    Exactly.

    Manny gives Hatton another L. Mannys style spells nothing but trouble for hatton, I honestly see this one being a bloody mess for hatton look what a blown up lazcano did to hattons face!!! Manny is quick and willing to ****, unlike mayweather who played cautious until he knew hatton was ready for the taking. Everybody is making out that Hatton is so much bigger than Pacquiao but you'll be surprised come fight night that that they won't be much in it size wise at all (an inch is nothing, and as for build and bone mass/structure i'd say theres nothing in it, manny may even be bigger)

    Pacquiao as proved he can brawl/pressure and box and going up the scales he hasn't lost much of his skill set if not improved, any unbiased follower of the science should know that with no hiccups manny takes this

    Without falling for the hype of what happened in the DLH fight, as I'm more than aware that beating a weight drained multi millionaire now part time boxer in reality isn't a major feat, but the things it did show/prove, is that manny is a more advanced fighter compared to the likes of hatton.

    The only up for hatton in this fight is that he now has a world class trainer compared to billy graham, who can work on hattons defense, head movement and timing.

    But as you'll say this is all opinion, which your entitled to say but this opinion as logic unlike some other posters opinions.

      Pac is just coming into his prime in my opinion. He weighed in at 142 pounds for the Dlh fight, at 140 he looks basically the same. I just cant see Hattons face holding up against a southpaw with power and speed like Manny. Styles make fights and in this case Hattons relentless agression gets him knocked out. Also Hattons wide open for the straight left.

This is a man whos worse ever display at 140 was beating juan lazcano by 11 rounds in a comeback fight after his only loss. He made Tsyzu quit on his stool and tsyzu was not a weight drained oscar. He was also faster and outboxed the supposedly superfast and skilfull boxer in Paulie malignaggi. Also Paulie had never been stopped, he felt Hattons power in round 2 and did not want to know for the rest of the fight, did cotto manage to do that to paulie? No i don't think he did.
        Now all the people saying Pacaman will win this easily, I remember pre Oscar fight most people aying that Hatton would bully Pacman. Now because Pacman beat a weight drained 37 year old punch bag hes the best in the business. Pacman has been KO'ed of people with NO WHERE near as much power as Hatton. IMO Hatton wins this easily, if you don't agree then bet some points


        If nobody takes your offer, I'll bet you all your points...

          perfect! and i hope the whole 12 weeks isnt just for him to make weight like i know has been the prob in the past, ricky used to come into camp so heavy that the whole camp was concentrated on him making weight and not on improving his skill, hopefully he hasnt blow up to much ( which i doubt) since the pauli fight, and if he did he should hit a lil 4 week mini camp just to start trimmin that weight down. ricky imo, has what it takes to beat manny but he better be on his a game and in the same shape he was in when he fought kosta cuz he will have to really turn up the heat in the last half of the fight and make manny work so ricky can start to bully him around a lil, if he can do that he'll have a great chance at knocking the p4p best fighter off the latter.

            Hatton is 43-0 undefeated linear champ at 140

            He's like 0-2 Floyd and Collazo at 147.

              Hatton did give Mayweather a little timing problem earlyin the fight. Problem is Pacquiao has gotten so much more accurate, if Hatton comes straight in as he does head exposed it will be worse than the check hook it will be a straight lead left from a low center of gravity...it'll be the cornerpost allover again...Did you see how Dlh head was snapping back?

                      Your bets record is wrong. You're not undefeated anymore.

                      Carry on.
