Man, I'm pretty excited to see this fight (coming from a DLH fan..)

Better chin?
Harder hitting?
Weight differences?

Explain.

I thnk it's going to be an absolute war. I really think it's going to be a classic.

Better chin - Pac-man, Hatton nearly got KTFO by Lazcano.
Harder hitting - Pac-Man, made Oscar quit.

It's at Hatton's weight but he's never been the same since his defeat to Floyd, he just looks fragile now when he gets hit with big punches.

Manny has explosive power and insane speed, i think he stops Hatton in the mid to late rounds.

I agree with Pac having the better chin but there is no way he hits harder than Hatton, think Hattons got this one by stoppage

i think itll be a GREAT fight... but i just dont think ricky has the talent to deal with pacmans overall speed & arsenal

I'll bet 50k on Pac-man with someone if they want it?

Wait, whos quicker, Pacquiao or Mayweather?

We have only seen Pacquiao once above 135 and it was against a Weight drained DLH (great win take nothing away from him i picked pacquiao to win before the fight anyhow) So the weight advantage has to go to Hatton.

Power is a bit of a mystery Hatton was never a HUGE puncher anyway but he does have a punch, we have only seen him against Lazcano and Malignaggi since Mayweather and he looked shabby against Lazcano but brilliant against Malignaggi. His chin seems to be a little shaky but take into account we havn't seen Pacquiaos chin tested at above 130 yet. In neither the Diaz nor DLH fight was Pacquiao hit squarely.

It's a pick em fight for me I may go with Pacquiao SD.

Yeah, the world awaits to see Mannys power punch limit.

its hard to tell they have different styles... floyd has a more set stance where his feet stay flat and as soon as you come in he flinches fast and moves out or rolls.. where pacman seems to be on his toes a lot and bounces in and out... they both do their own style very fast... hand speed? i think thats also damn close... floyds hands are quick.. but to say pacmans arent just as quick would be ridiculous...
