Hatton Back in Training, Prepares For Manny Pacquiao

[Home town hero]

We go through this **** before every fight.

Hatton is 10lb lighter going into a 3 week longer training camp.

Of course he's going to make weight.

Even if he where 10 lb heavier going into a normal length training camp he would make weight.

hatton has his weight on a yoyo string.

[Pugilistic™]

Hatton will give Pacquiao a good fight.

[Johnny Rebel]

It's crazy how quick and often he goes from fat to ripped and vice versa.

Ricky has a round face so he looks like he's heavier then he really is. He gains 20-30 pounds between fights which gives him a double chin and makes his face looks swollen, but his body stays ripped. Ricky has been pretty good about not yo yo dieting (he's been laying off the fast food and eating healthy) since the Floyd fight. Ricky is at the age where taking the time he does off, enables him to go through his rigorous and long training camps without burning himself out before he gets in the ring.

i want to see how they would train. i have not seen hatton train before.
i have seen manny train in the 24/7, and he works hard. can hatton work as hard as manny does?

[Mr. Philadel]

Under Graham, he would have to do 15 rounds throwing everything full bore, in the week leading upto the fight.

Ricky does pile the pounds on and IT WILL catch up with him eventually…. I hope not against Manny, talk of him not making weight is ridiculous, under Mayweather his diet is even stricter (He used to have the odd beer under Graham). Hatton knows this is a career defining fight he isn't going to be taking it easy!! If he can get into the mind set he was in against Koztya Tzyu he will beat Manny as he will break his heart walking through everything he throws at him. Can Manny hit as hard as KT? I don’t think so…. Plus Manny has looked great at high weights (i.e. lightweight and welter) when he is facing a static target, Hatton isn't a static target and throws body punches from odd angles.

Anyone who thinks Manny is going to be a monster at light welter need to think (I think he could be by the way) he hasn’t really been tested at lightweight and I am not even going to add in about him being a welterweight as it’s a non fight due to De La Hoyas weight issues, therefore to step into the ring with the linear WORLD CHAMPION at light welter (**** the "belt holders") that’s a totally different proposition, also on the subject of weight, I think Manny will stay light to enhance his speed, however Hatton will come on fight night at around 147 to 150 therefore once he catches Manny he will be able to physically get the better of him.

Those who complain about Hatton's style…. It isn't a tickling contest in there and underestimate Hatton's boxing skills at your peril.

hatton works pretty hard...... in the mayweather/hatton 24/7 he was really working...... its just the drills he was doing were pretty ****** imo....... they didn't really teach any technical skills.... that changes with sr. i assume

If hatton will be 147 to 150, then hatton and pac would have the same weight at fight night... Since pacquiao weighs 148 during DLH fight... Butthe speed was still there...

This fight is a war both fighters have the style of coming forward... May the best man win...

Pacquiao by late TKO or UD...
