton has problems against live (and semi live bodies... see the Lazcano fight) bodies

                  I know it's overstated, but speed kills. Pac is too quick for Hatton. It will be more competitive. However, I don't see Hatton being able to take clean power punches for 12 rounds.

                    I think that's obvious. Statistically speaking, Diaz put up a better fight than DLH. And Diaz isn't as nearly as good at Hatton.

                    Pacquiao vs. Diaz is my favorite Pacquiao fight.
