Pacquiao Should Take Hatton Out After Six, Says Roach

[znarfv_y2k8]

Well said...

thats ******ed, getting a new trainer isn't going to magically make Hatton a boxing master peice.

cut with the BS about Mayweather being leagues better than Pacquiao, Mayweather has better defense, that's it. Pacquiao is a superior offensive fighter by far and fights non stop for 12 rounds.

You are forgetting how much Pacquiao has improved since the Marquez fight, and the fact that he's not cutting 16 lbs in 1 day anymore. Pacquiao has much better defense and an incredible right hook, compared to his days at 130.

If anyone has improved, it's Pacquiao. Hatton looked bad against Lazcano and average against Malignaggi. FFS Malignaggi went 11 with Hatton, how is Hatton gonna even hurt a guy like Pacquiao.

If Hatton tries to box he is signing his own death warrant against the Pac man. Not only is he fighting a south paw, but he will get beaten to the punch every minute of the fight. Really, Hatton is made for Pacquiao, I always thought this would be the perfect matchup to showcase Pacquiaos skills.

I also co-sign...more power!!!

if i remeber it correctly, ring magazine was bought by oscar who promotes ricky hatton..of course, hatton their money maker mate...money talks....

The Ring's ratings are not produced by the magazine, they are produced by a large panel of highly respected boxing experts who do not work for The Ring - one of those experts works for boxingscene.com. (As I've already pointed out earlier in the thread but I guess you missed it).

the thing that scares me is how Hattons face looked after taking punches from a guy like Malignaggi. i'm banking on the fight being stopped, probably not an all out KO, Hatton will be cut up too much before Pacquiao even needs to knock him out.

In the first round I can't even see him not drawing blood, De La Hoya had puffy eyes in the first round, and he's known for having a solid chin. Diaz cut in the second I believe ( or was it the first). Hatton is a bleeder, no matter which way you spin it.

Can Manny fight on the inside?

I think he will cut Hatton to shreds. He always seems to damage his opponents.

I think it will be stopped on cuts, not a KO.

He can, but I think he doesn't need to.

You're all rookies if you think Manny stands a chance. The lil warrior is good but he has never fought anyone who punches as hard as Ricky (cuz Oscar didn't even get to hit the lil bastard). Ricky has very good hand speed even tho Manny is faster. Hatton has by far more power. Manny won't be ready for the smothering charging style of Hatton. His face is gonna churn when Ricky hits him with one of those crunching body shots. Hatton is absolutely RELENTLESS the entire round the entire fight. Manny has a weak defense and often gets caught (he does have a good chin though). He wont be ready for Hatton's style.. Don't buy the hype of Manny beating up on Oscar because we all know Vic Darchinyan would've pounded him at this point. Hatton looked great against Paulie who happens to be a very tactical boxer. Hatton breaks him down in round 10.

Paulie is an offensive fighter like Pc. He was very slippery and went backwards the entire fight, so it was difficult for Hatton to land his best shots. But he still hit him enough and stopped him.

Pac wont go backwards, so Hatton may be able to land much more.

But i agree with u. It dioes seem Hatton is made for Pac. He takes too much.

I see it as a great little guy versus a good bigger guy.


I wonder if Pac will clinch on the inside?

BE SERIOUS!

PRETTY BOY FLOYD DOES EVERYTHING BETTER THAN MANNY PACQUIAO!

MAYWEATHER HAS BY FAR THE BEST THROWN TO LANDED RATIO IN BOXING (MOST PRECISE AND EFFECTIVE OFFENSIVE FIGHTER)

...AND BY FAR THE BEST DEFENSE (FOLLOWED BY WRIGHT, CLOTTEY, DAWSON)

SO GO AHEAD... TELL ME ONE THING THAT PACMAN DOES BETTER THAN MAYWEATHER!!

39-0 or 48-3? COME ON MAN DO THE MATH... UNDEFEATED VS 1 LOSS EVERY 15 FIGHTS.

PEACE

Pacman has the LION HEART and NO FEAR, the SPEED, the Left Straight Killer Punch and most of all Pacman has the BALLS, not just like PBF controversially lost to JLC, who duck Margarito, COtto, etc. LOL
