[Pullcounter]

hatton will do what he always does hug his way through the fight

hatton must hug to win.

That was actually a low blow..... Someone should make a slow motion Gif of that punch.

Low blow??? I thought it was a headbutt right in the chin... Watch it again and look at where Torrecampo's head was at the time Manny got buzzed.

Kostya is the perfect blue print/game plan againts Pacquiao.. Hatton aint gonna out box Manny... Hattons gotta get grimmy and smother Pac... It dosen't matter what stance a fighter is if you smother his artilery... Hatton could **** with Pacquiao to the body at close quarters all day... If he fought like he did againts Paulie, Pacquiao would murder him.

Do's and Don'ts for Hatton

1. Take four to give one - Hatton can't avoid Pacquiao's punches all the time. Manny is one of the fastest hands, if not the fastest, in boxing. For every 1 punch that Hatton would give, he should not be afraid to receive 4 power punches back.

2. Don't underestimate Pacquiao power punches - Remember that out of 53 fights of Pacquiao, 36 has ended in KO. That's 7 out of 10 knockout power.

3. Don't spend all your power punch energy in the first few rounds - Pacquiao hasn't been knocked out by good to great fighters for almost a decade, so don't expect him to go down in the first few rounds.

4. Don't wait for Pacquiao to get tired - Pacquiao has a reputation of having freakish stamina reservoir. The man is a throwback to an era where rounds are more than a dozen.

5. Don't expect Pacquiao's speed to diminish due to weight - Remember that since 2004, Pacquiao is used to entering the ring as essentially a welterweight (146 lbs. during his 1st Marquez fight).

6. Don't overrelly on hugging - Pacquiao hands are blistering fast during inside exchanges. Manny also prove over and over again, that he has the quick reflex to move his head away from uppercuts after an inside exchange.

7. Don't box technically with Pacquiao - Only technical masters can pull it off (e.g. Marquez). Speed, timing and accuracy are the bread and butter of Pacquiao. His rhythmn don't have a regular pattern, making it hard to predict and time.

8. Don't rely solely on blocking the punches with gloves - Pacquiao has long added to his offensive arsenal fake jabs, up and down feints, with 3 or 4 punch fast combos from different angles. Manny smart fast footwork also ensure of him having high percentage of accurate punches landing when faced with gloves blockage alone.

9. Don't follow Pacquiao in the ring without punching - Pacquiao moves in and out, side to side, throwing trajectory angle power punches while moving at an unpredictable direction at an uncanny speed.

10. Don't block Pacquiao's way without head movement - Fighters who stood directly in front like a statue with the intent of cutting off Pacquiao's movement has received the worst beating (e.g. Diaz).

you need to have a new title that says This is why hatton will lose!

I figured that you would point out facts that Hatton can use, not what Pac will use

The OP would make a terrible general.

"Our objective is to take and hold the town. In order to achieve this we won't walk in there with our shirts off without any weapons. We won't announce our presence by wearing pink suits and playing trombones. We definitely won't attack in a straight line from one direction and it would be ill advised to travel to a different town altogether. Any questions?"

hatton's not going to be able to get past "#1". Four hard shots and he's stunned, four more and he's down and out.

Thank you, come again.

Im sure your a crap one too, thats why you make ****** statements.

Hatton has manhandled everyone at 140 so far, he should try to to the same with Manny, who is not an inside fighter. Tire him out with wrestling. work the body and yes take some shots because Hatton's defense is not good enough.

If Mayweather had trouble putting the distance he preferred between him and Hatton, everyone else will.

this cracked me up

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to squealpiggy again.

if that was a lucky shot whats your excuse for this

Spoon fed competition or old shot fighters where its easy to do , Manny is a class up on Hatton just as Floyd was .
