First - He's a southpaw with fast hands and unpredictable movement.

Second - He's an elite fighter like Pacman.

Third - He's retired so has more time to spare.

Fourth - He's a good friend of Rickys and would probably like to help him out.

Honestly, I'd say Calzaghe. He has more then enough power, he has the speed and provides the angles

Good luck getting Calzaghe to spar with Hatton. You're gonna need it.

The guy that has similarities to Pacquiao and would give any fighter good, tough rounds in the gym is Valero.

HELL NO!!!! Valero is going to mess up your style against someone like Pac.. All Valero can do is simulate Pac's power and southpaw stance thats it... He can't simulate speed, movement, accuracy, angles, etc, etc... The best sparring partner to simulate Pacquiao hands down is Victor Ortiz or Zab Judah...

How about Devon Alexander ? he's a pretty skilled Southpaw, whos a Jr Welterweight and is pretty fast with good technique. Im sure he would be available.

I would like to see Zab Judah but thats probably not possible. So Devon Alexander is the realistic choice and the best sparring partner available.

Devon who?

Hatton’s British trainer Lee Beard conceded that “there’s nobody in England that can get anywhere near what Manny does so it’s a bit of a lost cause.”

"Pacquiao is an extremely strong fighter, got a variety of punches, good on his feet and he can go forward or go backwards. Manny is not just fast, he's very heavy-handed too."

"You are not going to get anyone like that.”

Who, in your opinion can simulate Pac's unpredictable movement?

Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Collazo.

According to Beard, Hatton is pretty much ****ed.

Devon who?

He is a young (22 or 23 I forget) up and commer in the 140 pound division. he is from St. Loius and is trained by the guys that trained Cory Spinks. He is a quick lefty with a massive ammount of boxing skill.

He might do a pretty good Pacman, but he might be to good (you can not have your sparring partners taking away your confidence).

[The Gambler1981]

Pacman is a unique fighter, finding someone that fights like him is nigh impossible.

I would go with some quick lefties, that throw a good jab and a good straight left. It is a waste of time looking for someone to totally emulate Pacman though.

Mayweather Jnr.
